For this blogpost, I really wanted to delve into something that would be useful for me later on in my travels with ZBrush.  I've noticed while working in my latest clas*, Production Modeling, that I had created many as*ets that I would love to use again.  Making tools for everything single one of them and putting them as separate tools to save seemed like a long and lengthy process. I wondered...Is there a way I could save this stack and use these pieces again later? In researching to find the answer to this question,  I found the Create InsertMultiMesh bu*ton under the Brush pallet.  This bu*ton literally makes your entire project subtool stack available. To Create one, open the ZBrush application.  Under your tool pallet load up a tool that you know has multiple subtools (or you can create one by inserting as*ets as subtools into a tool you already have open) I'm going to use this guy, I created him for one of my second week projects and I like the horns.  Plus the helmet has some features As you can see he has 15 subtools on him.  Okay, this will be a good one to keep, lots of stuff for me to access later!! So, how do we save First, I'm going to go ahead and move my Brush pallet over to the left so you can see. You can do this by click on Brush at the top of the screen, and then click on the little power icon looking bu*ton in the upper left hand corner of that little popup window.  Hold down click and drag it over to where you want it, I'm going to put it over there on the left. Now that it is over there, we can see all the bu*tons.  Woot!  Go Us.. we are one step closer to making our new brush. When you see it pop into the brushes area you know that it completed.  You've just made your brush!  But okay, you made the brush, so You will then have to navigate to where your brushes are stored for your ZBrush.  On my mac they are located in my Applications -> ZBrush -> ZBrushes  (I created my own file in this folder so I could keep track of my own brushes and know where they are.)
