>Youtube is full of retards who are poly modelling entire human characters from scratch instead of sculpting them
Imagine learning wrong from the get go and sinking hundreds of hours into doing it wrong and inefficiently. What a nightmare.

ENOUGH OK?
Its because i cant do it. Poly modelling doesnt make sense to me. Its not fair the poly modellers can poly model AND sculpt while i can only sculpt. Even then the moment i need to use a tool or option i just get lost and give up.
All i can do is play digital play-doh and im so sick of seeing you poly modellers outclass me in every instance.
I only.made this thread to sooth my ego and now thats ruined. Im more miserable than ever.

op is right sculpting and retopo is a better workflow. You get normal maps, a checkpoint that your can fall back on, and it is easier to get good topology when your don't have to worry about the shape at the same time. People who practice the poly style are doing things the hard way for a worse end result.

Polymodeling is a thing from the 2000s. None of the professional industry artists from that time use polymodeling now. I know one who now works a decade at Valve.
Load the base human mesh in zbrush and you're already set to sculpt with half the work done. Do you need your 1998 characters? You can retopology them that way and bake normal maps to help with painting textures then turn them off.

Haven't you been here asking if you should be poly-modelling characters and then turning around and telling others that you should never ever do it every time you get told to do it for more than a year at this point?
