Course Description

Have you ever worked on a design that needed to be revised over and over? If so, this course, Fusion 360 and ZBrush for Iterative Design, is the perfect course for you, because it will show you how to produce a design that can be changed on the fly. First, you will build a variable base of your design. Next, apply your own aesthetic style to the design. Finally, you will learn where you can send your design to be mass produced. When you're finished with this modeling and sculpting course, you'll not only understand how to think ahead, but also be set up to save time on future projects with some automated help. Software required: Fusion 360, ZBrush, Meshmixer.
