ZBrush for iPad First Impressions

ZBrush for iPad dropped and I've been sculpting on the couch all week. Here's the first real test, an alien head that I started as a quick doodle and kept pushing.

It's not a toy. Most of what I reach for in desktop ZBrush is here, and the Pencil makes the sculpting feel closer to clay than a Wacom ever has for me. Having it on the iPad means I'm sketching in 3D at times I'd normally just be scrolling on my phone.

I uploaded the head to Sketchfab so you can spin it around yourself, there's a link on the USDZ Files page. More tests to come.
