I’m still learning 3D sculpting in general, so I’m curious how other people work. I barely find myself using alphas except at like, the VERY end, fine-detail stage of things. Is that typical? Do you use different alphas during the earlier stages of the sculpting process?

preferably the fine details should be drawn last. I will often make the mistake of putting fine details up front, at least with zbrush. with nomad I force myself to think carefully about what I’m going to do before starting.
Oh for sure. I mostly mean “should I be using alphas for something other than fine details”
For me mostly just for texture too.
Every once in a while I’ll just mess around and experiment though. 90% trash, 10% happy accidents
Me in the end for fine detail. And very rare using alpha depending on the object I think 
With triplanar for creating complex objects at once. Fun.
To do one tap complex extrusions on high poly objects - fun!

Nice! I saw your triplanar thing in another thread. Clever.
Love discovering your posts. You have great tips, and present them well. Thanks!
