Born Digital Sets The Mount 2026 ZBrush Time Attack For November 19

Born Digital will hold The Mount 2026, a ZBrush sculpting time attack produced with CGWORLD, on November 19 at GMO Samurai Studio Yoga in Setagaya, Tokyo. The theme is a sheep, and each artist gets 90 minutes.

Why it matters

The event puts the sculpting process itself on stage for a free, registered audience, and pairs the contest with a walkthrough of ZBrush 2027.0 from the company that distributes and supports the software.

The second edition is free with advance registration. NIKO and Daisuke Narikawa handle commentary, and a session covers ZBrush 2027.0.

The lineup mixes backgrounds: Takosan is a CG character modeler who studied at Tokyo University of the Arts and works on stop-motion with the team torinoco, Masamune is a freelance figure sculptor who moved from clay to digital work, and Hiroki Hayashi is a 3DCG and character artist who came to ZBrush self-taught after stints as a systems engineer and compositor.

After the 90-minute round, the artists return for an after talk, then a session introduces features in ZBrush 2027.0. The closing segment opens the same sheep theme to the floor as a 15-minute jump-in challenge.

  • Takosan: CG character modeler, Tokyo University of the Arts graduate
  • Masamune: freelance figure sculptor working mainly in ZBrush
  • Hiroki Hayashi: 3DCG and character artist, self-taught in ZBrush
