scenario-blender-retopology

Featured

Use when turning a dense sculpt, scan or AI-generated mesh into clean topology in Blender, for animation, subdivision or a game low poly with a triangle budget. Also when choosing between QuadriFlow or voxel remesh and manual retopo, placing loops around eyes, mouth and joints, deciding pole placement, setting up a Shrinkwrap cage, fixing volume loss after subdivision, preparing a low poly for baking, or auditing topology for spirals, 6-poles and triangles. Keywords: retopo, retopology, quad remesh, clean up an AI mesh, edge flow, low poly, bake prep.

Skill Content

# Blender retopology Expert retopology is a plan executed with the fewest loops that capture the forms and let the mesh deform: loops close around eyes, mouth and joints, poles sit where nothing moves, and the subdivided surface, not the cage, matches the sculpt. An agent without a mouse can build every piece of this from data, but it reaches expert quality only on the parts it plans explicitly. Automatic remeshing is a finish for static assets and a start for everything else. If a sibling skill named here is missing from your available skills, ask the user to install it (`npx skills add scenario-labs/skills --skill <name>`); unattended, proceed from tool schemas and flag the gap. **REQUIRED BACKGROUND:** scenario-blender-expert (execution channel, review loop, 5.2 API changes). Toolkit: [`scripts/bx_retopo.py`](scripts/bx_retopo.py) (`import sys; sys.path.append("<skills>/scenario-blender-retopology/scripts"); import bx_retopo as R`), all coordinates in the sculpt's local space. ## Stance (the expert delta) - **Map first, as data.** Kaspar draws six layers on the sculpt before any vertex: edge flow, primary creases, secondary (expression-only) creases, articulation, expression bounds, landmarks (BCON22 [00:07:55], shown in frames 00:07:53 to 00:14:38). The agent writes the same map as coordinates and loop counts (landmarks from renders plus `R.surface_point`), then builds. - **Loops are the budget, not vertices.** Articulation minimum (Kaspar after Brian Tindall): lids, ...

scenario-maya-retopology-uv

Use when turning a dense sculpt, scan, ZBrush export or AI-generated mesh into animation-ready or game-ready topology in Maya without a mouse ("clean up this AI mesh", "retopo this character", Quad Draw, Retopologize), testing it deforms before rigging (bad elbow or wrist bend, lids popping through the eyes), or unwrapping UVs, cutting seams, setting texel density, mip-safe padding, UDIMs, lightmap UVs, stacking mirrored shells, or preparing a low poly and cage for baking. Keywords: edge flow, eye and mouth loops, Unfold3D, bake prep.

scenario-zbrush-retopology-export

Use when a ZBrush sculpt, scan or AI-generated mesh must become production topology and files (ZRemesher and guides, the 2026 Retopo brush, reprojecting detail with Project All, rebuilding subdivision levels, UV Master or native unwrap, normal and displacement maps with Multi Map Exporter, GoZ, OBJ or FBX export, scale and axes, Decimation Master, "clean up an AI mesh in ZBrush"), or when detail is lost after ZRemesher, a map is upside down or an export arrives at the wrong size.

scenario-blender-sculpting

Use when sculpting in Blender through Python: sculpt a head, face or bust, a stylized or cartoon character, a creature or a realistic portrait; block out from primitives; cut planes, a jaw or gonial angle, cheekbones; fix a jaw or face that looks like a ball or balloon; stylized hair clumps; eyelids; an expression or smirk; plan remesh or multires resolution; reproduce Clay Strips, Crease, Draw Sharp, Scrape, Grab or mask moves without a tablet; final clay renders; or when a sculpt operator crashes headless.
