Yes, you can do a lot of lower polygon sculpting in surface mode. One of my favorite ways of doodling as you can get a good amount of detail even on a low polygon model. Using both surface and liveclay brushes...
A question, I noticed the triangulated mesh, You do not use (remove stretching) for the surface mode brushes?

[chingchong]

yes i doodled without 'remove stretching' , because i somehow feel that without i can control the results better. but i didnt smooth at all, maybe later

[artman]

Good approach. Crude surface mode form is a good thing,not a bad thing ,you will get better working this way,it already shows in your sketch.
and I also agree about Remove stretching,it resamples the mesh and disturb the details,especially at lower polycounts,IMO its good to be used only when extruding big parts like neck and arms ect...

[chingchong]

some more doodling , dont know what it should be called

[chingchong]

thanx L'ancien regime,
could use that on my gorilla project, which i will probably rework sometime.

and also thanx artman for your comment on posting #24

i refined my posting #24
it has now 800k tris.
it should work with ca. 200k also, but i experienced mesh explosions during the use of LC-tools , so only way for me, was to move to voxels at 800k. I lost some real fine details, but i had to die one death anyway
