How to close hole?

I’m a beginner at 3d scanning and zbrush and i have no idea how to close up a hole.

The mesh is not broken and the hole is caused by improper scanning and scanning software post process. Any idea how to close the hole?

hi !
we cannot see the entire object but as i see,
using classic “close holes” functions (tool>geometry>modify topology>close hole)
can work I guess, tell us.

If not, you can use all brushes to help you close it (move etc). for instance by adding a piece of geometry over the hole (insert sphere, etc)? then dynamesh it ?

Or directly use dynamesh (wich will close holes) but if the hole is ‘complex’ maybe sometimes it will not close it like you want.

I had a couple of thoughts on this. I was thinking, duplicate> zremesh> subD to right rez, then project all to put the details back on. There will be artifacts around the hole area, just smooth them out a bit. I do this when I import from various versions of Make Human.

My other thought on this would be too do a retopo with Zsphere. Never done this, but it might be a good application of the process.

I hope this helps. Close hole dose not always work. Its mostly for repairng broken geometry while sculpring I think.
