Hi there! I just recognized, that I am still at the very beginning of my "3d career" but anyway: I am so glad, that you guys helped me out!!! I took a look at the zclassroom and it was really helpful. I now can use the basic tools of zbrush and now it is really fun nice program. I should mention that pixologic offers a free full version of zb for 30 days. That is great. Hm. I think I should take a look at what normal maps are?! Because I've never heard of normal maps and I do not know really how they work. Unfortunately in my maya basics book, there is nothing about normal maps on 700 pages... damn I learned the maya modeling basics from free tutorials from simplymaya (really good!) and my maya book. By the way: What is the "sculting tool"?? So far: Thanks again for your help! Great forum, where beginners get help, real help! :bow:
