    I bought it,too. Learned what :)
    But for nice Tesselation i had to connect each Side of my Plane with 20 Edges.
    Otherwise the Tesselation look like "wobble"

    Thanks

    Thanks guys, Glad it's getting well recieved.
    Gazu - Yes in Marmoset you will need to have already quite a dense plane for tessellation and displacement to work well. Without features like Parralax occlusion mapping we are a little limited in marmoset when it comes to displacement. Just make sure the mesh is dense enough and it should be okay.

    This Video is also very nice:

    Hey Harford, i like that you are telling every little step.
    For zBrush beginners like me its very good when you do that.

    In a lot of Video Tutorials the Instructor doesnt say how he have made the next step, because he maybe used a shortcut. Thats bad for beginners. Because beginners didnt know how to reach this step now.

    So in your Video Tutorial i became problems when it comes to the Alpha "Tab" on the upper right corner in your zBrush. In the first moment i really didnt know how to transfer the Alpha until i checked out the Menue above a bit ^^ I lost round about 20 minutes to solve that :P

    Its always better to say how you made this step.
    Explain it one time so that all kind of users can follow your tutorial.
    Otherwise beginners will fall in trouble xD ;)

    Maybe it would be cool to make a zBrush Rock Sculpt Tutorial.
    I know that there are a lot of Videos out on YouTube, but 1 good Videos, with maybe different techniques and brushes to reach different rock styles.

    4-5 different Rocks or maybe RockWalls, made with different brushes to demonstrate totaly different looks of rocks :)

    Yeah that would be cool ;)
