it really amazes me how far these zbrush tutorials have come at this website... they started mostly technical to get people familiar with the tools, and every new one is better than the last. this tut is really great because he mostly talks about sculpting theory, approach, and preference rather than wasting hours talking about the technicals that most of us have already picked up
