I own all of them... The 2 you post are not inro level but you can still start with them.

Each of the Gnomon DVD's take things in Zbrush from a different point of view (ala - the artist doing the DVD).

But the best intro DVD is by far this one http://www.kurvstudios.com/zbrush/ by Glen Southern.

Completely thorough from begining to end.

And it's only $39.95!!!

Yes, i know, i have already order that. But im going to order the next one now.
So which of all ZBrush tuts on Gnomon is best, AFTER that?

Part of that depends on which application you use together with Zbrush.

The Building Creatures Using Zbrush is for XSI.


If you're using Maya I like the Head Sculpting DVD by Alex Averez.

For the money I don't really like Meat Meir's DVD's... I think his lecture style is a bit jumbled and incomplete.

After that I'd get the Human Anatomy and Alpha Library discs.

I use C4D, so the creaure tut is wrong for me? IDont have XSi, so i am going to skip the last 3 parts. So should I buy it?

Any way you go all of the DVD's are pretty good.

I don't think there is any substitute for watching someone do something in Zbrush as apposed to reading a "how to".

All of them show you good stuff in Zbrush and the extra at the end of putting it together in something else is kind of additional anyway.

I use Maya and found the Creature DVD really useful.

So go crazy. Buy them all!!! :D
