Welcome to the December issue of 3DCreative – two score, life begins at … that’s right: 40! For those who aren’t up on your bingo lingo, then I’m really just trying to say that we’ve hit the big 4-0 with 3DCreative magazine. Woop!

I quite like the naughty one myself, so let’s bless this December issue of 3DCreative magazine the naughty 40 issue – just because we can! *grins*...more

But before I get carried away with that, let me first tell you a little about the new ZBrush tutorial series – “ZBrush Character Creation”...more
