1) Paperback Book Introducing ZBrush by Sybex. This is a great book for beginners in 3d, specifically modeling. I´ve had my share of video tutorials but having a physical book that i can take with me anywhere is priceless, anywhere i go i can keep on reading any particular subject i want to learn further.

The explanations are clear for beginners and intermediate users of Zbrush, might be simple stuff for advanced users but there´s never too much information in any book, it comes with a CD which includes a 30 day trial of Zrbush 3.0 and the exercise files for the whole book.

Great product, recommended.¤

2) Paperback Book Introducing ZBrush by Sybex. As a fifteen year veteran of the 3D art world, I can say that ZBrush is the revolution I´ve been waiting for, and the Introducing ZBrush book is fantastic!! I was able to complete projects within minutes of opening this book that would have taken hours, if not days using other apps. My wife was so impressed with what I created in so short a time, she asked to try...so, with absolutely no experience, she started the book, and in a few hours had an excellent understanding of the app, and was creating some very nice mesh. I read in another review that the CD didn´t work, but I had no trouble with it at all, running XP Pro. I would recommend this guide to all.¤

3) Paperback Book Introducing ZBrush by Sybex. Great book. I couldn´t wait for it. I found it at a bookstore and after looking through it I bought it. It did not bother one bit paying the cover price. Great book.¤

4) Paperback Book Introducing ZBrush by Sybex. This book is a great reference book even for someone that is familiar to Z brush. There are so many features in the program that his book goes into detail describing. The step by step tutorials will help you get started with Z brush. It also touches on the 2D capabilities of the program, something that is often over looked.¤

5) Paperback Book Introducing ZBrush by Sybex. First of all this book is so boringly non-visual. Black and White except for the small insert in the middle. The projects need a better step-by-step approach. I found myself having to reread the wordy steps most of the time to find the "key" word I was missing to complete a step. It didn´t help that the first tutorial was so incredible boaring and goes on for 139 pages. By the time it was over I lost most interest in continuing. Shorter projects to the point please. YAWN...wake me when this is over. It was nice to have something written down for a change but that was its only benefit for me. I am looking for a book to tell me where things area and what they do period. A Zbrush manual needs to happen.¤
