Yes Simon that's the tutorial. I would save to HDD and watch, pause, repeat. He explains clearly how and why Blender uses right mouse button, that G is grab, R is rotate, splitting the workspace. But remember it can be addictive!

thanks for pointing me in the direction of sculptris!
i downloaded it and watch som tutorials, played around a litle...
(the whole evening actually)
it's a really nice modeling app. thanks again

@numbthumb, @Rich,
Many thanks Guys
Probably no sculpture tomorrow and huge quantity of documents to see and learn
@ rattusNOR
Hi Rattus, Welcome from Oslo. As you see I have just a very little advance on you

I just remember that I made the French help of Sculptris 1.02

@Simon: I have found that utility on my HDD, here it is if you´re interested. I think it allows you to use reference images with Sculptris ( and Blender, hehe ).
I hope it is OK, after all it is freeware. Here you go:DAG_ForegroundUtility.rar -
Would you recommend using a graphics tablet with Sculptris, Pilou?
-
Of course yes, (like for Zbrush, 3D COAT, Sculptris...) a pen graphic is more easy than a mouse!
You keep the artistic hand's movements and moreyou have pressure levels!!!
That is unvaluable!
Mouse is for helping
A simple Wacom Bamboo is sufficient
And you can use it for Moment of Inspiration
Make nurbs with a pen graphic is a rare pleasure! -
Thanks!
-
thanks Pilou for " the French help of Sculptris 1.02"

I have Blender 2.49b installed, I'd say I have it since that version was released but I have used it just a couple of times to make a couple of tutorials, but then I never found time to continue.
Michalis gave me a useful link to texture models in Blender to import them to SU, but I'm a mess with the mapping and retopoing and all that...
http://www.sketchupartists.org/tutorials/sketchup-and-blender/blender-to-sketchup-a-workaround-for-texturing-organic-shapes/Each time I see something done in blender or some one saying he uses it, I promise myself I'll try again. So, this time I'm making a promise again (why would be different this time????)
I used sculptris and made some doodles, but I can't use it here at work (something to do with my graphic card and shaders... I can open the old version and can't use the decimator) and never find time when I'm home LOL
Ahhhh now I come to think it. My avatar was made in sculptris

I have opened Blender yesterday.
I have tried to do something with this box we open on.
for me, impossible to do nothing. I have to read the guide. I shall report...Dear Karina,
I must say that I always appreciate a lot your talent and imagination of your posts on Speed Modelling Challenges

Hey Simon!
Thanks and Thanks
You've just made my day happier
My relation with Blender is similar to yours, don't worry. It took me a day to subdivide the default square.
OK, maybe less, but I it is not an intuitive software to learn (like SU) LOL -
Simon
Blender has always been a temptation, but if anyone can conquer it, it's you. If you decide to forge ahead with it, please give us a play by play on your progress. I will watch with anticipation.
Cheers -
Use Blender after Su is a very painful thing!
It's not an intuitive prog!Bon courage!
-
I agree with you, Blender after SU is like rocket science after sex.

thank you Pete, you don't know how much you saved my mood this evening

I always fell asleep during science!

@Simon: I started with Blender2.45 at the same time I started with Sketchup6.0. I used the Blender Wiki User Manual. It introduced step by step modeling. I guess it is still available I found it necessary to download and print it because flipping between windows was so tedious. Some of the key strokes have faded from my memory in the last four years.
Most of the fine plugins available for Sketchup are already native to Blender. I had to put Blender on the shelf in order to concentrate on development of my Sketchup skills. Every thing in Sketchup is more accessible. There are quite a few capabilities in Sketchup I have not explored, so Blender may have to wait a little longer. -
Sorry, still roflmao...
Simon, just wanted to say thank you for starting this thread. Really encouraged me to play with Sculptris once again (hope I find some time soon).
Will be following this with interest, keep it going!

Another observation:
Many of you have skills, knowledge and experience beyond merely modeling. Most of those skills require methods just as Byzantine as the techniques available in Blender, so it must be that learning yet another complicated toolset is what hinders you. It certainly is what hinders me.
