A great training DVD. Zack Petroc is a brilliant digital sculptor and an articulate and well organized teacher.
This is a good DVD. Don't expect much in the way of polygon modeling instruction, but as an introduction to mudbox/maya workflow and techniques it's a quality product and should help anyone already familiar with polygon modeling get a good start with high-res displacement sculpting.
