Just in case anyone is still interested in this thread.... I too have been interested in these tutorials and did get around to checking them out for myself instead of taking another's word for it. These are very, very basic tutorials and they have some limited usefulness - introductory, basic - just as MarkBremmer says above. They left me with the same questions I had before looking at them and I've been working with Carrara intermittently only about 3 or 4 weeks. If you are absolutely new to Carrara, then they might be somewhat helpful to you - or help you decide whether you want to purchase. No mistake, what is there is well done, just very limited. wb
