Whew, Thanks for all the responses, guys! I was up til 5:00am playing with this & put it up just before i turned in. By the way, It was all done with just one tool, at one setting - a mesh "pull"-type tool at medium falloff. I can't wait to get familiar with the "push" settings & expiramenting with different settings! I'm very grateful to Poser Arcana & especially Glen Southern for an incredibly dead-on tutorial. Glen MUST be a Zbrush genius, because I'd never have come across the method he used in a month of study! For a program that was originally designed as a deep textureing paint program (as I understand it), ZBrush has marvelous modeling capabilities - but you can tell they weren't intended as a primary use for the program. Thanks for the kind words, all! (I'll have to check that terrain script, too, but probably won't get to it until I've studied more of the basics - Thanks jaimelab!) lelionx - Nixon? - By Dick, I think you're right! LOL
