    Oh zbrush, your UI is either a riot or a means to be sent into an asylum, that rotary phone style Egyptian hieroglyph just to control a reference image is just so damn funny, which is great because most time the UI and UX make me want to throw my graphic tablet out the window, I wish the people behind blender gave pixellogic the help they so desperately need.

      The Z-Brush UI makes me want to punch the entire field of 3D modeling right in the face.

    The best part was how the model was instantly done all of the sudden. So you just play with the opacity for that step?

    I remember the first time I heard someone pronounce the letter "Z" as "zed." I went into the comments to see if anyone asked what the guy meant every time he said "zed" and found someone had already commented about it, explaining it. I thanked them for the explanation. Then some prick came along and gave me hell for not knowing what "zed" was.

      @@tarz1109 Why would you expect anyone to know everything about other countries? That's ridiculous; schools don't even teach other dialects. They don't even do this in England, Australia, or any other English speaking country. You can't convince me that English speakers outside the US know everything about English speakers in the US.
      I don't understand this egocentric way of thinking, expecting other people to possess the same knowledge, especially knowledge they have absolutely no way of knowing given their cultural background. It's something humans are supposed to grow out of at a very early age, and yet the brains of so many people seem to be stuck around age 7 or 8.

    Yes, but the only issue with this I'm getting that when I want to zoom in for smaller details the reference image does not zoom along with the model... Then you have to scale image and match it again causes some slight inaccuracy

    Danny I had a quick question, this method has become my go to when positioning my subtool for references images, but every now and then the keyframe will record the material i'm using at the moment. So when i switch materials, and I switch between keyframes, the frame will not only switch the subtool position, but also the material i'm using. Do you know why this could be, or how I can avoid this from happening again? Thanks!
