'PROTON' VAUGHAN TUTORIALS. OLDIES BUT GOLDIES

PUSHING POINTS is the site of William 'Proton' Vaughan, previously LW 'evangelist'

Maybe Proton Vaughan is not sharing so many tuts as before, but Youtube is plenty of useful tutorials for beginners (and not so beginners) with Lightwave






Interesting thread started by Vaughan at Foundation 3D  with a lot of tutorials. Maybe old but useful.

WORKING WITH TEXTURES

Very useful tutorial about creating tileable textures using Photoshop. When you have different shadow levels it seems a nightmare to fix it, but just a few of Photoshop steps to get it. Take a look to this (and others) tutorial by Neil Blevins

 Probably you know textures.com (previously cgtextures) one of the most popular textures resources site. There you can find another tuts about textures  and, of course, tons of texture for free or commercial. You only have to sign up.
