  7. Missing video in Designing a Scary Female Monster in ZBrush course?

    In the course Designing a Scary Female Monster in ZBrush, is there missing a video? The second, after the introduction video, jumps far into the sculpt. Im not sure if its because its part of the professional library, though he refers to "in our last video" a couple of times.

    I'm happy to say I haven't experienced any of the issues I was having before, all this week, really. Aside from a few times it took a little while to connect.
