I thought of using metaballs to make rocks. Their poly counts are rather high though. I thought I had seen a rock modeling tutorial for Carrara posted or linked here in the past. Just curious how others use Carrara for making random shaped rocks.

Hi Shonner, some months ago i've written an article on 3dxtract as featured artist. I've explained the simple technique that i've used to create the stones in the C4 cover art. It's really nice and fast. Hope this helps:-) -TOXE
