I'm pleased to announce that I can finally offer you a tutorial for imitative beach pebbles.

With only a few colours and tools you'll be able to create a range of beach pebbles that'll fool the naked eye. The only deception is their light weight. Inspired by real beach pebbles, in this lesson you'll recreate veins, textures and ocean tumbled forms. Create stones of any size or shape, and then drill them with ease. Part 1 will show you how to create 4 types of basalt rocks, 2 with 2 techniques of achieving quartz veins (one slightly cracked, one banded). One black basalt rock with different shading, cracks/marks that enhances realism and one with a quartz inclusion. Lastly some red Jasper with inclusions and some tips and tricks to make your pebbles stand out.

Pasta machines for this project are entirely optional.

This tutorial is packed with 66 photographs, 22 pages, and 58 steps of instructions. It will be sent to you via email as a Pdf. file that you can download onto your computer.
