My first video tutorial in AGES (and only my second one ever from what I can recall). In this tutorial, I show how to build a circular brick wall using only one brick and three array modifiers. All done with an alpha version of Blender 2.52. You can download the latest build of Blender from [...]

A little tutorial to show you how to use arrays to create some sort of a lid shape thing.
