What You Will Learn?

  • In this course you  will learn the process of creating a 3D robot in Cinema 4D. We will start with an empty file and work our way up to modeling, texturing, and rendering a 3D character that looks awesome and is animation friendly. .
  • We will get the most out of the different tools that Cinema 4D offers, implementing different modeling techniques as well as a recycling method that will help you save a lot of time in this and any other 3D project you work in the future. .
  • Then, we will texture our character using both, stock materials that Cinema 4D comes with, and materials that we create ourselves..
  • Finally, we will use a few HDR images to lit the final scene, and make some amazing renders..
  • This course focuses on creating the 3D character you can see in the promo video, but you can use the techniques you learn here to create any other robot you want. .
  • I’m confident that at the end of this course you will have a solid understanding of the 3D modeling process and you will be able to start creating your own 3D characters. .
