Cinema 4d

[NEWBEE]

Hello...

I don´t know what you think about 3D world but i think that the best software is Cinema 4D. Easy to learn, good in modelling and very very good in rendering.

Take a look:

I've seen cinema 4d is very interesting and got allot of high end features but its a very heavy program with stuff make more for movie cg.

I prefer 3dmax and old version instead of the newest cause also the new ones just got too much things for movie cg. While i just want an easy render. 3d max is easy to learn and there are tons and tons of tutorials to learn things from. Very stable and runs very well and what i like the most is the auto backup system when the program crashes.

Alias studio tools is a very interesting program for industrial designers. It got a sketch and 3d mode. You can actually turn your sketches into 3d models. This helps allot then you make the model totally out of you head. Sketch different sides and then make it into 3d and use the sketches as texture.

Autodesk Inventor i just like the way that this program make the shapes and stuff. Very easy to model when you know it. No renders but can make good blueprint of the models.

I dont prefer Rhino I hate working with the nurbs system. And really cant work with patching the edges each time. But the flamingo renderer is very great and the program is very light.
