Simple wooden gazebo

In this tutorial we are going to model a simple wooden gazebo in Cinema 4D. The object is based on a CAD model I found on GrabCad (https://grabcad.com/library) a while ago.  You can download a project file that contains the reference images needed for modelling here:    https://www.dropbox.com/s/njcfq2a0coitnox/WG project.7z?dl=0   I hope you'll enjoy the tutorial. Thanks for watching!   Cheers, contrafibbularities    

150 Free Jigsaw Puzzles for C4D

Hi everyone,    Today, I'm releasing my free jigsaw puzzle library for Cinema 4D (R12 or newer).    The library contains 150 different jigsaw puzzles, sorted according to their shape. All puzzles are based on photo references and 2D graphics images I found on Shutterstock, Printerest, etc.   You can download the library here:    Jigsaw Puzzle Library File   There's a short video on the library you can watch on Vimeo:      I hope you'll enjoy the jigsaw puzzles!   Cheers, contrafibbularities   Some examples from the library:

Frame structure based on a CAD File

In this tutorial we will create a frame structure in Cinema 4D that is based on a real-world object. I used a CAD file of the object as a basis for modeling the frame. In the tutorial we will be working with the Illustrator file I made based on the original CAD file (.dxf).    You can download the files required for the tutorial here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5gz8wh68fkf7ezo/frame project files.7z?dl=0   Link to VK: https://vk.com/wall304534225_227   I hope you'll enjoy the tutorial.
