The last part reminded me so much of that classic drawing joke, where you draw a circle and then the rest of the freaking pigeon, jk:-) Thank you so much for a great tutorial! This channel overall is a godsend, along with eyedesyn and everything else you do for this community!
Anyone having trouble with 5:29 section i.e not seeing a box. Make sure to turn off isoline editing in the options tab next to display. Edit: We've all been there with uni deadlines. I know that dreaded feeling. Relax you will get through this.
Learned so much from EJ in the past month! Have been following all his tutorials and finally am starting to get a grasp of cinema 4D! First time using an iron tool!
Ok, I'm repeating this tutorial at some point this week. I never saw the bounding straight boxes outside the polygons and these have been the three most frustrating hours of my 2023 so far... clearly reflected in my pigeon hehe The c4d interface looks different as well, couldn't find any buttons. Very fun :) Thank you for putting this out though!
EJ as usual pushing the boundaries... of geometry XD. No joke, bravo!, if there's someone who's made me lose my old fears, aversion and resentment of 3D, is this guy right here.
Man thats awesome, exactly what I want to hear! 3d isn't hard...modeling basics aint either. Happy to help your on your path to beating back those insecurities on 3D!
@@eyedesyn Seriously, as someone who is trying to learn this and is a teacher herself, I've been so frustrated by tutorials. You are able to explain this stuff in a way that makes sense. I love that you approach teaching the program from a project perspective, not an explanation or showcase of features / functions.
justr coming back to C4d after years thanks for the tutorial, before we had to bring in sketches onto planes and scale them, good thing I watched this :)
He skips so many steps.... his other tutorials are great as @eyedesyn, but this one is kinda asking for you to download the files and register for those classes of School of Motion..
@@GoFayeGo Funny you mention that, fabulous teacher and fabulous tutorial, but your correct, there are a few things that he is doing, and not mentioning, that it takes someone with at least, some C4D experience to notice. For example, at 5:22, in the Perspective view, he spins the Cube without saying that he is spinning it, or why. In reality, if he had not spun the Cube one face clockwise, he would not have been able to Extrude the Polygon, below in the Right side perspective window, to right as he did, because the Polygon selected would have been facing us, in the Right side perspective window, not the right hand side as it ended up after the spin. No biggie, it's just that, those who are trying to learn, tend to watch every move you make. So as a teacher, it's absolutely key to dictate every step you make.
I love this, it's my third tutorial video that I watch about cinema 4d after watching some interface basics tutorials, and I am able to do a simple model already :D THANK YOU!
Also, for the ones wondering at 5:29 when extruding the selection why the nearest polygons also moves, check out preserve groups and make sure to apply it in the extrude tool option
I said it on IG but it should be noted; EJs new catch phrase should be "From cube to cute!" SO pumped for whenever you drop your next SoM course --- ADVANCED 3DEEEEEE PLS !!
I'm coming from blender and I want to know what the hell the people from C4D were thinking when they made the shortcuts? E for move, T for scale? Why not use M and S?
The entire process is done in Redshift which does not come cheap unless you use other methods to get it. I think it was poorly executed by not mentioning it in the tutorial.
I think a lot of things have changed in R25, not only the interface. W is not inner extrude. It is Inset, or kinda works different for me. There is a hole in the body if I press W
I’m following his instructions but at 11:23 why am I not getting a square to edit. I’m still just getting a curved shape. Also why is his legs spread apart evenly while mine split from edge
Funny to hear your familiar voice again; I took your entire Cineversity course "Getting started with Cinema4d" That taught me most of what I know about Cinema.
Hey EJ! Question for you.... You still have a wireframe of the non-subdivided surface visible and when you're selecting polygons (like to make the pigeon's leg) your selection is on that non-subdivided wireframe.... I don't have that wireframe and my selections highlight the subdivided (smoothed) polygons. What am I missing? (R21)
Hello! Thank you for this very cool tutorial)) really like it I have a problem with symmetry, did symmetry in another side, I mean bird tails look at each other. I tryed to fix it already 5 times( can you help me please?)

THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANK YOU!!!
thank you so much !!!
Thank you so much
can't find it
Big Thank
Really helpful, thank you for this.
Also, it would be nice if you did a part 2 to then go over how to texture and light the bird
Even though, I now understand the concepts, I still revisit this video from time to time. By now, it is my most watched Cinema 4D video.

Followed perfectly along in Blender. Thanks for the tutorial!
After watching this tutorial i tried to model a Headphone jack using all the tools you mentioned it came out really nice thank you
Share it! We'd love to see your work.
If I can get someone to teach me like this I can learn in a week and do more in a month. Great teacher.
justr coming back to C4d after years thanks for the tutorial, before we had to bring in sketches onto planes and scale them, good thing I watched this :)
Ah! This series is so good! I want these videos every day forever now. Haha
Right!? 360 days of 360 tips coming right at ya!
Video: * 20 minutes modeling *
Me: 2 Hours 23 minutes 36 seconds
Good tutorial anyway
me 46 hours 22min 16 sec

hhhh , Right
im watching this now. a video on subdivisions and polygon transformation broken down to it's basics would be greatly appreciated
The best 3D modelling in C4D tutorial I’ve found 💜💛💙
If anyone is struggling with 5:29 :
Make sure to select the "Cube", not the "Subdivision Surface" before you press c to make it editable :)
Thank you!
I love you
This is exactly the problem, I had thank you!
Three top comments literally saved my life.
OMG! Thank you!!!
Great beginner tutorial. I feel like I learned way more in this program in a short amount of time then I would if I learned it in class at school.
Ej always does proper and complete tutorials
6:14 "if i just click and drag here" if you're stuck, he doesnt mention it but hold ctrl in order to extrude only the bottom section.
THANK YOU!
you´re my hero bro
TYSM MAN!
我按照ctrl 只是出来了一小丢丢 为什么
终于弄出来了
That pigeon is so cute
Yeah, but he borrow our Mario Kart 64 cartridge and never returned it, so be wary.

where is preserve groups?
@@KevinP-i4k if you click on the actual icon for the extrude tool it should bring up the attribute window for extrude and it's just in there.
Cinema 4D is my favorite modeling software

Workin on it! :)
after seeing this tutorial ... i think the other C4D youtuber they must shut down thiere channels ... thank you so much you helped me out too much
Please sir make more video like this .. from banglades ..love your work
so much credits to you EJ, I have learned a lot from you, keep up the good job.
Your video is very helpful. I downloaded it successfully. Thank you!
FYI You can fix the problem at 9:35 by enabling "Weld Points" in the Symmetry settings.
hey! I'm a complete beginner at cinema 4d and I was having trouble at this step. Where can i find the symmetry settings option? thanks
@@zyn3ria714 Click Symmetry in the upper right, then in the porperties below look for weld points. I had to increase my tollerance to 5 cm.
Thanks for tip, but I have another issue, when try to zero points and hit enter it moves not only x axis but other axis as well, any idea why?
@@genesis2303 same! did you figure it out...I know this was 1 year ago haha
excellent. Your tutorial has got me well started. ..thank you
Tnx again,
Your videos are becoming more polished and better every time.
OK MY BOY EJ HAS BEEN LIFTING 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
The instructor has done a splendid job really loved it:)
Huge respect to you sir.
Awesome vid! Thanks so much, could
we get a lighting/texture/render part 2?
I'm coming from blender and I want to know what the hell the people from C4D were thinking when they made the shortcuts?
E for move, T for scale? Why not use M and S?
It's close to 1, 2 and 3
Needed this to learn other than solidworks to print on my 3D printer. Thanks!
Guys! You are amazing. Thank you!! 🌝
Just wanted to express how helpful your videos are!! you are extrely good at explaining tNice tutorialngs in-depth but still at a basic level for
Thank you very much for this easy tutorial. Good excercice for beginners like me. :)
Pumped to hear it! Thanks for watching! :)
I start my C4D journey today
The ‚poorly sketched‘ pigeon looks awesome aswell 😉
Just what i was looking for..........thanks a million
glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!
and please do a tutorial on the texture and materials etc!
Thank you!
You just taught something in 19 minutes what others fail to do after 10 hour lectures.
Organization is a key to success
You are the so many mutch our friendsly!!!
I learned a lot from this video. many thanks to you.
Thank you for posting ❤️
Thank you for watching! :)
Awesomeness. New to Cinema. Would have loved to see how you texturized it.
Anothe amazing tutorial from School of Motion and EJ! Keep it going! Thanks!
Cheers, Jorge!
Great and educative tutorial.thanks a lot.
Very nice! Yet another great tutorial EJ.
thanks so much for your kind words and for watching!
Hi EJ nice tutorial! I would like to see how you did the lighting setup in redshift, do you have a tutorial on this?
You can download the project file and check out my setup! :)
@@eyedesyn very nice!
This was a really good and educational tutorial thank you
Awesome tutorial! Learned a lot from it!!
thats so awesome to hear! Thanks for watching!
That's so helpful thank you so much !! but how can we do the textures like you did in the last part ?
Thats external render engine: redshift. Its a paid plugin
Awesome..was waiting for long time ❤️👍
Cheers! Enjoy!
best channel ever
This is a really good tutorial. Recommend! :)
Cool! Tnx!
Thanks!
yaay thanks!
woop woop!
Do you have a tutorial with materials and lights to finish my pigeon? :)
Could you please teach us how to fill in the colors of it as well? =)

If the symmetry step (9:00) leaves you with a gap in the model, make sure the models X coordinates are at zero.
I love you for this. I'd like to add: reset your coordinates by going to Tools > Reset Transform
Thanks!!!!!
I had to listen on .5 playback speed, but this was great!
I’m following his instructions but at 11:23 why am I not getting a square to edit. I’m still just getting a curved shape. Also why is his legs spread apart evenly while mine split from edge
This is such a informative tutorial!
great tutorial, i got just a preference on a white background for us to see better the moves..
Thx for your diligence. Great)
Omg!! That’s helpful!! Thank you so much!!!
thank you...

C4d best tool for motion graphics.
Thanks a lot!
i am gonna subscribe your Channel, You Deserve subscribers in millions.
I'm a blender user but I will try Cinema 4D
WOW!!! COOL VIDEO!!! THX!!

nvm. Aaron Bartlett over in the SOM Alumni group figured it out: turning off Isoline Editing in the viewport options did the trick!
@@grizzlycat Yup! just a different view mode! all the techniques work the same though
Shortcut key is ALT+A to toggle Isoline Editing
Had me stumped for a while that one. Thanks!
@@grizzlycat thank you!!! I suffered a lot trying to find it! u helped a lot

thx a lot ... very helpful!
Great tutorial
Thanks for this...
you're very welcome!
Super explanation
Super helpful tutorial!
Our Pigeon's been eating a lot of trash 9:28 (i died hahahaha)
希望你能看到，后面的步骤有吗？？我真的是个零基础 ~希望你能讲一期完整的3d视频~~~谢谢啦 ~~~等着你~~
Great, please more
If I do a model with color and textures in Cinema 4d, would it transfer fully to Toonboom animation software?
Awsome!👏
Thanks Dude
Hello! Thank you for this very cool tutorial)) really like it
I have a problem with symmetry, did symmetry in another side, I mean bird tails look at each other. I tryed to fix it already 5 times( can you help me please?)
