- Hi, I'm Chris Boeska. Welcome to Modeling a Character in Cinema 4D. In this course, we will focus on the powerful and flexible modeling tool set available in Cinema. We'll start with a simple front and side template, and create a basic character shape with nurbs patches. We will then convert those patches to polygons and stitch them together to create our final base mesh. I'm excited to show you how powerful the modeling tools are in Cinema 4D, and why this is my favorite modeling software.
