The Pictures from number 18 and 19 seem to be reversed and missing.
you can if you know how!? :]
delicious
Nice Collection….thanks for sharing!!
Thumbs at 8. and 9 is same.
Amazing tuts
This is a great collection of C4D tugs, I will try some of them ;0)
Now this is something new and something very useful. Looking forward to more stuff like this. 3D Max tutorials for photoshop maybe? Just an idea
Cheers
great idea, i was looking for exactaly this
Thank you so much! now this kicks tons and tons of major booty!
Thanks again
These are horrible examples…
thank you. when are you going to launch c4dtuts.com? would be great.
@Cookie…. whether they are horrible examples or not, give the author(s) some credit… they don’t HAVE to give tutorials ya know!
I for one… thank each and every author for their part in producing such an awesome list of tutorials in a program i’ve been looking into getting into! lol
Wow….that article gives me the final push starting 3D art
btw nice tutorials
Great timing on this…I’ve been looking for good examples of getting vector paths into C4D for a logo design im doing
A simple walk-through for total beginner would be a great use. Anyway those tuts gave me a kick to start messing around with C4D. Thanks
Great post, i’ve been looking for this. THANKS!
Nice thanks!
Some nice cinema 4D tuts here too :
http://www.noshade.net/tutoriaux-cinema_4d.php
there is something wrong in # 18 and 19.
What a amazing work, Thanks.
very usefull!!!!!! and nice!!!
poor
some of those could be useful for me
I think that wrong picture at 18. Screw Driver Tutorial
Decent list. I’ve seen a lot of focus on 3D rendering lately. Not sure why. Most wed development freelancers don’t have the cash for this software.
Thanks!! Cinema 4D is a beautiful program with a great rendering engine. These will help me out!
Great list, i like the no 1,2,4,23,38
Really nice but I think 3DS Max with V-Ray is better
Oh, cool! Great job Danny Outlaw! Thanks!
I expected a C4DTuts
Re: Cookie
That was a horrendous comment. What is someone supposed to do with feedback like that?
@ Saro I know http://www.cgtuts.com is coming soon (I Dont know the Date)
There will be 3D Tutorials…
C4D is such a powerful and easier to use 3D software than 3D Studio Max and I’m glad to see it’s getting some love on PSDTuts.
I guess we need a 3D Software TUTS site.
cool, great news
###nice!###
I would like to see about 3ds max also!!!!
Would be great to see some tuts using free 3d software like Blender. I used to use 3dsMax a lot in school, but I don’t have a copy of it anymore to use.
Cool Post. Been wanting to do a few more Cinema 4D projects recently and this is really helpful
Nice post, definitely. I wouldn’t mind seeing a “3DTUTS” site with tutorials on Vue, Cinema 4D, 3DSMax and Maya.
Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU!
if you could get some CD4 tuts for beginners that would be ace, i have the program but it confuses the hell out of me.
C4D learning curve’s musch easier…. interface is also a lot more intuitive… ive modelled with 3ds max, autocad, rhino3d, maya… in C4D is probably the best overall!
great tuts for beginners
I think the best gui has Maya but its too expensive… But you can Download PLE (Personal Learning Edition)…
I know its looking really hard for new users but complete some tutorials and after some time you would C4D through in the bin
But Tutorials for 3DS Max are better because its the most used CG Tool
for photoshoppers?
this is C4D!
i expected for Adobe Photoshop Cs4
not c4d
BEYOND E.P.I.C !!!!!!!!!
thank you ! PSD tuts is so full of win !
you are really good people.
Most effects look poor, it is past of 3D, not present and not future for sure.
It would be great to see Envato create some fine quality ones. I’m sure they can do great C4D tuts.

good job
Perfect, and for people who dont know, V-RAY exists for CINEMA 4D to!
I hope PSDTUTS – post more C4D tuts
