Looks sweet, nice start, better than most starts in Cinema 4D.
Although it could look better, in my opinion boxes don't make good vases
so, I am going to help you improve it with this little tutorial I just made


(lol I just opened up C4D and got a merry christmas scene loaded something from the programmers, you get this? )

PLEASE BEAR IN MIND I AM USING CINEMA 4D 6 SO THE INTERFACE MAY VARY SLIGHTY TO THE LATER VERSIONS

@BigAdd: How do you make smoke or other particles in cinema 4d?
Or is there any tutorial? Because I can't find any.

Nor do I, unless they live near me, and I can just go around their house and pay in cash and get it there and then
I mean I found 8.5 buy it now £20, but had no images, and 9.5 on a bid of a couple of quid, and a day to go...but I didn't feel trust for it

geometry looks a wee bit funky from here, looks like you have been using triangles, triangles are the 3D modellers nightmare really, as no matter what you do, they disfigure your model, my advice would be to use quads or n gons, never tri's, if you need triangles for game input, then you can triangulate later.

Other than that, still its a pretty good first C4D gun

I just used triangles in the line aboth the trigger, anywhere else I used polygons.

And what are N-Gons?

Wow cool Model! An N-Gon Alows you to make a polygon face with an unlimited amount of sides. So 1 Polygon Face could have 20 sides.
