In this tutorial i go over the different between the alpha and transparency option in Cinema 4D materials
Do you have any questions? Be sure to ask in the comments and i’ll add the answers to this post for everyone to see.
In this Cinema 4D tutorial i talk about how to use black and white maps to control various material properties and mograph shaders and displace deformers.

In this tutorial i cover how to apply different shaders to different parts of the model.

Here i cover how to use Sub surface scattering to get a softern skin effect. Also cover using Inverse AO as an alternative and using fresnel in both hair and silk materials.

Struggling with glass? struggle no more! In under 10 minutes you’ll know all the secrets to realistic glass renders! nah im just kidding, the secrets are infinite, but this should get you started on the right path. You now have no excuse for ugly glass renders.

There was a question about metal, so i decided to make a quick metal video, here it is 🙂
Make sure you delete the specular channel in your reflectance. It’s ugly and shouldn’t be there :))
In short: Make a new material, set the color to black, enable reflectance, delete the default specular layer in reflectance, add a GGX layer, scroll down to fresnel settings. Select “conductor” pick a preset if you want, or just set the blurriness manually. Ta-da!
