  c4d & Maya

  Posted by Accountclosedduetonorealnameused on April 26, 2006 at 3:23 pm

  Are there any good comparisons of c4d vs. Maya on the web.

  I am on the fence on which would be the better/easier 3D app to move forward with.
  I already have some Maya knowledge and books, but I keep hearing about c4d’s simplicity. Maya seems to be a black hole in terms of complexity.

  btw: I am doing motion grpahical work but would be doing some photo real products. hiQ rendering is impoertant.

  thanks!

  Look on google… there are so many of these comparisions you shouldn’t have any trouble finding one that works for you.

  In my opinion either is fine Maya is more expensive, and without an external render, its render quality is not very good. Cinema is cheaper and is easy to use and its got good quality renders with advanced render.

  Best of luck

  Wow, great link. And from the apps I’ve laid my hands on, I couldn’t agree more.
