    Hi all,

    I’m still a bit new to Cinema 4D, especially the modelling side, but I’m essentially trying to create a 3D version of my logo to animate it for a quick short.

    The logo looks like

    I started modeling using two capsules (shown below), but I’m not sure how to create a sort of smooth ‘join’ between them – I tried editing both the capsule meshes and adding a plane but both ended up pretty messy – anyone know a better way to do this?

    Thanks in advance!

    Depending on the look you want, one way would be to use a Volume Mesher (assuming you have a newer version of C4D).
