    Where would I find the best flash/video tutorials for C4D (latest version)? I want to really learn to model with smooth surfaces with a minimum poly count. When I use hypernurbs, which I love, my file grows enormous in size. Another question for the masters, if I were creating a simple pipe like object and wanted to have a mounting bracket on the side, a bolting surface, how do I extrude from a simple pipe structure something that looks like it was part of the casting of that part? Make sense?

    I think the tutorials would explain this objective. Also, any texturing and other tutorial references regarding C4D would be most helpful.

    Thank you,

    Dave Montague

    I especially recommend “www.c4dcafe.com” that Adam mentioned. They have over 70 free (Flash-based) video tutorials for download. If you’re looking to learn Bodypaint at some point, C4DCafe is about to release a DVD with 15 hours of training for Bodypaint. Which at $50.00 USD ($10 shipping) is a steal in my book.
