So, this summer I made the transition from 3DsMax to Cinema 4D. After 15 years I find their pricing structure in combination with development not worth to invest anymore into this company. So Cinema4D it is and I have to say I love this program!
I find C4D much more stable and you can really focus more on the creating part instead of fixing problems and crashes.
For instance I have been grooming this guy all day without a single crash. If I tried to do this in Max (using ornatrix of hairfarm) I would have had a few crashes and numerous problems.
I do find that a few strands of hair grow where they are not supposed to and photoshopped this afterwards. This is something I have to figure out still.
But overall am very pleased with C4D so far. :-)
