A Simple Bowl

Getting started with C4D XL, splines and NURBS.

This example introduces a few basic concepts in C4D:

1. setting up the windows to work in the "front" (XY) view
2. making a bowl cross section using splines and the points tool
3. lathing the cross section into a 3D bowl using NURBS
4. adding a wood shader to make it look like wood
5. changing the spline to modify the shape of the bowl
6. fiddling with the wood shader for different effects
