Polygonal Modeling

Visions Take Shape in Cinema 4D

Polygons are the building blocks of 3D, stitched together to create the objects of your imagination. With Cinema 4D’s complete polygonal modeling toolset, it’s easy to craft everything from cars to creatures.

Knife Tool

Cutting Edge Interactivity

Slice models with quick precision using a trio of tools that offer outstanding interactivity. Make more polygons and add more detail - edit cuts before committing, cut evenly-spaced slices, and add symmetrical loops with ease.

Plane Cut
Loop Cut
Line Cut

Preserve UV

The Preserve UV option allows you to edit meshes without distorting your UVs – even late-stage adjustments no longer mean hours of rework. This powerful feature keeps textures perfectly aligned by automatically reprojecting UV coordinates during point, edge, or polygon edits. Enjoy a more flexible workflow and greater creative freedom!

Extrude

Extrude selected points, edges or polygons.

Stitch & Sew

Join object edges that have the same number of points.

Bevel

Soften hard edges without Subdivison Surface Objects.

Mesh Check
