Use Cinema 4D to create illustration renders.
Cinema 4D is a widely used 3D modeling, graphics and animation application offered by Maxon Computer. It has many powerful features, and is one of the main alternatives to Maya or 3DMax. While people tend to think of it as a tool for creating animation or video games, it is also used to create images for print graphics. Cinema 4D can be set to create a variety of render types, from photo-realistic to abstract. One type that is often used is illustration. Rendering a model as an illustration in Cinema 4D is fairly simple.
Instructions
1. Open Cinema 4D. Select "File" form the menu and choose "Open." In the dialog that appears, locate a file with a model that you would like to render as an illustration.
2. Go to the "Material Editor" on the lower left. One by one, select and delete all of the materials you see there.
3. Hold down the "CTRL" key and click "B" on your keyboard. This will open the "Render Settings."
