It's all about making materials.. I usually add stocks that have a hella lot of color in them, you can take a look at the material I used in this one. Think I used a stock of a sunset and then like a resurge stock or something else, can't really remember. I usually play around with it a lot until I get something I like.. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FFWW0L5M Feel free to use it, just don't send it to anyone. ;p For the C4D I usually just start out with text or a tube and use probably a billion deformers and just duplicate the main one over and over. Make sure when you use deformers you have it set to unlimited and not just limited so it does more to the C4D. I always finish off with hypernurbs and usually lower the settings on them a bit.. Don't know if your real familiar with C4D or not, but if you are this should help you out some? Not really any good tutorials out there to be honest, I mean they are good for letting you know where ---- is and that is about it.
