In this tutorial, I'll show you how to create cool, stylized, cartoon style 2D fire effects using just Cinema 4D. We'll start out by going over how to set up your scene to get the flat 2D shading using the Cel Shader (http://www.eyedesyn.com/creating-an-illustrative-2d-style-with-3d-objects-in-cinema-4d/) as well as how to set up your camera & lighting. Then I'll show you how to create the flame using a bunch of techniques that I also go over in my Cel Shader Paint Strokes tutorial (http://www.eyedesyn.com/cel-animation-paint-strokes/) and also show you how to tweak it to get different types of flames. Finally, I'll cover how I used the Normal Direction shader to be able to see through our 3D flame geometry to see the match stick. If you have any questions, be sure to hit me in the comments below! If you make anything with this technique, be sure to share it!
