Check out the next message down in that same thread, where there is a screenshot of the original model:

I think he probably used some kind of bend transform on the whole object and not individual vertex level adjustments if that is what you mean by "sculpting" though.

Well, yes - small diced up polygons should allow objects to be deformed with various things like "bend", "twist", etc...

What exactly do you mean by "sculpting" though, are you talking about some particular tool in Cinema4D?

Yes, it will probably make the file pretty large which is why it does not generate output like that as the default.

But unless you have like a 10 year old computer you should be able to handle a pretty large file ok.
