could you give us an idea how you are going about your modeling? i'm not very familar with C4D so i cant really suggest a method that is similar.

everyone has their own way of modeling but i would suggest starting with a polygonal cube (very little detail) and begin shaping it into the trunk. you could then begin adding detail and limbs by extruding faces and splitting polygons.

in the end i think you could use cylindrical uv mapping but i would concentrate cleaning up the geometry first. that all from me.

i'm out.
