It's not supposed to...

It is a brighter color because it is the focal point of the background.

It is supposed to stand out.

Not bad but the lighting is really off in comparison to the background image.

To make a 3D object fit into a photograph everything needs to be taken into consideration,
Light, shadows, reflections, gamma, colour palette's
if one thing doesnt relate you can tell it isnt in the photograph.

But what I can see here is quite decent
the metaball has a good ammount of polygons and the overall composition cant really be faulted.

good stuff

Thanks ZBrush

I will consider all of this for next time.

I have only had Cinema 4D for about 6-7 days now.

So still learning

If you want to create something with a bit more of a dynamic look you really need to start looking into light rigs and light setups.

With then you can make the simplest of scene's look almost life like.

Another tip, because from my obsevation it looks like Global illumination isnt turned on in your scene, this also is a big hitter when making things seem realistic in C4D.

If you dont know what it is I suggest you look it up, its really fundemental within the program.
