I''m wondering what 3D modeler I could afford, that is also pretty good. I''m a beginner in 3D programming, and would like to have a relatively good one, maybe a learning edition of something?
Wow, this question is SO old. Here is a list of 3d modelers


  • Blender... It''s free. It''s powerful. But ya gotta search for it now that the main site is down. Have patience - it is out there.
  • Milkshape... Free for 30 days, then $20 registration. Low poly modeler that is pretty easy and quick to learn. Tons of import/export options.
  • Maya, Lightwave, 3D Studio Max... The kings of modelers. With a king''s ransom for a price tag.


Take your pick. I use Blender!

I am a beginner too. I have a free magazine disc with Caligari Truespace3 SE on it. What is the opionion on this software?
how about using the search feature to find the threads where all these products have been discussed a hundred times?
Lightwave 7 is now available for $395 to students.
A really good one is Rhinoceros 3D(http://www.rhino3d.com). It costs about $700+
