The internet is an amazing entity. I've always had interests in the fine arts and not having a steady job has given me some time (in between looking for jobs) to check out some of the graphics packages that are available for free. You know what they say. TANSTAAFL. Well, the best things in life are free. Some cool software packages for 3D arts and such.
Blender: a cool 3D graphics/game creator. Open source. Free. Cool community.
gMax: another cool 3D graphics generator. There are tons of tutorials available.
Caligari: this was some software I used way back when I had an Amiga 4000. The environment is cool and pretty intuitive and it's free. I especially like the free-form modeling tools. v. 7.6 is the version I use right now.
Daz Studio: 3D Modeling software. Neat stuff. Some of it risky. Great for creating fantasy worlds.
GIMP: cool image manipulation program, sans the expensive Autodesk nametag. Neat painting tools. Fast. Also open source and free.
Thought you might like to know. The internet rocks!
