Blender 3D

Blender is a 3D graphics and animation modeling environment. It is used to develop 3D graphics, create stunning animations, and also renders some pretty nice scenes.

It has a modeler for modeling meshes, nurbs, B splines, bezier curves editing and metaballs. modeling Animation is done with keyframes, motion curves, and most importantly inverse kinematics! It does not use a Ray-tracing as its rendering method, so rendering speeds are fast. Lighting support is good, with a variety of special lighting objects and lighting effects. 3D animation studio such as NeoGeo use it, and it is comparable to 3D Studio Max by Kinetix.
