There's older versions of Truespace out there, used to be for free..the interface is..uh..different, but I've seen amazing things done with it. The 'pros' use Lightwave, Rhino, Autocad (autocad?..yeah..;), and I think, Maya. I've never got beyond shoes and hats in Wings 3d, but it's fairly easy to learn, and free..if you're just starting out, you can develop some good skills that way.

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit
