I would recommend Amapi. I don't agree that it's an entry level modeling application. I've tried my share of modelers, and Amapi beats them all. You can model just about anything in it, and, if you need precision, it's capable of CAD like exactness. The render options are basic, with that I'll agree, but other than that, it's a great modeler. Also, technical support is excellent and friendly. It beats trueSpace by miles -I've used trueSpace since it was Caligari for the Amiga.-Nando
