Ok, I've found a Mac compatible download manager (thanks for the tip Tunesy) and I'm going to check out some of the demos. Manoloz- Since Silo doesn't do renders, how does it handle texturing? After reading everything here, thans for pointing out programs that don't handle things like animation, lighting, etc. That's very helpful. Sounds like I should check out Silo, Shade, Blender, and Hexagon. I already have a demo for ZBrush, so that's handled:)
