Agree Laurie, my fun is taking on a little challenge and being able to release it for others.

Frustration, oh that's  big part some time, but.... It can also teach you something, if only not to press that button you don't quite know about!!! Lol.

Software has beenh mentioned, so to me, use what your happy using. Use the highest paid for software, or free ones. It really doesn't matter as long as you get the enjoyment out of the experience.

I know people knock Blender etc. as it's free, but, look at what has been made with it before consigning it to the bin. Have a go with the free stuff, you will gain in experience and will find things that will and wont work for you. The same thing applies to paid for software.

I have tried quite a few and the modeller that works for me is Silo 2 Professional. Now, I'm not saying everything else is bad and everyone should use Silo. The reason I work with it is that it just works for me, no big loads of options on the screen etc.

The other reason I got into Silo is down to John (Fugazi1968) and his Digital Tailor tutorials.

Have to agree about those Not for commercial use ones, you never know what the future brings.

Also,  little thing for PA's........

Please, please put on the main promo page if you cannot use a MR item for free items. So many time I have seen something that would work and then, those dreaded words are in the read me file. Sometimes very tucked away.

So, to end up. Get a modeller, have a go and enjoy the fun and frustration of making things.

All the best.
