"Animation Magazine has announced this year's winners of their "Golden Pixie Awards" and messiah:studio tops the list as winner of the "Gutsy Pixie." Says Animation Magazine's Peter Plantec, "...I almost missed it because my jaded brain couldn't stand to look at one more 3D package, this one makes one hell of an entry into the market. It's a product that is uniquely useful, well thought out, and does some 3D things better than any other." And he continues, "Although it may seem hard to believe, many aspects of character animation are easier in messiah than in either Maya, Max, or SI unplugged." http://www.animationmagazine.net/ No bugs? Hrrm. Pretty close and definitely getting there. http://www.projectmessiah.com/ Or, for those looking for a bit more in their package http://www.maxon.net/ virtually bug free. It animates, it renders, it models. What more could you want? What do you mean you wanted dirt cheap?
