"What 3D Program Should I buy?" Not one person here can really tell you what's best for you, as everyone has their own taste in workflow. Try the demo or learning edition of the program you're interested in, this is the only way to find out which programs you like.
Hmm, I am pretty/really bad at drawing or sketching, so so far I normally only model either building like things that are simple to draw, or more or less real world sorts of rigid body things.... but hopefully that'll change.

I like making vehicles. Dunno why, just do.
Seems like aircraft are the easiest. Something about the natural symetry in most cases and the streamlined airfoil shapes. I guess its how subdivision works in Anim8or that makes it natural. Also I like cars, but making a contemporary one still baffles me. I've tried some stuff, and I guess it's still not exactly natural to my way of working in Anim8or. Mainly it's getting the body panels to align, but the wheel wells are what really vexes me. I can do a decent boolean rendition ala Bryce, but sometimes keeping the clarity in what goes where can be fustrating. But I guess that's all part of the puzzle. Never did a whole lot with creatures. I can make 'em. But rigging them so they're posable and making them look convincing... Heh... Well I still need to learn.

Would you say that you are better at modeling real life images, (trees, objects, weapons)... or people and creatures, (men, dragons, animals). Personally, I'm better at the objects and I really enjoy modeling trees. I want to get better at humans though, I think an anatomy forum would be awesome.
