Cool! Another great modeler is www.wings3d.com

Bwoogie: Regardless how easy it is, easiest is a point of view, voted easiest by the largest magority is a fact.

I doubt its the easiest when it comes to 3d modeling. Wings3d has the low poly modeling pretty well in hand. However, this thing from cbmodelpro looks like it might give zbrush a run for its money when they finally go gold with it though. The cbmodelpro might be easiest from a 3d organic modeling standpoint. I dunno. Apparently this program is more like zbrush than wings3d. High poly count organic models with the direct "painting" of textures on them and all. Still, i couldnt run it on my system cause it gave me this bad sector or virus on my disk warning. I scanned my disk and no virus so maybe my disk is about to crash again. Dunno. I also got that kind of error with Zmud and photoshop recently. An i havent tried to hack any of these programs so its probably my disk is about to crash. I am looking at migrating everything to a new drive. Also since the cbmodelpro free version is the beta, best note that warning in its EULA not to use your models in production situations due to possible bugs.

The pictures are high-poly, but not very great, in my opinion. Everything is way too smooth.

I'll still check it out though.

I tried, them, you have to buy/register them, so I'm out. I'm such a cheapo, but when you're my age you kinda have to be.
