i'm a Cinema 4D user and i find it great..it's user friendly and quite easy to pick up. However, there are not much NURBS. C4D is cheaper than Maya and 3DS MAX though..as for Blender..for a cheap software, it is great..the only problems is that the UI is hard to learn.but once u do, it will do just fine :)for now, i'm planning to use 3DS Max

@studmuffinmg Yeah I hate Maya's bugs, tools that split along a polygon and then forget what you've split!

Max?Maya?Give me Inventor! It amazes me on a daily basis.

I always had the impression that Maya and 3DS Max were owned by different companies, since the fanboys of either one seem to enjoy bashing the other on a daily basis. Now I realise that those fanboys who proclaim that "3ds development sucks" or "the people who wrote Maya were idiots" were basically biting the ass of their home team. As for me, I'll stick to being a Blender Boy, and port whatever knowledge I got from it to one of AutoDick's programs when I need to fill a job resume. ;)

Maya, Max, and Softimage are 3d application that can do basically the same thing but differently, this is true for other 3d application also. Each 3d package has its pros and cons, an artist can then choose the one that suits them the most, I use softimage and can't imagine using Maya or anything elseBut i most say that I don't know what Autodesk hopes to archive by having three 3d application!

Well, i use Modo 401, as much possible anyway. It's great!!

Hilarious!!! So true, so true. Alias sucks hard core at development and innovation. They should take a page from Adobe when it comes to having an up-to-date UI and each program that they have having a specific purpose. All Autodesk does is acquire programs, fuck them over, and make major upgrades to them. That being said, I use Maya... I hate the system!!! Haha. But seriously UPGRADE!!!
