Hi there folks,
If you are a 3D artist who’d like to try out a different ( and free, but very powerful ) modelling package, or if you are interested in looking at new potential technical solutions for game content creation, check out Blender 3D.

You can download it ( for any platform ) at…

I’d recommend anyone taking 15 minutes or so to download this version, and having a play with it. I believe it’s also being used on some courses in Ireland to teach 3D modelling.
Regards…
