Blender Alternatives

Blender is described as 'Free open-source 3D software for modeling, texturing, rigging, animation, rendering, compositing, video editing, and simulation' and is a leading 3D Modeler in the photos & graphics category. There are more than 100 alternatives to Blender for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Mac, Linux, Web-based and iPad apps. The best Blender alternative is Autodesk Maya. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try Wings 3D or Bforartists. Other great apps like Blender are Autodesk 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, Natron and ZBrush.
