I want to start to create more 3D art work with my logo's and website designs, and was curious on what you think is the best program to start learning? One that is relatively simple to use or learn. I'm not going to create huge peices of 3D art work, just little bits and peaces in places of my designs.
Blender is free, and highly recommended. Me, I can't figure it out, and still prefer my old, dead, Metacreation's Infini-D 3D. It's buggy, but very capable.
Depends how involved you want to be with it. Blender is free and good. Lightwave is a great program which I used to use all the time. Nice render engine attached. Do you want to do animation as well or just 3d art work?
