extras:
i dont like maya
vue 5 espirit is good for landscapes -- must do some at some point
xsi is nice... never really got into it
modo had some quirks and nice bits..
zbrush is the ultimate clay toy...

i think you meant NOT difficult to use, its actually sort of simple and is great for n00bs as they can start out w/abstracts and then work their way towards real modelling...its a great prog imho

Fun program for abstract renders. I haven't used it much lately, but I've written two tutorials on it.

Its the only rendering program I have so ye I think its good even though I am a newb with it. I heard that 3D studio max is good and so is Bryce. Maya I tried before. Didnt like it much

I've found that Bryce is a lot of fun to use, but it isn't as good for abstracts. I'm not saying you can't make any with it, I just think it takes longer to get good results in Bryce.

Well like I said, it isn't bad, it just is harder than Cinema 4D when it comes to making good abstracts.

it wasnt the advanced bit i didnt like... i thought the right click menus and stuff where awesome.... but it was unable to go above about 4000 polies before chugging... which is waaay small compared to the 40000 on cinema... and the 2,000,000 on zbrush....

zbrush is 500 quid tho...... its still pretty much the cheapest
