1. Blender, Maya, and 3dsMax are all three very popular programs, with great features. I would have to say each one has certain strengths and weaknesses over the other. 3dsMax: considered the "standard" in the field of 3d modeling, fast rendering times. downside- hefty price tag (usually over $3,500) and its UV mapping features leave a bit to be desired. Maya: also very good, with similar features. downside- also a hefty price tag. Blender: its FREE! It has an easy to use interface, and customizable for individual preferences. downside- slower rendering time If you're interested in 3d modeling, I would suggest starting with Blender. Afterall, its free and the skills learned with the program will translate well if you decide to try the more expensive programs at a later time.
