4.0 out of 5 stars A worthy 3D modeller., 9 Jun 2004

By	Mr. A. Privett "I only drink until the scream... (Pub) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

When it comes to 3D modelling and animation software, you pays your money and you takes your choice. Many are in the �500-�6000 area!

Carrara Studio 2 is nowhere near that expensive, yet it is a very useful tool. It is very well set out and seems to take very little system resources - which any 3D modeller or animator out there knows is a big issue with this sort of software.

The Spline editor is superb, allowing you to create any 3D shape you like, for example: Aircraft fuselage, wings (with flaps etc), space craft.

The workspace allows you to see your 3D environment easily and logically, so placing your primitives, complex or splined objects is a doddle.

There are plenty of textures and lights for rendering complete scenes or animations, without the need for another scene renderer, although I do use Bryce because I'm more familiar with it.
