I don't understand why but not enough people know about this. Cheetah3d is an excellent 3D modeling and rendering software created by Martin Wengenmayer. It can easily compete with most competition but the problem is, nobody has heard about it. The truly amazing thing is, it was created by one man and it doesn't cost anywhere close to as much as others. as a user of Cheetah3d I encourage people to try it out.
