Enos has made some awesome jpg with Blender for a battle scene that e is working on and he said he was using Blender. I went to the Blender website and downloaded a copy of it for myself...I have been looking at it and am interested in possibly spending some cash and getting it....But before i decide to spend money on something i want to make sure that it is really worth the money compaired to compitetion....My question for all of you is does anyone else know of any 3d studios that i will be able to get my hands on to so something creative in.
Thanks in advance

Blender is opensource under GPL man, its free

do you know where i can get books for it or something that i can teach myself with it

Well most libraries or bookstores will have either or both the "Official Blender 2.0 Guide" which is sortof outdated, but the basics will be explained. Theres also a book called simply "The Blender Book" which i own a copy of that helps alot.

Or you can try http://www.elysiun.conm which is a great community for blender users. Not to mention irc.freenode.net #blenderchat for IRC. Im usually there myself.

Ok with all the Blenders in here someone has to have a margarita...where is it?
