Free Blender Alternatives
Blender is described as 'is the free and open-source 3D creation suite.

good application, but the lack of actual modeling tools and freemium aspect make it not that great, maybe a good app for 3d printing, but nowhere near the level of blender - Armory is an open-source 3D game engine with full Blender integration, turning it into a complete game development tool. The result is a unified workflow from start to finish, making you work faster. No more jumping between different applications. View 23 alternatives to Armory
