*hands waynefox some free punctuation*

I do most of my work in Lightwave, though Poser does have it's uses. Currently rigging the Poser models I regularly use in Lightwave so I don't have to use Poser at all.

Have tried Bryce, but the interface pisses me off. Also need to work with ZBrush some more, could be very useful in getting the level of detail I'm after.

I use Wings3D. I'm not too good at modeling, but I've mastered the program itself. Now, if only that animation plugin wasn't just an idea, but an actual existant plugin...

I started out like you, learning Blender as my first software. I got modelling and rendering down in about a week.

After that I had to switch to Max because that's the software they used at school and later at the place I work in. I hated it at first, but I've now learnt so much more on Max that I get frustrated if I ever try Blender again. ;b

3Ds Max, sometimes Maya for some projects.

Zbrush would be my second choice.

For the most part I use Lightwave 9.5 and Vue 6.5 for modeling, animating, and creating landscapes. I kinda don't like Maya, not because it's a bad app or anything but because of their tendency to want to buyout every other app out there and charge you an arm and a leg for their license. Lightwave is not as powerful as Maya but it gets the job done, has a wonderful selection of plugins both free and commercial, and the license is a heck of a lot more affordable. I still have yet to meet anyone with a legit Maya license, not even my professors had one :p

3Ds Max for me as well. I had a friend help me getting started with it. I'm fairly decent at poly modelling, but I haven't really figured out rigging and making scenes and such.
