Alice
http://www.alice.org/
--- Alice is a 3D Interactive Graphics Programming Environment for Windows 95/98/NT built by the Stage 3 Research Group at Carnegie Mellon University. The Alice project is a public service to the wider computing and artistic communities; our hope is to make it easy for novices to develop interesting 3D environments and to explore the new medium of interactive 3D graphics. The current version of Alice authoring tool is free to everyone and runs on computers that are commonly available for reasonable prices. Worlds created in Alice can be viewed and interacted with inside of a standard web browser once the Alice plug-in has been installed.
Alice is primarily a scripting and prototyping environment for 3D object behavior, not a 3D modeler; this makes Alice much more like LOGO than AutoCAD. By writing simple scripts, Alice users can control object appearance and behavior, and while the scripts are executing, objects respond to user input via mouse and keyboard.

DesignWorkshop Lite
http://www.artifice.com/free/dw_lite.html
--- The complete freeware DesignWorkshop Lite software package provides all you need to build your own 3D models for home design and visualization of architecture, landscapes, exhibits, or any kind of spatial design.

OpenFX
http://openfx.org/news/index.php
--- OpenFX is an Open-Source 3D modeling, animation and rendering suite created by Dr. Stuart Ferguson. He made the decision to release the source code to the public in the middle of 1999, and the product formerly named SoftF/X was renamed to OpenFX. It has now been released under the terms of the GNU General Public Licence. A powerful feature-set includes a full renderer and raytrace engine, NURBS support, kinematics-based animation, morphing, and an extensive plugin API. Plugin capabilities include image post processor effects such as lens flare, fog and depth of field. Animation effects such as explosions, waves and dissolves add enormously to the flexibility of the program. Check out the full list of the various effect types and let your imagination run wild!

Scripting interface: Tcl.
Misc: instancing, arbitrary number of modeling views, object clipboard, independent property clipboard, console, single level undo, 3DMF import/export.

MindsEye
http://mindseye.sourceforge.net/
--- There are many professional Animation/Modeling packages. The problem is price. It is about time that a cheap (Free actually under the GPL terms ) package was developed. This is the MindsEye project. The aim is a complete modeling/animation package for the GNU/Linux operating system. Another goal is to combine forces when it comes down to 3d programming. There currently exist a number of specialised packages, which can do specific 3d-tasks. The idea here is to create a total package which can be configured to do all the major 3d-tasks you need. It is supposed to run on any X Window system currently available.

K3D
http://k3d.sourceforge.net/new/
--- K-3D is a free (as in freedom) 3D modeling, animation, and rendering system for GNU/Linux and Win32. K-3D features a robust, object-oriented plugin architecture. K-3D does not include its own renderer but instead relies on the presence of a RenderMan compliant renderer as a subsystem.

It has many unique features not found on other editors and is very intuitive to use. 3D objects can be loaded, edited, viewed and saved again to disk while enjoying the luxury of realtime rendering. It also has a very powerful programming toolkit for those who like to get their feet wet. The toolkit allows 3D applications or plug-in tools for the editor to be written.

Fractint
http://spanky.triumf.ca/www/fractint/fractint.html
--- Fractint is a freeware fractal generator created for IBMPC's and compatible computers. It is the most versatile and extensive fractal program available for any price. The authors (of which I am not one), work very hard to keep it that way. It has many great features and it is constantly being upgraded and improved by the Stone Soup team.

POV Ray
www.povray.org/
--- The Persistence of Vision Ray-Tracer creates three-dimensional, photo-realistic images using a rendering technique called ray-tracing. It reads in a text file containing information describing the objects and lighting in a scene and generates an image of that scene from the view point of a camera also described in the text file. Ray-tracing is not a fast process by any means, but it produces very high quality images with realistic reflections, shading, perspective and other effects. The Persistence of Vision Raytracer is a high-quality, totally free tool for creating stunning three-dimensional graphics. It is available in official versions for Windows, Mac OS/Mac OS X and i86 Linux.

Texture Editor

http://home.hccnet.nl/s.j.francke/deknop/deknop.htm
--- DeKnop (dutch for "The Button") is a graphics editor that is designed to let you create buttons for your web site without requiring any graphic design experience. It provides an easy to use step-by-step interface that lets you select the text, font style, color, 3D bevel, size, gradients and many other aspects. You can preview any changes that you make as it takes place, so it is easy to experiment a little until you decide on a design you like. It offers support for automatic up/down effects for use in mouse over java scripts as well as gradients and more. Support for other languages (Dutch, French, Spanish) is available as a separate download.

You can also use Photoshop plugsins, all Psfilters with the ending *.ffl can be used in the USER FILTER plug in from GIMP. If you need to do anything from simple web logos/buttons and miscellaneous images to advanced high-tech computer art images, the GIMP is the program you'll want. If you find the GIMP as necessary as I do, also check out books in print on the GIMP and also the GIMP's Linux/Unix versions.*Minimum requirements* 16-bit HiColor & 64 M RAM (128 M recommended)

NOTE: If you have previously installed an earlier version of the GIMP, be sure to uninstall that first! Also read the rest of the author's uninstall instructions on his download page.

BlockCAD
http://user.tninet.se/~hbh828t/proglego.htm

It is impossible to draw pieces that are partly inside other parts, which excludes almost all of the Lego Technic line, but there's still a lot of fun to be had with it. Everything can be controlled with the mouse, but it's also possible to use the keyboard for most of the commands, making 'routine building' more effective, and there is a minimum of text involved, to make it easier for kids.
