3D Modeling program?

[LoRd_SnOw]

Does anyone here happen to know of any good, but free modeling programs? I've been using something rather ancient for a while and well i was really looking to just move on to more up to date stuff.

 

Thanks.

I have some amazing phobia with blender, i've tried it a few times, but couldn't get a foot hold of it yet. Thanks, I will give it another shot though.

I haven't seen a free 3D modelling software that has an interface that meets industry standard, I use 3Ds Max 2010 but that obviously not free!

Swift 3D is a personal favourite. You said that 3D studio Max was too complicated. I therefore advise you to use swift 3d. It is very easy to use with an amazing interface. It is verypowerful and you can create advanced mdoels and animations. A greeat thign is that you can render 3d animations and export them as flash files.
