Hello Tom,

I know that Blender is a powerful tool, it's is also open source and build on Python technologies just like our old good Vizard plateform...

I'm using 3DS Max. I've learn it in school and a lot of artists are using it. You must think about it in case you need some help. It's also a environment that has been built with low poly manipulation in mind. It's why it is so used in video game workflow.

I hope that my answer will help you a bit...

Best regards,
Didier.
