Download Blender 3 for Windows 7, 8, 10, 11, MacOS, Linux - Free and open source 3D creation suite to professional applications such as Maya and 3D Studio Max
Blender 3D is a free alternative to professional applications such as Maya and 3D Studio Max. This software is also portable which means that you can carry it on your memory stick and do your job on any PC using Windows. Blender is the open source software for 3D modelling, animation, rendering, post-production, interactive creation and playback pack and more...
Advanced users employ Blender’s API for Python scripting to customize the application and write specialized tools. Blender is cross-platform and runs equally well on Linux, Windows, and Macintosh computers. Its interface uses OpenGL to provide a consistent experience. To confirm specific compatibility, the list of supported platforms indicates those regularly tested by the development team.
Features of Blender:
Animation:
- Armature (skeleton) deformation with forward/inverse kinematics, auto skinning and interactive 3D paint for vertex weighting
