Blender adalah aplikasi tingkat profesional gratis, di mana matematika tidak terlalu diperlukan tetapi dapat digunakan untuk efek yang baik, dan persyaratan minimumnya tidak terlalu berlebihan (salinan Blender saya berjalan pada Dell 380 yang berusia 20 tahun):
Perangkat keras minimum (penggunaan dasar)
Perangkat keras yang disarankan
Perangkat keras yang optimal (tingkat produksi)
64-bit delapan core CPU
RAM 16 GB
Dua tampilan full HD dengan warna 24 bit
Mouse tiga tombol dan tablet grafis
Kartu grafis kompatibel ganda OpenGL 3.2 dengan RAM 4 GB
Jika Anda suka pengkodean, maka pustaka Python dan C juga tersedia.
Juga, ada situs StackExchange yang didedikasikan untuk Blender , yang berguna.
Sebagai perbandingan, dari Best 3D Design / 3D Modeling Software 2019 (15 dari 30 adalah Gratis) , daftar perbandingan ini bisa berguna
