Render in Maxwell.Oh yeah true 3D I suppose I could do an animation but I'm not veyr familiar with Maxwell as I only use it for test and beauty shots of my models as alas, it won't work with Vue, which my main scene building app (I bought Maxwell ages ago in alpha test phase, as it was going to have a Vue plug in, but they never made it, grrrr!!!!)I like Rhino because I think in outlines, plans, etc and did technicla drawing at school, so for non-organic objects, I love it. It also has "layers" like Photoshop, which makes modelling sooooo much easier!this is my RHino modelling page:<a href="http://www.silverblades-suitcase.com/rhino/rhino3d.htm" target="_blank">3d Art: Rhino</a><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
