I know you guys already have a thread up about "Which 3d program to use", but i am looking for some helping with what is a good program for macs? The only thing I've really seen available to us is TurboCAD Mac Pro. Does anyone else have anything? Thanks.

There's MAYA, it can produce stunning work and Strata 3D.

I know Blender is FREE so that may be a great place to start. I've played around with it a little on the PC - I didn't even know there was a mac version till now! I'm so excited to download this!

I would highly recommend Cinema 4D one of the easiest to learn if you have a litltle 3d background and the user interface is fairly easy to learn too. Have't used it in awhile but other than 3d StudioMax and Maya, Cinema 4D is right there with them IMO.

Just a thought. I'm not totally up on the latest Leopard upgrade. We did just load WindozeXP into a bootcamp-loaded iMac though. I'll have to download a few things and try it out. Someday. :D

My college uses Lightwave on their macs. It's an awesome program, but it takes awhile to get used to.
