3D modeling software for a medieval village?

Hi,

I want to create a model of a little village as a supplement for a Pathfinder game, which can be altered as buildings get added or destroyed. I have a lot of computer design/drawing and CAD experience but so far none with 3D.

Could you recommend an environment-creation package that doesn't cost a grillion dollars and ideally comes with a bunch of canned objects like grass, rivers, bushes and trees? I was hoping to try Blink 3D but that doesn't seem to be available anymore.

Hi Jason,

I'm very inexperienced at using 3D modeling software but the easiest that I've used and understood is SketchUp. It's free and very user-friendly so you should give it a try. Currently I'm working on a small project in game design and every model I've created was made with SketchUp and imported to Unity, this involves medieval village objects such as houses, stalls, carts, lamps, etc. I hope my answer is helpful and contact me if you're interested in sharing models and such.
