Other 3d Packages that supplement Rhino and are good for rendering and background scenery to enhance your models: LightWave 3D (My favourite); Maya 3D; Bryce 3D landscape modeling, animation, and rendering software (reasonably priced with a lot of packages individually designed for effects); 3D Studio Max (the leader in 3D animation and rendering and a good supplement to Rhino); Autodesk® Gmax® is a free 3D modeling and animation software from the mob that makes 3D Studio max - gmax allows users to produce everything from characters and vehicles to landscapes and props; see http://www.turbosquid.com/gmax
