I'm currently using V4.5 (Linux - V5 isn't available for Linux 
yet) and the demo version for V4.5 were only limited in the size 
of textures that could be used and the size of the renders 
produced.  As you wouldn't be using these features for modelling 
they wouldn't be an issue.  However, there isn't a demo version 
of V5 yet and I don't know how it will be limited.

Be warned that many people think that it has a very steep 
learning curve but personally, find it very logical and it has 
the best modelling tools I've ever used (not that I've tried 
many other 3d packages - I haven't ever really felt the need 
since I started using V4)
