Interesting.
I wonder how it compares with Blender?
I suspect SILO may allow more precise input of co-ordinates, but I'm not sure.

I installed Inkscape, which apparently has some of the artistic features
in the software that was promoted via spam. Inkscape is a vector
graphics program, sort of the open source version of CorelDraw. I

Andy - do you want a CAD program, or something to create beautiful
characters to put into your next 3D game, or test your Renderman shader
programming skills, or...
How about BRL-CAD, OpenSCAD, SolveSpace, or even the old 2D QCad?
Just my 0.02c, from attending too many SIGGRAPH conferences...
