A view of the planet Galentor from space...

I've been using a very venerable program called Truespace 3 for the cg in Tyranny of the Daleks but am thinking of upgrading to either Lightwave, Cinema 4d or Softimage. Lightwave is the preferred choice although the most expensive. Also I'm thinking of buying Vue5 Esprit for certain sequences involving shots of natural landscapes for the sequences in Episode 4 when the Daleks attack en masse.
