Blender
Blender is a free and open source 3D creation suite covering modeling, sculpting, UV editing, rigging, animation, simulation, VFX camera tracking, and rendering with its built-in Cycles path-tracing engine.
Why it stands out
It is a fully featured, production-grade 3D pipeline released under the GNU GPL and owned by its contributors, so the entire suite is free forever and extensible through a Python API and a vast community add-on ecosystem.
