Wings 3D
Wings 3D is an open-source subdivision modeler featuring a clean, context-sensitive interface. It provides a focused set of mesh-editing operations across vertices, edges, and faces. Designed purely for mesh creation, it includes integrated UV unwrapping tools without the overhead of scene-level animation suites.
