Hi Frank--

If anyone asks me what a good, straightforward, semi-robust 3D program is to buy, I usually recommend Adobe Dimensions 3D. It will not do shadows or reflections, but you can texture map surfaces and the think is only $149 US, retail.

I'd recommend this program as a "study" to increase your understanding of how 3D exists on our computers, and how to jazz up a lifeless dtp page or so.
