Hi Michelle-
I strongly recommend Adobe Dimensions 3 for starting your modeling adventures. It's only $149 and will output as vector or as bitmap. I'm attaching a sample here.
The next step up, at least bucks-wise, I'd have to say trueSpace 5, $900 I think, but it's got all the heavy-end features:animation, Non-Uniform B-Splines (NURBs), Particles. Metaballs, and an interface that will drive you to drink the first day you try it.
Then it gets better <g>.
Glad you liked the book. It's not selling so well, but hey, it's summer, and a lot of classrooms use my work. Ah, well...
Kindest Regards,
