3D modeling- basic design
CaptSnazFebruary 26, 2011
Pros
I haven't used it yet, but they claim - or SEEM to claim -- (I don't know, they're kind of wordy about it) - Ease-of-use for the beginner.
Cons
MUCH, MUCH too expensive. For a beginner product, it's over-priced. I don't know who their target market is, but there are a lot of customers out there who will go elsewhere for their starter software.
Summary
Just reading the description on this software makes me wonder about the motives of the designers. I've used free software that has some fairly user-friendly interfaces. I can't imagine finding one I'd want to pay $1k big bucks for. -- Possibly a program that does more than just the basics, but a starter program? - Shockingly overpriced.

Developer’s Description

By Ashlar-Vellum

Work your design idea from concept to 3D model.

Argon offers entry-level 3D modeling without the commitment of high-end professional packages. It contains the same solid and surface modeling, rendering engine and animation tools found in Cobalt and Xenon, but without the high-end mechanical design and extreme productivity features you may not need--yet. For both Macintosh and Windows, Argon lets you model and render with such a straightforward interface that you'll forget you're using a computer. Intended for those needing precision 3D modeling without cumbersome parametric history.
