Metasequoia is a 3D polygon modeling software for 3D computer graphics and video game development. It enables the user to create complex and organic objects, like humans or creatures, and works with a light response.

Metaseq is an entry level software. It allows using various standart 3D functions and options. Yet it remains pretty basic, yet good for beginners. Currently not the entire help/manual file, of said software is translated in to English, which slows up a lot the learning curve, for people not fluent with Japan language. Help on the net seems to be generally scarce.
