Research into Blender and free to use software !

For this term I have decided to make a switch in modeling software, having being taught primarily on Autodesk maya for the first 2 years. Although this being a risky manouver in my last year of university I really wanted to get into open source software which meant I could use it freely after university and continue to build on my skill set without being hit with large costs by corporate groups.
