anim8or is a very small and easy to use program. a big thums up for doing basic design stuffs. I think that amorphium is definitly the nicer program, even with a nicer interface it has a slightly higher learning curve. of course, none of these hold a candle to the real professional packages, but they are certainly good enough for making any kind of shipset that you might imagine.

the down side is that amorphium is a trialware program, and you have to buy it eventually. so unless you are planning on doing alot of 3d work (and cant budget for the real big boys toys) then i would stick with the anim8or.
