DOGA/Bryce (ship modelers read)

[Phoenix-D]

I work 99% in Bryce, with some DOGA parts.

Bryce has it's points, but so does DOGA. Bryce only has one render window at once, period. However you can change to a top-down or side perspective at any time- click on the mountain right below the micro preview box to switch views, or click the drop-down arrow next to it to select a view from a list. Once you have aview you want, click on one of the gray oval pips next to the mini-preview. That'll save that view and you can access it again by pressing that pip.

Give yourself time to get used to the interface, it can be a bit confusing at first. Use whatever works best for you; there are other programs out there you could try, like Blender, moray, milkshape, etc.

They also have the advantage of creating lower-poly models that can be exported to the .x format. Once Starfury comes out you'll be able to make ships for it using them, but -not- DOGA or Bryce.
