I'm in University and we only learned Rhinoceros (I had a teacher explaining me a bit of blender but we don't use it and I just know the basics) and for one of my classes we are designing a concept electric car and my part of the work is to do the interior BUT I'm going insane because it's incredibly hard to model using nurbs (I cheat a bit and use the t-splines plug in)
Is there any easier software to model the interior of a car (the final model needs to be 3d printed )?

Basically everything has a modeling toolkit capable of it.

You can use Blender, which apart from being one of the best modelers out there, it's free. And you'll be in a large community full of knowledgeable people happy to help you with your learning. Look at BlenderNation for example.

Ffs sake, wanna go cheap get fusion 360 for t-spline modeling. And it will make the rest of the electric car modeling tons easier since it's actually a cad package. Go kick your teacher after that.

The only way to go if you want to see your work produced at some point.

>>678289
Go on. Try to build a data set in blender that holds up to production standards. Better yet, do it entirely in poly modelling because fuck it.

>>679154
No need for that, Rhino has official support for T-Splines via plugin.

Well he said "one of the best" and not "the single best". Solely the fact that people are comparing it to stuff like Max or Maya puts it up there. But yeah

proper edge sliding and cut tool. every time u make a cut you have to click the cut tool again. even mayas multi-cut tool is amazing. also you cant key bind subobjects, you cant chamfer(you have to use a shitty modifier) and there is no preview for diagonal edges that you can toggle to switch directions for shading.

not learning Rhino right now but when I returning to it for college this will be incredibly helpful
