Has anyone used blender for 2d/3d graphics?

I'm trying to see what is the easiest for doing 3d graphics or even 2d. I came across blender and wanted everyone's opinion on it, or if you have another program you recommend for graphics please share.

    Blender has a bit of a learning curve to overcome. Though, once you start getting used to the interface, its a fantastic program to use. I've used it for some basic 3D animation for a simple indie game I am working on(https://www.facebook.com/AirfieldCity) and found it to be perfect. Though, I haven't used it for creating any "realistic" 3D work, so can't comment in that area.

    A great site for tutorials is Blender Cookie: http://cgcookie.com/blender/ . I'd recommend you start there.

    Regards,

    Peter.

    I've been using Blender for my current game, I think its awesome but does have a learning curve I'm still learning and like Peter said cgcookie or even youtube great place to start and the fact that its free even better.

    @mounted88,

    Yes, all the animation was done in Blender. Though the final transition was done in iMovie.

    Regards,

    Blender is much improved from previous years. It has it's own way of doing things but I choose it over 3DS Max for somte things.
