Dust3D is a unique 3-D modelling package, where you create a model buy placing nodes. These are automatically connected to form the larger model. For example, if you were making a finger, you would place a node at the tip, and at each knuckle, and edit the scale and position of these nodes to create the desired shape, rather than having to draw the points and vertexes yourself.

The main developer used to post videos on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jeremyhu5559/videos

Games From Scratch did a video on it in 2020: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MytN8t4guuM

It seems simple on the surface, but you also have good tools for creating surfaces, animation and poses and creating skeletons, and even procedural generation through scripting with JavaScript.
