Hi great squeakers, is it possible to create in squeak an app like Blender 3d or is it better to stay with blenders system. I would like to organize a school in Brazil where we will be teaching programing. I want to teach around creation of a software app on a large scale that is why I like blender 3D. Let me know all your thoughts.

Depending where you want to go with this, you can also dig deeper into the underpinnings. There is previous work on doing raytracing directly in smalltalk: Squeak Port: http://map.squeak.org/package/3993429e-7493-42a3-ab07-40b57d677117 Original VW announcement: http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/userblogs/buck/blogView?showComments=true&...
No idea what the license is, but it does show that you can do what you want in Smalltalk/Squeak. It just takes time and effort (a lot of it to rival Blender3d).
