Some notable options:
- Moment of Inspiration — very nice for free-forma sculpting, esp. if one uses a graphics tablet or tablet with an active stylus
- Shapr3D — 3D CAD sculpting on an iPad Pro w/ Apple Pencil
- Solidworks — industry standard w/ inexpensive licensing options for US and Canadian veterans and members of an experimental aircraft association
- MeshCAM — probably the easiest 3D CAM tool: Shapeoko CNC Router, Rigid, Accurate, Reliable, and Affordable
- Autodesk Fusion 360 — available on an annual license basis (free for some folks)
- Vectric Vcarve or Aspire — pretty much the standard for folks doing signs
