Do you mean a scene in an AGS game?

If yes I'd like to know this too, as I'm thinking of adding this zany endsequence for Nanotech.

Grrr, i just typed out a long reply but it got moved when i tried to post  >:(

In short:
Blender 3D
Edit - Tutorials - http://download.blender.org/documentation/html/

Wings 3D
Edit - Tutorials - http://www.wings3d.com/tutorials.php

Also consider:
Softimage XSI EXP
Maya PLE
GMax
These 3 a pretty limited so they probably won't be useful. I think a version of Cinema 4D is free also.

Interesting that this question appears again and again. Yet, It's no material for tech archive.
