Teddy is a sketch-based 3D modeling software.
You can make interesting 3D models just by drawing freeform strokes.
Teddy is written in Java (jdk1.1), and mainly designed for windows platforms.

I've used this program to make nifty little character models for a while, very easy and intuitive. I dig the simplicity of drawing a shape and having the program extrapolate it into a 3D mesh. Check out the demonstration video listed above to see, if you like futzing around with CG stuff, you'll likey.
