Zbrush Site - http://pixologic.com/

Cost : $795 (cheaper with student license but not able to use it for commercial projects)

No trial version of Zbrush available. If you wish to try a sculpting program for free, Pixologic has a free program avaialbe very similar to Zbrush called Sculptris. You can download it here.

Another important thing I wanted to mention, Zbrush has NEVER charged anyone for an update to their software which is unheard of in this industry. Zbrush has been around for about 12 years and the software is at version 4R6 and every release has added unbelievable new tools. For those of you paying for Adobe upgrades every year, this will be a nice change of pace....
