Yes, you can get the trial but it is version 12, which is so full of bugs
you need an industrial size can of raid to go with it. Last version that was
any good was 11.2. That's what I continue to use despite having bought 12.
After several patches they have still failed to fix it. They have since
given up and now want everyone to buy the new version. To see what it is
capable of, go he http://www.turbocad.com/examples.asp

I use the exported CAD components in StrataCX for texturing and
rendering.
I don't think any single program would handle this.
Did you know my Mac also boots in XP?...if I want it to? It's all
Intel now.

TurboCad Professional will allow you to design in 3D and then render in
hidden line, draft and quality rendering. You choose your materials,
choose
the finish (ie reflectivity, % opacity), choose the light source(s), and
so
on. TurboCad has gotten a bit more expensive over the years, but the
features make it worthwhile if you need to perform 2D and 3D operations.

Not sure, but I think you can get a 30-day trial of turbocad to try ...
you'll have to check the web site.
