My friends and I became obsessed with Blender when I was around 13 or 14. This was around 10 years ago and the interface was definitely idiosyncratic back then, but we didn't find any difficulties learning it, and we were able to make some amazing things. Blender made up a lot of my GCSE* in art and gave me some great times working on Blender projects with my friends on Google Hangouts way past our bedtimes. I'd fully recommend it to your nephew. *a qualification taken at 16 in the UK
