the Soya3d opengl game engine was rewritten last winter using Pyrex -- the 
versions up to 0.6 where in C, but 0.7 and now 0.8 with a Pyrex core 
instead (well it's generated to c for compiling but you know what i mean)
((iirc they went to pyrex to get rid of nasty segfaults in the c core))

the API is pretty much like Blender (the modelling side), so it might be 
interesting to see how meshes etc. are done and provided for there .. 
https://gna.org/projects/soya/ (the models are made with Blender, and 
there's an export script to make cal3d shapes of ones with armatures)
