is there anyone willing to help a noob get started with 3d modelling? i've tried working through the tutorials that come with gmax and have a basic concept of the way it works (very basic but ya only learn by doing) an made the modualr freighter in a tutorial i found here but enything i try to start myself ends up lookking like a block with weird bits hanging off it

 

help over a messenger style of program would be really good but i can work through IM if that's better. i have most messenger things besides icq but hell i can always download more of em

Did you also read the one about spline-modelling ?

 

I usually combine both traditional box-modelling and spline-modelling to get the shapes I want

i musta missed that one was it in the same tutorial or a diffeent one. BTW thanks for that one it explained a lot that gmax tutorials didn't
