Milkshape is better.

Is it free and only 2 megabytes? :O!
I don't really know much about Blender, but I have been finding stuff out on my own since I couldn't find a tutorial :[

LoL @ shapes... Man, that's like using the circle and rectangle tool in msPaint.

3D Studio Max is the best 3D creation program hands down. People might argue that Blender or Milkshape is easier, but that is complete crap. 3D Studio Max is like molding clay in your hands once you learn how to use it.

The learning curve for 3D is really really really steep though. Once you get past it, the doors will just open up for you.

I've never had to sit down and use the help guide to learn how to use a program before. Until I started using 3DS Max.

3D isn't really that difficult once you understand that it's just really about adjusting vertices using different camera views...

^ Agreed. Before 3DS, buying books in order to learn software would have been a crazy thought for me.

Though I've always been a little annoyed at Max's interface. Thank god there's shortcuts.
I still use CC for simple objects though.

Nifty, I think I shall download this "3D Studio Max"

What do you guys think about Lightwave?

Haven't used lightwave myself, but it was used as the key modelling software in the Serious Sam series.
