i use milkshape, it works good for me.

CaptainChet

i would recommend a combo of 3ds max and milkshape.

you know whats more annoying than people who dont read the pinned topics/ use search before posting? people that have notging to say except read the stickies...

anyways, yeah milkshape will do you good since you are new. maybe later, a LOT later you can move to advanced stuff like maya.

Chrono

or if you think your l337 (like me) you can start of with 3dsmax i think its great and it has a bunch of tutorials that realy help out

Iced_Eagle

Yeah to be honest I would start off on what you want to use in the future when you get good (ala 3DS Max)... if you don't have the time, patience, and effort into trying really hard to break through the steeper learning curve then yay good job!!! but taking the easy way to milkshape is awesome too (they are still models ya know <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

im not too big of a fan of 3dmax but i would have to agree with chet, learn both

S-ocker

milkshape rules but ... it allready passed the 30 day limit <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo--> and im not paying money for a moddeling program

MS3D... it's the best for the least.
3D Studio MAx... if you can afford the price tag
Lithium Unwrap... mostly used in tandum with MS3D, but it's a solid modeling program in itself.
Maya Personal Learning Edition... not bad, hard for me to learn, but that's me.
