I'm not sure if this is the correct section but I want to ask what model editing software should a COMPLETE novice in 3D modeling...


And anyone can recommend any websites to learn the basics?





Yes, I already googled and already found some sites... but I'm not quite sure which is which...

3DSmax easyer to learn tbh.

3d max -> easy to model and render quickly
solidworks -> easy to model, logical interface, harder to render

autodesk 3d max one of the popular 3d modelers, it has a million and 3 tutorial for it out there and a free trial


definitially get it, i like it myself, a bit confusing but rather simple once the main concepts have been understood

I also asked the same question on a game modding forum... and they recommended me gMax and 3Dmax..


So I'll probably stick with 3DMax

I've been in the modelling things a while

I know a very simple program and is very user friendly called Sketchup;

http://sketchup.google.com

You can make houses in just 1 day, its amazing....

When you are good with Sketchup you can step over to 3DSMax 9 :)

C4D Is, first of all, a bitch to get for free, and horrible to learn as well, IMO.
