I have decided I have had enough of sitting around and contributing nothing! From this point on I will give some thing back, may the empire fall if I lie!

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice , welcome to the world of moddeling !!!
I hope you like it and have fun too. As i always said, it´s a real pleasure to watch a model made by your own and sharing with the community.
Tell us anything you need, and if we can, we will help you for sure.

Blender 3D is quite complicated at first,
but once you've learned some basics it'll become easier.
I learned quite alot on using Blender, so if you have questions I might know to help.
However, as a free mesh modelling program, I also heard Wings 3D shall be great.

I wish you a good progress on your journey. :)
