2nd vote for Wings. I'm seeing some amazing models coming out if it (and kicking myself for not getting better at it.)

Hexagon I, well, aside from some strangeness with the inset command (ignore this...;), it looks like it has a lot of tools. I can make basic primitive shapes in it so far, but there's a lot more to it than Wings.

Just download the freebies, play with 'em, and stop by the relevant forums for help and advice. You never know how good you can get...;)
