Modeling is completely beyond me. I tried Wings3D and some tutorials. Most of the tutorials just talk about the user interface and how make a box into a ball and back. Not many out there showing how to actually use the interface and techniques to actually make something.

BionicRooster found me a tutorial for wings that made a jar with a lid. Making the lid was the first part and was about 6 minutes long. I think I managed to get to the 3 minute mark or so before I started to get mega confused and was totally and completely lost. I finally gave up.

Fugazi has a number of tutorials in his store on modeling. Maybe look there. You might have to learn a different program to follow some tutorials, but once you know the "how", you could probably adapt it to the program that you most use.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
