By the way I already downloaded blender and it looked harder so i just stuck to Gmax.

Also, I find it easier to model with Blender, then export it to Gmax for exporting into the BF2 editor.

The website is www.blender.org if your interested.

This is actually covered in the first Tutorial thats on the Turbo Squid Site.

I think it is a Pod Racing engine.

I know its not all that great but i think it a pretty good first model. Does any one have any good Gmax tutorials that teach an absolute beginner the basics?

I would particularly like to know;
How to join objects together?
A a general rule of thumb, how small does an object need to be before it can be ignored and just be skinned on?
Any other tips and tricks to make, good models

Here a new, better Pic:

(The model looks far better in wire frame mode)

try them as few to start with
