I want to start getting into some modeling for FPS Creator. I like doing and making stuff like that, but I'm not exactly sure on what program to use. I want a realatively easy program that has good results. I use Milkshape right now (what I used to edit the prisoner models), and I have also used Anim8or (ehh, not the best one). I have used 3DStudio Max 9, but it was too complex.

I would recommend Blender, but that is apparently complex for beginners, but Blender was my first Modeller.

You spent $3500 on a program and don't use it

Isn't there a trial for 3ds max? Maybe he used a trial. But ya if your going to use milkshape it's extremely basic and hard to sculpt in is the only problem.
