Just starting out

[GIJF430]

Hello, I have been looking at tons of various models you talented people have been working on, and I am inspired to create something of my own, preferably a car. I was wondering where should I start? If, and what, programs should I look into or buy? I have some experience in Cadd, but I dunno if that helps. Please, if you could give me any advice as to what I should do, I would greatly appreciate it!!!!!!

well i prefer to watch a video tutorial, look at 3d-palace.com, there are tutorials for 3 cars, those modellers uses 3ds max 5,6, and after this you are able to model beautifull cars

Thanks for your help, but I don't know if it's just me, but I'm having troubles playing the tutorials at 3d-palace. I've registered and downloaded the Codec, but it tells me that "'it' can't find the website that contains the information," or something along those lines, when I try to play it (The Audi A3). Could you recommend a different site? Or do you know what's my problem?

well, i dont know the answer for your problem with playing the video tutorial, but you can find very, very good tutorial at:

Yeah thanks anyway, I figured that I just needed to unzip the RAR files, which is the format for those tutorials lol. And by the way, those where pretty good tutorials too!
