Hope you guys can help me :)

Welcome to the site. Did you searched the official website for tutorials ( www.newtek.com )? They've got tons of (video)tutorials.
Maybe this one you can use:
basic modeling tutorial?????
Not sure if it is something you can use, because quicktime isn't working here at the moment.

Good luck! Don't be asshamed to post some "work in progresses" here. It would be cool to help you with some projects.

Thats alot :) That vid looks amazing and im sure to check the site out :)

If i get anything im happy with, il post it up :D

Thanks

I've got another tip. Just select a random tool, and start searching on the internet of how it might work. Keep experimenting with the tool untill you starting to understand it.

If you're done, grab another tool and do exactly the same.

Remember that understanding how the tools are working is important. But to understand WHEN to use them is also important.

Thanks alot guys :)

Im gonna start something small soon and post it up if its decent.
