This. I'm all good for screwing around, and I learn that way, but when something is brand new, it's good to have someone around. 3ds max is.. overwhelming. What's something good and simple that I can model? And don't say a cube.

Sphere ^O^

You never did make that Egg i told you to make.... Even with my little dabbling, i managed to make 15 "Meh" quality models. I can do much better now

@Loose, If you put it that way, yeah things get done a lot faster. On the other hand, I didn't get that kind of instruction, but instead the teacher just told us to make whatever for our assignments, and he would come to help out if we decided to go beyond what he taught the class as a whole. Me, I always go overboard, making some fantasy coatl/dragon hybrid for the creatures assignment >_>

@Erich, Stuff you can try to model:

A tree
An hourglass
An animal (don't try skinning, the polygons are complex enough)
A pylon
Some weapon
Your avatar >_>

All of these you can do in less than 15 minutes. Except a realistic tree, that'll take much longer.

Make a sombrero.

Oh god i need to download a 64 bit version of 3ds 2010 or 11 >< I want to make this!
