Tips
1.Start out Small: Don't try to make a huge long ship with many turrets, right after you start Modelling. It reqires lots of practice.
2.Don't get Defensive: Don't get mad when you show off you model, and some tell you that they don't like it.Listen to their advice, But don't change your whole model if You like it.
3.Don't let better Modellers intimidate you: Don't never think you can't make models like some others, if you think like that, you probley never will model like them.
4.Practice: Practice,Practice,Practice, skill will come in time.
5.The Biggest critic is yourself: If you first model doesn't look good, don't tell yourself you can't model. Modelling skill doesn't show up over night.
6.Get Advice: Don't be afraid to ask for advice, Good modellers won't flame you.

Q:What other Programs can I get besides Truespace 3.2?
A:3DS Max is another program used by the FS2 Community, but it is hard to get ahold of free, or you could just pay over $200 dollors for it.But, G-Max that is very close to 3DS Max is free. Wings 3D is free, as is Blender and both are very powerful in the right hands. Rhino 3D is another Expensive program, and Lightwave 3D is another. And Truespace 5.2 is another powerful program and it runs about $299, but you can get it as cheap as $99 at some times.
