I wouldnt start in blender if i were you. 3ds max is better in my opinion.

ok thx for the info but where can i get a 3dsmax for free >.> blender=free so i m stuck with it :/ 3ds=pay=me no money

Blender was Created for People who dont have a big 3D Knowledge.
Which Max Requires.

Besides the Obvious Different Shortcut Layouts there is no Problem in Starting to gather 3D Knowledge in Blender first and then starting advanced 3D Stuff with Max.

The Most Max Tutorials are on DVD's which you have to Pay for.
Ofcourse there are also Free ones but those arent nearly as Professional like those you Pay for.
Infact, the most Free Tutorials (Regardless for what) mostly dont even Explain what the Current Used Function or Tool does.

Soo,..what do i go for blender? or autodesk?

[HellSniper]

Depends on what your Purpose is.

[Bear]

make some items or maps for fun

Blender would be best for GunZ in my eyes, like Phantom made the Elu im/ex-porter

[Bear]
