Learning Blender

I have recently started to tinker around with a 3d modeling and animation program, Blender. I want to make an effort to learn to model in 3d because I think it will make creating wild perspectives and forms much easier and interesting if done right. Unfortunately 3d max and Maya are way out of my price range at the moment. So for now I am going to see what I can do with Blender, which is a free open source program. Just google Blender 3d program and you will find it.

Anyhow in my first day of playing around with the program I was able to model in 3d a submarine, with multiple moving parts, and animate it as well. It is certainly nothing fancy, but hey , it's a start.
