So I'm starting a video tutorial series, for beginners. I hope they'll help out others in the same way free knowledge from the internet has helped me! If you've never used Blender, or you've never 3D modeled before, then what are you waiting for - Blender is free!
Download it, and lets get started modeling in Blender!

P3D for Viewing 3D Models
So recently I ran into this awesome online 3D model viewer called P3D. With their service, you can upload a model of your creation, and let others manipulate it through a web browser! No, it's not FLASH, no it's not a plugin - it's just pure BROWSER! WOWZERS! To top it all off, the P3D.in service is completely free!
Click and drag over the model!
So far, I've experienced NO hiccups with this app. I only suggest leaving the "Toggle Subdivide Surface" button alone for models with high polys like Minitaur (created in Sculptris - yet another FREE masterpiece worth downloading and playing with). He has 152,262 faces so I implore you NOT to press it.
The program supports Diffuse, Normal, and Specular maps too! You can toggle between different shaders by using the buttons on the left. Minitaur has no maps on him, but you can view his wireframe-shader, and see his outrageous underlying Sculptris geometry.
Have fun uploading your models, and if you do, post a preview here to share!

My Game: a work in progress
So, I started making a game with blender and Unity some time ago, but have put the project on the shelf for a bit, so that I can learn Maya and extend my skills in modeling.
If you want to know how I did anything in this game preview, feel free to leave a comment, and I will answer questions.
