Do you have to make those models on your own, or is there a way to convert icons into models? Take an example of AoM, if possible, could you even tell me yourself, vile?
Exactly, just...
I never made any models...so...how do I start, and with what?
you start with a modeling program like wings 3d, blender (those are free), 3ds max etc. But you need dedication, ambition, patience and time if you really want to do this. If not, I advise you to never think of doing it again.
