How? It boggles my mind on how they can do it. I mean i can follow a tutorial and i can complete it but i don't learn anything from it since after i have done the tutorial i just forget everything, and when i try to do something on my own it looks like a piece of -blam!-. (Both 3D modeling and programming)
I have the time and dedication to learn these things but i just don't know how to get started, if anyone could please give me some pointers i would appreciate it greatly.
I am the kind of guy who learns from experience not reading a book over and over again to be honest.
I want to learn, i really do i just don't know how to get started or keep the information i remember for like 5 seconds after the tutorial for a longer period of time.
I have problems with money so book's are not much of an option right now atleast, i would have choosen something with programming as my line of education but i want this more as a thing i do for fun, a thing i do for the enjoyment of other's so i can make them happy and as a thing i can feel appreciated for doing. Also because i want to be my own boss.
Please help me.
TL:DR Point me in a direction to start please with the two things in the title of this thread.
I got Blender alredy if that's any help, and i can maybe make a -blam!- looking table in it.

For 3D Modelling use 3DS Max or Maya. I use 3DS Max as part of my course. [Edited on 10.08.2012 1:18 AM PDT]
