Since this month's custom content challenge is new weapons, here's a pdf tutorial I found showing a beginning modeler how to make a working 3-part sword (or other weapon) in only 123 simple steps using Gmax, NwMax, Chiliskinner and Gimp (or any similar image editor).
(I tried it myself and although my weapon didn't look half as nice as the one in the tutorial, it did teach me the fundamentals of making my first working set of sword mdl's from the ground up.)
Also included are Gamx, NwMax, and the tutorials sample weapon part files (by Danmar) in original zip (NwMax may be out of date)
I claim no credit for the authorship of any files (uploaded for convince and to save load on source server)

Thank you, this is just what I needed, a tutorial that covers the basics, and every piece of software used is available for free, no excuses now :) _________________________ All the thanks the designer gets is your vote, please use it.
