Some suggest trying gmax out. Its max watered down. Its a pain to bring a ship into mod format. I haven't tried it yet but its free. Do a search for it.

I use milkshape. Price went up to 25 dollars.  there is a 30 day trial period.  It can make decent models. Its the easiest to learn.  You can use some of what you learn later  if you get max.  For an example of a milkshape model-check my Norway thread,  takes a bit longer to model in milk perhaps but the price is right
