And I'm really enjoying it. 3d modeling is really fun and I could see myself doing it as a career. It's like digital sculpting :D! Hopefully if anyone here starts learning how to program 3d games I can do some modeling help.

So anyways, here's my first modeling job. The cd is kinda crappy I know, but we had to have 3 items and 95% of the time was obviously spent on the Wiimote.

That's awesome.
I love 3D modeling, but I cannot use much more than Wings 3D [or maybe 3ds] due to my piece of junk comp.

What do you recommend for beginners? zbrush, maya, or 3d max?

It depends on what you prefer. Maya is like digital sculpting. Zbrush is a weird hybrid between digital sculpting and painting. 3dsmax is more math based. Overall I'd say maya is the easiest though. It's pretty user friendly. It takes a certain amount of raw talent though. A lot of people in my class simply couldn't do it, and mine was the best. Those very same people owned me when it came to painting though lol. I hate 2d surfaces.
