Haha, nice. I’ll try to get one made for the exporting/importing at a minimum.
I’ll say that I used Alimayo Arango’s YouTube channel to get started with modeling and Blender basics. It’s good for mechanical stuff especially, although his workflow is more for animating within Blender rather than targeting game workflow. So, he breaks his meshes up into several objects, which you probably won’t want to do in the end (most people use 1 or 2 meshes) but that’s getting ahead of ourselves. His basic modeling techniques are solid, and you’ll learn plenty about the basics of animation from his mech videos…but after you make his stuff you’ll likely need to learn about Vertex Grouping and Armature modifiers to get it into “game” shape.
I also got a lot of good insight from a guy named Darrin Lile. Also has a YouTube channel. Search either one of them and you’ll find some good stuff.
Thanks for your help bro you have pretty much answered my questions perfectly haha. I was wondering if its possible to learn blender stuff just in general first so yeah thanks man.
