If you just google, you'll probably find lots of info out there. Here's one result I thought might be interesting:

Good luck!

Do you mean that you cannot access the web page or you don't understand what's on the page? The link I provided should indicate that it's the theory of polygon modelling. It's a good way to get some basics.

I think that the purpose of the above link was to inform about the real basics of polygon editing. It explained a bit about what polygons are made of, and the vocabulary that is used to describe them. The terminology is pretty much identical across most 3D Suites.

Since this doesn't seem to be what you're looking for, could you be a little more specific about what you're after? Poly modelling is a pretty big topic. Are you just after some introductory tutorials covering Houdini's polygon workflow and operators? Perhaps something more esoteric (and complex), such as how to procedurally model a snowflake from a hexagon?

Sry…yeah, i could have beeen more precise, definately.

I was looking for a tutorial to make random/other shapes(like creatures, weapons, etc.) so that i can start working on game graphic temmplates like to make characters, or even just to make graphics, like a (realistic) guy hammering a nail into a book shelf(currently a floating hammer and nail, next to a book shelf resting on ground; would be nice to have a person there to make it better).

That's what i need help on. I saw a tutorial, not sure on which subject, but it was of a dinosaur-thing being made. If you know about that, i need that type of thing.

(to be more precise )
