Advice for a first time modder?

Hello all!

So I've been wanting to make my own clothing/armor mod for a while but haven't had the time to get down to it. I've never made anything similar before so I'm out of my depth. Are there any tips/tricks, advice or tutorials you would suggest for a complete newbie? I tried the armor tutorial on the wiki but it didn't help me much once it said to refer to the picture as the only explanation of how to remove the skeleton. It also didn't seem to tell me how to make the models.

 

As far as programs go...

I have Nifscope, Blender 2.49 with Nif plugin, Adobe CS5 Master Collection I also downloaded the DDS Plugin, and Autodesk 3D Studio Max 2010 with Nif Import/Eporter. I'm pretty acquainted with the Adobe tools Photoshop and Illustrator in particular. I also find 3D Studio Max easier to use than Blender, a lot of that has to do with Blender's camera.

 

If anyone who has made an armor mod for the DIMONIZED UNP body I'd appreciate your insight as that's what I'm wanting to make the armor for.

Bump...

 

I'd also like to ask if there are easier ways to create new armors and clothing using the creation kit, and what some recommended creation kit info would be. Object placement (not the bethesda video or tut) etc, editing terrain and other landscape features of skyrim, and best ways to place buildings in the landscape if they do not fit or terrain is uneven,etc.

 

Thanks
