no 3d app is "EASY", but theres many that our out there. Theres the free one, www.blender.org, than theres 3ds Max(which I use), Lightwave, Cinema4d, and many more. None are easy, they will take awhile to learn, but all have the capability to do what you want.

yeah i use 3d max too. How are you wanting to model the character?

Polys?
Nurbs?

3D in general is almost an exact science , and requires time and patients to get close to perfection

3Dmax and lightwave are 2 higher end products , but without some sort of training you might just find yourself wallowing in the mire of helplessness

a course at tafe collage or a short course at uni would help, as its realy hard to get a grasp in self help mode

you could always come up with the ideas and get someone else to do the modeling for you, we can be great at all things , some are better at things than others

designers are never good coders

coders are never good designers

there are thinkers and there are do'ers

we cant be good at everything , apply yourself to your talent and get others to help
