That's a real hard one to answer because the tutorial would be pages and pages and pages long. Basically just make your ship. I find that making something like a box, then going to Modify, and selecting Edit Mesh works well because you can manipulate the square to the shape you actually want. Other than that I would suguest just experimenting with putting different shapes together and using different Modify commands. You'll get the hang of it eventually but you have to have pashents. Don't expect to make a breathtaking ship right off the bat.

What you then want to do is export the ship, saving it as a 3DS file. From there you can import into milkshape, and the rest is history.
