Its all trial and error, learn as you go along.. the tutorials arent going to tell you how to make every type of ship, just follow a tutorial, to learn what things do what, and then experiment with whatever prgram your using

I'd suggest not bothering about scaling in Milkshape. Just make a box 1 unit by 1 unit by 1 unit in milkshape and export the CMP. The use FLmodel tool to increase the scale and use hardcmp to work out how big it is. That's how I do my scaling ... I really don't worry about how big or small something is in milkshape ... FLMODel tool does all the scaling so well there's really no point (for me anyway).
