3D Animation Workshop Reference Page
Although the focus is on animation, these pages are a great starting point for the world of 3D modelling.
Some of the information, especially in the earlier chapters, is a little dated- the author talks about "fast" PC's running at 200Mhz! Some of the later chapters talk about advanced topics in 3D Studio Max, Lightwave, and SoftImage.
