A free and very easy modeling tool, imports/exports half-life models

Its a good start for anyone who is put off by the complexity of 3ds max, blender and Maya. You could also model in hammer then compile and import to khed with nems crafty tool.

Great! Thank you for the information.

Also good program for HL modeling - Milkshape 3D http://www.milkshape3d.com/

If you want to do animations then go with Milkshape 3d, its 25 EUR after 30 days trial but it does support a lot more game formats.

A few others 3d programs that might be worth a look here.

I`ve been playing around with Khed, this is my first model of a v2 rocket.

It seems that in windows 8 you need to run as administrator if you have any saving/export problems, and textures must be in 8 bit indexed colour to work.
