im just tryin to help ya here so dont get mad at me, as somebody who once did what ur doing, let me tell u, u cant use generic shapes to make ur model on milkshape, u will waste so many polies, how many is that btw? learn to model the right way in milkshape, vertex by vertex and connecting them, or learn to use the tools so u can make a whole model out of one box, thats generally how to model in 3dsmax but i figured out how to do it in milkshape cause my version of max got screwed up, i hope i helped, but just trust me, its better to do ur first one the right way then to have to relearn it all like i did
