Is there a ragdoll tutorial for someone completely new to modelling?

[mista_bojjob]

I'm trying to use tutorials to try and turn this MMD model into a ragdoll for my fiancee but all of them assume that I have knowledge of modelling programs.

I've tried blender and autodesk but I'm completely hopeless.

Does anyone have a good tutorial?

The farthest I have got is importing the model into blender and that's it.

If it's easier, I would rather make it for SFM but whichever doesn't matter.

Regarding plugins, use mariokart's PMD plugin for 3ds max as long as you're using 2012. If you use blender, there's a handful of plugins (MMD_tools and meshio for example). 3ds max doesn't have a PMX importer but I've gotten away fine with importing them into blender and exporting them into max. Keep in mind that MMD is made for renders so most models go far over GMod's bone limit.

yeah I really wanted to update the compiling videos, but with source film maker in mind aswell.
anybody know any SFM masters?

oh I was working on PMX import, but I forget or never finished it?
