LOTS of things you can learn about modeling/skinner. Not necessary the same exact department, but it will teach you ALOT of things some of you could apply to. Basically where community mods began from is Half Life.

More of a program than a tutorial (site has documentation though), it's a free map making program that seems pretty strong: http://www.mapzoneeditor.com/index.php

Blender seems a little complicated, so i was wondering if I could use Google sketchup to make my model, then load it into blender and then, put it in the game

yes you can, but you cant unwrap it on sketch up, my husaberg (page 51 i believe in the upcoming models 2 thread) is done entirely in sketchup
