basic modeling

i am new to blender i am mostly in to animation but i know i need to know some stuff bout modeling.i mostly need to kno how to model a basic person that can have armature added.so where are some good tutorials for basic character modeling?the models dont even have to look good i mostly want 3D stick people.

there is no easy answer to that. you probably want to learn ‘box modelling’ techniques, and for the rigging you’ll want to learn a) how to make vertex groups and b) weight painting. try otos tutorials on these subjects. they are quite well done and easy to understand.
