Best would be to start by downloading some sample files: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_2_Sample_Models

And see how are they done.

Then go trough some tutorials: http://tactical.nekromantix.com/wiki/doku.php?id=ofp:modeling:tutorials

And after that start asking specific questions here.

 

Thats how iam doing it, and it goes well so far.

How do modders create their own .p3d model files (for infantry) and add uniform textures to them?

And do they use BIS sample models and only change textures and add custom gear to them? 

Using the sample models as template seems to be smart thing to do, to me.

 

You also need some software. Oxygen 2, BinPbo, TexWiev, Gimp (or photoshop) and some other 3D modeling software besides Oxygen 2, as i personaly find Oxygen to be rather difficult to use. I use Wings 3D and Blender.

 

But first see the tutorials, Lot of them. The tutorials i posted before helped me a lot, they will help you too. Do them!
