But you can use LightWave, Maya, Cinema4D, Electric Image/Universe 5, Hash, Mechanisto, Infini-D, Ray-Dream, POV-Ray, Bryce, Strata 3D and many more. Basically any 3D modeler can create Ship and Outfit graphics.
Or maybe you're talking about coding? In that case, I usually use (url="http://"http://w00tware.ev-nova.net/")Nova Tools(/url) (a plug-in for (url="http://"http://www.resexcellence.com/support_files/resedit.shtml")ResEdit(/url)), but once (url="http://"http://www.ariossoftware.com/products/evone/")EVONE(/url)'s oütf and shďp editors are done I'll use it.
There's also (url="http://"http://davidarthur.evula.net/")Mission Computer(/url), which some people like.------------------

(shameless advertisement)Or you can use Blender, it's great and powerfull, and it's free(/shameless advertisement)
It may not be as good as Lightwave and Maya and all that stuff, but it's FREE! I like that
And for the programming I use Novatools (altough I use EVONE for creating the universe, way easier.)------------------
You can run but then you die tired -
You can use Strata 3D. Its good but its not up to Lightwave (Though, some pepole make me think otherwise...)

A life, ohhhh, that a new plug-in right?
"Borb II of V.S.S Hellfire." -
Strata 3D base (home), Strata 3Dpro (uni), and anything at uni that I can be bothered learning. ie: not lightwave for now.
Blender... bah!
~A~
EDIT: Oh yeah, I also used to use Mechanisto, but my skills outgrew it.

Being a German you could go patriotic and buy yourself a version of Cinema 4D. It's developed by a German company called Maxon, (url="http://"http://www.maxon.de")www.maxon.de(/url). If you're a student, I think it is as low as 300 $ (which is quite a lot even though it's usually 1500 $.)
Have fun,

It's unfortunate that it get's so often overlooked. Some of the work I've seen come out of it is phenominal. It's just a matter of learning it which can take a great deal of time. It's far from intuitive. But it's become my main 3D app. Other than that I like to use Wings3D which is actually very simple to use. You'll just need another program to use for texturing and rendering.

Welcome to the boards!
As for creating the ship images, I have heard good things about blender and used strata quite a bit, you can find more about them with a quick search, as well as a link to Strata 3D 3.0.2, which has most of the pro features, and is also free.
As for making ship resources, feel free to try (url="http://"http://www.evula.org/infernostudios/downloads/SpaceShip2.sit")SpaceShip(/url), a beta of an application I am developing in my free time.
