this would be a good start:

Community Modding - Project Reality Forums

[Rhino]

Moved to community modding.

The main question right now is what part do you want to make?

Do you want to make the model, ie, the 3D object, or do you want to make a skin ie, give the model colour and detail over it or do you want to learn exporting, getting the model and texture from the modelling program into the game or do you want to learn coding, making the object work correctly with getting the weapons firing, it driving well etc ingame?

You can't really learn all of these aspects, well at least not all in one go anyways. Takes years to learn all the aspects to a good level.

Pick an area then we can point you in the right direction for that area.

can i use maya software to make my vehicles?

Yea you can use Maya but I think only a certain version works with the exporter available. Like Rhino said it can take a lot of time to learn everything and it all depends on what your interest in. If you wanna make vehicles you'll probably wanna learn to model and maybe skin as well. Either way it would be good to have a basic understanding of the BF2 editor and BF2's file structure.
