First of all it takes years to reach the level where you'll be able to produce stuff on par with top game titles, so don't expect that to happen anytime soon.

Secondly, you can't really do this if you get bored because there's a lot of tools to choose from (if 3D is for you, something like that should actually get you excited.)

Thirdly, start with something dead simple. Classic starting point would be, for example, a soda can. Just that, and nothing else. Get the shape right. Then add a color texture, and try to get that right. When happy, move on to setting up some lights. Play around with that until it looks really good.

There are tons of tutorials to check out online. Start here -> http://forums.cgsociety.org/forumdisplay.php?f=95
