Sorry Pestcontrol, I'd buggered off this morning and have very little knowledge of models. I'm sure there are loads of sites that have information on it.

1. A 3D polygonal representation of an object.
2. In a 3D modeling program. You'll need one that can export models to Half-life's model format, I think Milkshape 3D can do this.
3. cycler_sprite or cycler.
4. No I don't think so, instead just cover the model with a brush textured with the {BLUE-texture, turn the brush into func_wall, in it settings set Render Mode to Solid and FX Amount to 255.

It's generally not recommended to cover a model with a CLIP-brush since this can cause the model to disappear from certain angles.
