I have been looking at the Ldraw.org conversion tutorials but they use DOS and i am on windows 7 
Is it possible to convert the .ldr files from Ldraw/Mlcad/Leocad in after effects?
Leocad can directly export .3DS files.
No, AE cannot. AE is a video editor - MLCad and Leocad are 3d apps that use a specialized file type.

You can download Blender for free (don't ask for help), or buy an expensive but profesional 3d program like Carrara 6.0 or Maya
Well, if you did need help with Blender, I could always help out, because I'm one of the few animators who can actually use Blender for CGI shots. Leo's the best though, he amswered a lot of my questions, and make some great movies, like Plant, with it.
Thanks for the kind offer BG, and Leo I'll download 3DS max trial 
Many 3d software packages can use .3DS files, not just 3DSMax. Blender, C4D, Carrara - whatever you're using can probably import them.

thanks!
