You use your paint program. There are lots of tutorials for the most popular ones that you can google and follow.

Learing a new skill is always satisfying. In your first example there's still a white border. Before you make the selection in Photoshop, you can increase the tolerance value to select more pixels.
The border looks like plain white but when you zoom in you'll see there are grey pixels too:

\O/ Well done Pedro! Just continue to practice, refine and improve it and you'll have opened a whole new world for yourself as a mission designer.

They may teach that at one of your local universities, technical schools, or extensions. Other than that, Adobe has online training for Photoshop, for example (
http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2013/09/free-13-hour-photoshop-course-adobe-knowhow.html).
As to 3d modeling. Again it depends on the tool you have. If you have 3ds Max, then again there are online classes offered. If you have Anim8or, there are some for that too. Blender ... etc.
