Hello,
I just wanted to show my helicopter I’m currently working on. Modelling-wise I’m yet to build the cockpit as well as an pilot as you can see. But other than that the whole model is pretty much ready for texturing.
Let me hear what you think!

Thank you!
Sure, I’ll share a image of the cockpit aswell if anyone find it interesting 
The wires are in different colours but that’s just because I want to put different parts of the bird in the same texture map and shader later on.
Nice modelling, with those panelling details that for me stand out - so good going! and I’ll definitely keep an eye out as you progress.
Cheers 
Wow… you are really good at this ! keep it up 
Do you use Maya, 3Ds or which software? im trying to do this type of thing but still learning though.
I will track this… pretty impressive work !
Nice work on the helicopter, the model looks great and the textures seems to be coming along with great result as well. Looking forward to seeing the finished version. 
What kind of environment will you render the final result in?
Thanks guys!
I’m working in Maya, Photoshop and Mudbox. Those are my primary tools on a daily basis 
I will render the bird in a dusty Irak/Afghanistan sort of landscape. I’m going to get some shots of of it up in the sky later on but first I’ll have to make a pilot 
Here is another WIP of the texturing process. I can’t wait to get this thing rendered!

Hello,
here’s a few shots of the bird
