| hellicopter i created with DeLeD (406 polys)  dave |
| ||
| Cool mesh, dodgy texture :D |
| ||
| Don't give up the day-job ;) |
| ||
| I think it looks okay, apart from texture is mapped to small |
| ||
| Thanks guys,just a texture i found (show me yours napoleon) dave |
| ||
| It is a nice model :) |

| It's not bad, and it could be a lot better if you tweak it a bit. Get a reference pic of a helicopter and tweak the top half of the model. The front is too flat, and the wrong angle. The windows are an odd shape and in the wrong place. With a reference picture, you could line those things up in about ten minutes and it'll look a lot better. As Puki said, the texture is tiled too many times. It seems to be tiled about twenty times down the length of the vehicle. Unwrap it properly so that it only tiles once down the whole length and again, that'll make a huge improvement. You'll be surprised how much difference that little bit of extra effort will make to the final result. Looking at it, I'm pretty sure you made it without using a reference, and considering that, I think it's good work. I couldn't make something that good with no reference. But using references is the key to making those professional quality models. |

| Thanks for the input sybixsus As you said it was made from the top of my head without any thought of scale or size, just a exersize realy. I'le play with it some more dave |

Apologies, I should have been a bit more constructive here. Anyway, if I had to model a helicopter, I'd go for something like this: I made this in about 15 minutes, so there's plenty of stuff to tweak here. But I do think that it looks like it could fly. As Sybixsus said, you should use some reference when creating a model, especially when you've never done a model like that before. Think about the basic shapes. Think about the purpose of the thing (to fly, so you don't want to make it look like a brick). Get some images. For this image I used an image of a Apache and a regular chopper, just so I'd know where the basic parts go and a rough sense of proportion. Good luck! |

| Cool napoleon Tweak it lets see some more dave |
| ||
| to be honest both look like c.... |

| ||
| now thats a helicopter... |
| ||
| Lovely |
| ||
| Choppers! :) Made for GFK:   Find some nice reference pics, and don't be afraid to sample some textures from photos, providing they aint copyrighted!!! Tom |
| ||
| Very nice work :D |
| ||
| "granada" your model is fine - you made it up off the top of your head - if you are already a good/competent modeller then it isn't as good as it could be - if you just knocked it up off the top of your head as a novice modeller then it is great. It's a good base model for you to work on and improve. I don't do my own models, so it is better than I could do. p.s. I think the propeller blades need to be longer. |
| ||
| Nice one, Tom! Very good texture too... |
| ||
| I was told by someone today that textures make the model,He was right thats realy cool tom. @puki, i've only just started modeling most things i make off the top of my head.I will have to do what tom said (Find some nice reference pics, and don't be afraid to sample some textures from photos, providing they aint copyrighted!!! ) dave |
| ||
 Hehe...Top that, Top Gun! |
| ||
| This is a tank i made,again using DeLeD. (high poly 2149)  dave |
| ||
| Hey "granada" that tank is really good - did you just knock that up or is that something you did a while back? |
| ||
| The chopper... eh. The tank. Great stuff for being a new modeller. |
| ||
| These models rule! |
