I've been working on this chopper for a while already, rebuilding it from scratch from a earlier version that i didnt like a bit.

I created the fuselage by starting out with a single plane extruding onward from that. Since im not really fond/used to high poly box modeling generaly used in FS.

Hope you guys like it, i included serval renders because im testing out what works and doesnt work with the rendering options in G-max. Since sometimes it just renders black.

That will probably the base paint, since im Dutch myself .

I got inspired to model this when i saw a live training from the navy dropping down marines on abandoned buildings, fortunately for me was i standing only 5/8 metres from the Landing zone for this heli 8).

Yup, a shame they closed Valkenburg, il miss the orions flying overhead.

Here's an update:

Voorhout.

Started shaping up the cabin, you can see the details in the background.

Thanks, here is a ingame shot, animations still bugged, even though i animated the prop.

Haha, well i consider myself far from the best.

Yes, its intriguing, i couldnt believe myself that this could actualy work. Until a year ago i learned that this technique is used by car modeling, i learned it myself and decided that i needed to model a car. Modeled a renault laguna and a Ford Sierra with this technique. Very suited for Highpoly modeling.

I cant really get around starting out with a cylinder and modeling onward from that by pushing verts around. Its just not my style. Thats the reason i decided to use this, no matter what people may think of it.

Its actualy quite easy to create a extra plane, since im G-max, you can select a edge, hold shift, and drag onwards, and there is your new plane! Now with target weld move it in the mesh and there is your polygon. Really easy and effective.

Look`s very gooooooood!!! I love the Lynx!!

Added windows, still need to tweak them a bit.
