        Well managed to do a lot more"
        Landing Skids, missile launchers, started work on the main rotors, added the interior seating (14 rear / 4 cockpit) and a few other bits and bobs as well as cleaning up the geometry in places.

            Nice! Thanks Solo!
            Yeah there is a bulkhead door separating the compartments, its been open on all the renders so far but it is there here are some earlier shots:

            In the movie and art book these doors and dividing wall are nearly all glass, I wanted something more robust so added these heavier airlock type in.

                  Thanks, did a lot of changes seem to be going in circles every-time I make something new I hate something else, tear it down and start again!

                          Well finished the tail today not sire weather to add a NOTAR style tail or another ducted fan? Anyway here it is so far and also posted a wireframe.
                          Need to do the engines as well as finish the rotors and housings they are pretty devoid of details right now.

                            Some more shots, finished the engines. Used Max Grueters Fireman body and pilot head for the doorgunner both from the warehouse. Having problems exporting materials into kerk so made do with the default pack for now, somebody helped me out at another thread so ill see what I can do.
                            Once ive sussed out lights in kerk ill start to finish the inside of the model first and get some nice photoshop designed control panels in there as well as all the navigation and running lights on the outside.

                                Thnaks! Anyway here is the latest build of the model, ignore the textures it was just a kerk test but the model is accurate but with a lot of changes.
                                The interior alone is about 18MB and you cant see it with this setup 😞 once I figure out lighting in kerk il do some interior renders and cockpit/troop bay renders!!

                                        Would be really cool seeing a Vue animation, of it flying low over trees with the props spinning and all.
