    Hello, could I make variants based on your AH-1Q for my fictional faction? There will be prob 4 variants (AH-1T, AH-1F, AH-1W, AH-1Z) and you will get credits on all of them.

    Could you possibly make mobile friendly helicopter replicas when you have the chance ? :3

    Blueprints are useful for creating overall shapes and correcting size, but they cannot represent detailed volume and curves. I felt that shape of canopy was awkward before, but I didn't say anything else because I know it's incredibly difficult to modeling the actual early-type AH-1's curved canopy on the SP. It will always be helpful to imagine a wireframe like THIS before making a model.

    @Brields95 Its not like I spent 2 weeks perfecting this thing and researching , +I used a blueprint , it did have these massive chords , as for the canopy , Its the part I spent most time on , ~12% of the time I spent on this , and its also made on Blueprints and pictures.

    @Brields95 did you check the “blueprints” on that blade chord? Looks correct to me, that variant of the Cobra had the Huey’s drivetrain, along with it’s wide chord main rotor blades.

    Blade chord thickness and canopy looks off. For the amount of parts you used those could easily be tweaked
