Looks good, but I think the angle is a little to high, if you know what I mean. Like, it should be tilted downwards towards the ground more. It looks like it should always be gaining altitude.

Things I noticed:
1. Semi-blocky, needs a higher polly count (unless they're there and just not used, if so it needs more detail)
2. it doesn't have any bomb launching parts on it...how did you intend on it dropping bombs, through the windshield?
3. it would probably be better if you showd it to us from a view similar to that in SC.
P.S. I already have a helicopter I was working on that I never finished, want me to attach it for you?
It has a bunch of the tail made, along with the poles and stuff below it for landing, but not the main part.

@voy: thx!
@terrain: Yeh i thought that too..... ill remember to add more detail next time so it aint so blocky (it was annoying when i had so little amount of vertexes to edit the curves), and ok, ill have a look at ur helicopter
im looking for more ideas too.

Here it is.
[attachmentid=20901]
Idea: you could try making a type of unit that stays burrowed, then jumps out and attacks when a unit comes within striking-distance of it.
ADDITION: tell me if the helicopter file's messed up or if I compiled the wrong file...I highly doubt zipping it could change it from 155kb to 16.88kb...

Oh, ok! (although machines are easier; moddelling and skinning, but ill try an organic creature )
Ty for helicopter.... but sorry, i wont be using it..... yet......
theres way too much to get a quick skin done, it would take me about a whole week to skin it properly. but i might use it later.

when i discover how to render gmax files to look much better, i can produce much higher quality work.
hmm... i think i should start on the APC.
n e 1 agree?

ya its really easy! i think the hardest/annoying part of it would be the UVW Unwrapping part. (and sometimes the skinning - depends on what your trying to achieve)
anyway, do you think i should write a tutorial specifically on how to make stuff like this in gmax?

Yeah, actually that would be really helpful.

1. use yafray and the other tools that come with it. (I forgot the website, but you can look in Nirvana's tutorial for it.)
2. sure, but first you need to tell me what a APC is.

1. i already use yafray, im talking about how to make the actual render it produces look a lot better. and the site is: http://kupio.lunarpages.com/~tru7h02/halo/gmax_render/

Yeah, Yafray's renders do look kind of crappy. It works best if you get one with generally the right lighting, make it indexed WTIHOUT DITHERING and then change the colors around to what you want. Then, do whatever to patch it up. That's what works best for me.

or u can use global lighting, have a single target light and have multiplyer as 1.0.

Maybe if you added a jet overlay coming out of them, it would look better.
