I made a helicopter from Minecraft. i work with modeling assets or blockebench/blender modeling softwares, i made a helicopter because i like cool flying objects,

Supplies

  1. blockbench

3d modeling software

  1. bing image creator

ai art software

  1. game bar

recording software. build in the computer

Making the Base Model

as of making something i needed some concept art , i no pro at art creating but i needed something fast so i went to bing image creator to make some concept art, it took over 30-40 images to get these two for my concept art.


Starting the Base

i went wild with this and came up with the base design in such things. i started with a cube for the base and just fettled with it with the concept, then i got the base shape of what i wanted for it,it was fun.

Base of the Helicopter

i started with the frame then i moved on to the base of the helicopter, i colored coronated each segment of the helicopter. purple for the bottom of the copter, green for the frame, orange for the top, red for the tail rotor,

Helicopter Top

as of the blades for the copter i used green for and purple for the helicopters engines and blades. purple being the wings and overall engines of the helicopter. and green for the fore the blades.

Texture/lighting

I've been playing around with the textures and lighting of the helicopter. texturing is hard for a lot of people because it takes time and patients, especially sense it's 1024px what i did is

  1. find a simple texture you want for your project
  2. i used a 2d image you can use whatever
  3. all image types work png. jpg. wept. etc
  4. then import your texture to the software I'm using blockbench.
  5. the apply it to all assets
  6. resize and move the texture of the assets/cubes
  7. i used black texture for the windshield or and windscreens and transparencies
  8. a metal texture for the helicopter
  9. white texture for the engine rotor

i personally resize textures per piece/cube to make it fit and look better.

the background and the lighting is not to hard its a built in feature where you can pick where you are. i picked the sky for a helicopter

Animating/explaining

i didn't get video or a photo of the animating part.

animating this was a bit time consuming as it takes a little will.

i took the liberty and played around the animating part of it and made three different animations of it one of it being it to transform and the second one to transform failed both times. but remember to have fun when you make something or animate or texture something.

play around with the modeling as it can be really fun and you can end up with some pretty cool models.


i like to color my cubes/blocks as it can help a lot of the time and it helps keep track of witch parts are witch


i use a lot of plugins to help me out with this.

Finished Project

make it fly

the complete project. [something went wrong with the video a during the filming of it and it captured the background a little but i fuzzed it out] it adds a little more engine power
