Apache Helicopter AH-64 CG Model - Maya, Zbrush

This model is available for download: http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/548107

This is the updated version of the helicopter model I made for my Battlefield 3 fan trailer. I've done some more modelling and updated the textures and normal maps.

It was modelled in Maya and then detailed and textured using Zbrush and Photoshop. Most of the materials are standard Lambert shaders, the others such as the glass, rubber and shiny metals are standard Mental Ray presets (mia_material_x).

hey, how did you manage to render daytime motion  in maya

@pim7777 in the render options for mental ray under the indirect lighting tab you can add a physical sun and sky to the scene.

Awesome model! It would be nice if the .OBJ file was made of more than one piece though so the rotors could be moved :)

@ReconSniperGuy Im fairly new to blender as well, some I'm also figuring stuff out as i go ;)

[lucasB823]

@ReconSniperGuy This isn't my video =P. But i know how to do it, its a little bit difficult though. You have to track the camera. There are several ways to do this. If you have a PC you could use the free Voodoo camera tracker (google, "voodoo camera tracking"). Another, more elegant alternative is to download blender 2.6 Tomato Branch, this is a build of blender that is not officially released yet. It has a built in camera tracker. But mostly your on your own. Look up some tutorials.
