In Soviet Russia helicopter flies YOU!

Hey guys, starting on a new project. Working on Mi-24 Hind here. I'm going to make a full HP model first, bake it all later.
Here are some of my refs:




Here's what I got so far. Just working out general shapes, scale and edgeloops. If you see something wrong, let me know :P

Make sure you model a specific version. The top reference is an F and the bottom two are D's with the chin turret and different optic sensors. Also the profile on your stub wings look way too thin.

Thanks Evil!
Yeah i should def focus more on that. I have a 1:72 miniature which is D with a turret (last ref). Although I still wish to add those cool vent-like things behind the wings on the first ref.

Evil Flower

Those are not vents - they're chaff/flare launchers.

Better view here:
