the helicopter was poor, but nice work.
That was pretty good CGI, but (no offence meant, but possibly taken) the helicopter sucked. But other than that, it was really cool!

The water looked a little fake and the lighting on the helicopter made it look a little unrealistic, but if you keep working and researching you'll slowly improve.

Yeah the heli. doesn't look good because i built it in mlcad. took me about 4 hours to make.
Hate to say it, but I hated the helicopter design and it looked really fake and unrealistic. Did you bother to adjust the settings in the Shading panel?
If you're using MLCAD, surely there's more parts than bricks and plates you can use. How about slopes, technic pieces, etc.

Well... I don't know. I haven't been using the software too often so i don't really know everything about it.

no. I just made the ocean and then i animated the helicopter didn't really bother with settings. But this is just a test i'm remaking this scene when i make my new film.

Pretty much that. I'm fairly sure refrigerators do not fly. At least not here in America.
May I ask you:
Which program is that? (looks like Carrara 6.0)
and how did you made spinning the blades without doing it manually? (with some kind of expression that it keeps spinning?)
In blender you can use inverse kinematics and edit the ease in, ease out in the IPO curve editor so that it goes at a steady pace on and on.

I used Blender 3D. I made the blades spin by using the rotating tool and then going into the animation stage where i move the frame forward and then move the blade forward and i repeat this sequence until i have an animation with the blades moving.
