If it's too big, can't you make it smaller? Or does it need to be this big for some reason? Are you using these for a game?
I'd also like to point out that the bottom 2 helicopter directions (up/down) are in an entirely different perspective than the first two. (left/right-facing) Instead of being seen at an angle, like the first two, showing both part of the side and the top; they're being seen completely from a bird's eye view. You'll realize these won't work together well in a game. I'm afraid this means you're going to have to do some redrawing depending on which perspective you actually want.
When you get to lighting & shading, you should think more carefully about where the light is coming from too. The random stripes you have right now are doing nothing to communicate the lighting.

as for the size nope it needs to be that exact size for a game maybe even longer but yah and as for the shading I know it kind of stinks since its kind of big and i wasnt used to shade large objects :P ill try to fix it and repost brb
