I think the front half looks good, it's just that the back half looks oversized compared to other attack helicopters since it looks like it literally uses the Z-20 tail rather than a bespoke design like most attack helicopters. This is practical since it eases logistics but comes at an aesthetic cost.

1. The real problem with the Z-10 basic model is that the body is overweight.

2. Since the first flight of 10 ton class helicopter Z-20 (equipped with domestically produced engines WZ-10) in 2013, why need to worry about the engine of heavy attack helicopter?

Just a simple comparison between Z20 and Z21 so that we can have a feel roughly on the size of Z21. Note that they are not presented in the same scale and not in the same directional orientation, there might be around 10% difference in length and height in the images.
