Its finished 😁 Thank you so much to every one who commented and helped me, I feel so happy that this is finally complete!

The suit is 97% complete! The only thing left to do is give him a belt pouch, then I can move on to either making the render mesh so he can be textured and animated, ORRRR sculpt Jim himself. I’m leaning towards Jim because sculpting is more fun, but we’ll see what happens. Lol

Still plucking away. My aim is to get the scene done by the end of February. Still need to do the door frame and I'm using some Megascan decals at the moment which I want to replace with my own. Then I have a bunch of things I want to tweak, some textures, lighting, etc.

Hello there! First time posting here, so no idea if I'm doing everything right or not.

Have been working on this scene for a while, and today was the day when I've finally finished the highpoly for the character. The next is retopo... oh joy!

The base for the pilot was generated in Metahuman, character posing and rendering done in UE5, the rest - pure ZBrush.

Lighting preview; For the final render I'll strive for the feel the version without PH mats has (the two shots in the middle);

"Cradle" in the cockpit; Most of it was made for subdivision (pity tessellation isn't a thing in UE5);

Pilot's life support wetsuit

@sacboi I am planning to do two sets of renders, the 'skinned' one will be a bit more stylised and is a bit of an opportunity to play around a little bit.

This is what i'm looking at for the main renders.

I have cooled it a little bit in post-process, and I've had to tweak the saturation a bit to compensate for the colour-space curse. I am wondering if this is too dark of a tone, and that maybe I should brighten things up - although the deep contrast is nice at the moment.

And for the skinned version. Background is very WIP at the moment, although I want to set a bombastic kind of tone.

Thanks!
