Very nice model, love your work, what kinda shader do you use in the max viewport? I like it
The max viewport shots are nitrous in realistic mode with AO and shadows and skylight-as-ambient all enabled. That along with a 3-point light setup (plus a skylight) provides the right environment.
For materials I use blend materials, where the A material visually matches the target, and the B material is a solid color for baking material masks.
You can set the blend materials to 100% blend, and it'll bake the B material but display the A material. This is probably a bug with the viewport but it's actually very helpful.

the edge wear is mostly a procedural mask, derived from an object space normal map (using the find edges filter) and then multiplied with AO and a grunge texture.
Amazing work yet again. I didn't see this in the high poly and don't see any shadows in the render, you've got strong black part. Showing in the wires pic too. Maybe from the AO?

lol yeah. I hope xnormal guy fixes that bug one day, it only happens with cavity maps. I almost never float shit anymore specifically because of that.
