One Small Step is a short animated film about an alien named Roswell attempting to take over Earth. Having earned an honours degree in Planetary Invasion for his award winning invasion of Kepler 22-B, Roswell sets his sights on Earth - his largest project to date.

Trying to work into getting reaaaal close to these mats.
Super x-Post but making tiling textures using the photogrammetry technique. It's not as robust as Substance but I feel it gets more natural results + we can use the highpoly data to make geometry we can get super close to.
157 photos taken with a Canon 600D, some of them were blurry and it'd be nice to redo it but I think we'll have to work with what we have, which is pretty great to be fair.
Does anyone know a better way of baking textures down? Maya loses a lot of the resolution when I bake the diffuse, should I up the sampling rate?
Decided to do some lighting tests for his initial scene. Spaceship is still being fiddled with but hopefully we can get some nice greebly bits for the lights to detail.
Tweaks for today - are the post effects a bit too over the top or do they work in its favour?
Little filler .gif of the engine pieces while everything else gets presentable.
Animated Version
Meet Roswell. Planetary invader, lover, fighter.
Alien.
Meet Earth, Roswell's target.
Ship needs texturing but we have it full rigged and animated. We've also received an updated rig so expect some animated shots in the future
In the meantime - have this:

Thanks guys, Roswell found a small object on the floor in his ship, maybe with it he can render himself properly at some point.
Roswell's ride was pimped today.
Here's the above shot in action.
Animated
Still a few tweaks but we're almost hitting completion on this shot!
"Hey there little guy, you look familiar."
Me and bear worked a little into Shot 08 today.
And here's a preview of Shot 9.
Conor's assets are coming together and I've taken them into the engine and lit them.
Animations are going in engine now too!
And something unrelated, was playing around with the third person blueprint.

It's been a while since I've updated this thread, but enjoy one of the newest shots from the film.
