[WIP] Salada type helmet

Hi everyone, I think I have made a high-poly, and tomorrow I will be doing a damage pass in zbrush, I am familiar with the interface but have not sculpted metal before so I would like to know how you approach this task.

Thank you.

Can you show your references? It would help to see what kind of damage you are aiming for.

I've done some tests and I think I can do it better. Need to look closer at reference, reduce the overall noise, add more asymmetry and edge damage.

Looks good so far. I would suggest adding a dirt map, with more dirt in the crevices. A Curvature map can really help with this.

I think I did better on my second try.

Nice. I think it would help a lot to add the dark grime like shown in the photo
