WIP H3 EVA Helmet

Post by UPS »

Using this in an upcoming mod, I wanted to show you guys this and get critique. I'm trying to make this as good as I can with HPC and Misfit Model 3D. So far I think it's pretty nice, but I need to work on the back of his head a bit and make it a bit more rounded overall. I also want to try to get rid of the funny armor reflection on the cheek area since that looks horrible.

Please give me any suggestions you have.

Edit: I was thinking that it might be possible to reskin the faceplate texture so you don't have the funny reflection by the cheeks that looks so bad. That's possible, right?

Oh wow I was working on something really similar, but you beat me to it, and it looks great! 8)

Alright, I touched it up a bunch and here's how it looks now:

Also, if anyone can help me, I need a picture of the back of the helmet. I couldn't find any good ones on Google Image search.

Yes, that's possible.
This looks great. I shall like to see where it goes... 8)

Also, I'm reskinning and remodelling the marine helmet at the moment. Cripes, what a jolly old coincidence. :o
For anybody still wondering where FTD has gone, here it is.

That sounds cool, Philly, :D.

The EVA helmet is looking really nice. Needs moar shiny though. A cubemap swap should do it.
