Community Event / Creation Concept Art - ED - Pilot Suit (On development)

[Moiker]

Hello,

I'm just a rookie in 3D modeling and rendering, but I really like the concept art of ED, as inspiration I began to working on this helmet prototype, pretty much the same concept that the developers created. However, I intend to make some modifications in the future, put more details, as the project progress, I intend to rebuild the entire CMDR suit.



1 - Part one: The Helmet Concept

# This Helmet model was based on some few images, due the lack of detailed references.

2 - Part two: The suit
2.1 Chest (work in progress)
Here I also started with a close approach to the actual in-game suit design, I intend to finish this base model soon, and then, start to make some few changes and discuss more in details.
Below you can see a preview of the work done so far. The main mesh model now is far from be completed, need to be polished and detailed. But right now I'm pretty happy with the results.

3 - Part three: The CMDR Design

Please leave comments and suggestions.

Looks nice, but lore-wise you are not wearing a helmet in your ship (the current one is probably just a placeholder until the character creator is implemented). You can see that when your canopy is breached, a REMLOK mask is automatically deployed.

Yes, but I think, at least in the original concept, all CMDR uses helmet inside their ships right ? I don't know If the DEVS will remove this idea/feature when the character creation come in the future. Anyway, thinking more "scientifically" it is very likely that pilots should wear a helmet in space, at least in small ships, when dogfighting.

Looks good.
I wish I where a rookie with your modeling skills.

Cool keep going, would love to see the final suit.
May turn it into an ED Pilot cosplay uniform I been wanting to build.

These are some cool models. Are you still working on this?

Might be useful for the animation crew.

I am not sure how practical a blue tint visor is but it looks great!
