Been working on a new VS concept, thoughts? Kinda a version of the altitude for the VS. vsaltiude (View in 3D) (Note that I slightly adjusted the mouthpiece.)
The silhouette is too similar to the Trismegistus in my opinion. Sure, the details are significantly different, but do the "squint test" on both. Follow your original design a little closer. Make the mouth faction colored and put the the teal color (glow?) from the concept on there. It will still share the same general silhouette (unique silhouette should always be priority #1 in design, for future reference), but it'll be easier to tell the difference.
Alright, fixed some stuff, and added some detail mapping. I like the flow for the emmissives now. Kinda trying to decide what to do about the chin area, it feels a bit plain, but I don't want to make it busy.
The only criticism I have of this helmet at this point is that the forehead looks a little plain. If you were going for a cleaner design, then disregard the above.
