Bonus! Gooey eye test

Bonus bonus! Quick flight suit sculpt I did for some of the background pilots in the other ships.
Made to roughly match the suit worn by  our actor who was fighting on the same side as these pilots.

The character I worked on for my class's 2019 capstone film 'Last Stand' at AIE. Sparks' head was used as a head replacement and comped over our actor, who provided facial motion capture for the performance.
I did the sculpt, materials and shader for the head, and shader for the groom.
