I got this idea for a worn and tired space traveler after reading "the tales for Pirx the pilot" by classic sci-fi writer Stanislaw Lem. The shape of the helmet is inspired by "Commander Oddball" from "Revenge of the Sith". The face is based on my own face and I used Modos sculpting tools for the first time to tweak the mesh (for example pushing in the cheeks and pulling down the eye lids). I've textured the face using my own "skin". Don't worry, I'm not that pale and I don't have those dark areas under my eyes.

Modeled and rendered in MODO

WoW!! I've always admired the folks who can render such things as this with such clarity, realism and skill. Thanks for sharing your work on dA for us to view it. :)

Were you formally trained how to do this? Is it something that could be learned?

Awesome; I have the Swedish translation of the first Pirx collection (and a few other books by Lem). :)

Awesome picture, love the clone pilot helmet. Although he's a little pale, kinda creepy :o but other than that it looks amazing!

Have you thought of putting him in a starfighter cockpit?
