"..Rogue units were not uncommon after the first japanese AI war.."
I was looking forward to create a character with a strong background. Influenced by one of the most iconic features of the old japanese culture, I decided to try my hand and spice my usual robotic sci-fi stuff with few samurai themed addons. And I'm pleased with the result. As a seller in various marketplaces, I wanted to leverage the power of Unreal Engine to make a semi-modular character. This way, the user can configure the addons and color schemes to customize the look and feel. And of course, you get the "vanilla" version of this character, with zero "cultural" bias, so it can fit on any sci-fi themed project.

On a technical side, I've tried few new things as I do on all my previous works. This time I used marmoset toolbag for the bakes, and I'm really suprised with the quality and features of the baker. Now it has a permanent slot on my toolkit.

The workflow is nothing new: 95% subd modeling, bake to low poly, texturing and rigging to Epic skeleton for a seamless integration with Unreal Engine. Kudos to undo speed that got a nice bump performance wise in Blender.

If you want to take a look at the asset, feel free to check my unreal engine seller profile page here:
