Finally called this done! Been working on it on/ off since last year on my free time. It's definitely a challanging project especially character is not my typical works, but always has an interest on the back of my mind.

Through this project I explored character blockout, sculpting, retopo, rigging, pose, lighting and rendering a character all within Blender, texture was done in Painter. Face map using texture projected from Texturing.xyz with further details added in Painter. For technical detail; Body Suit [3x 4k map], Backpack [1x 2k map], Head [1x 4k map], Spear [1x 4k map]. All rendered in Cycles with some post works in Affinity Photo.

QR code added to each of the images, hopefully will make it easier for someone finding a source back to my page.
And also QR code looks cooler then text, so..
