The upper spine connector is difficult to get to look correct. Finally nailed it!
Next up: Create moulds to cast the pictured spine parts in fiberglass/carbonfiber and resin. I want to test the complex surfaces on these prior to the main head parts.

Working a new neck & spine. Going for (near) full mobility. Once the head->spine transition is finished I will move on to more detailed poly modelling to ensure the head pieces fits together properly prior to mould printing.

#RoboSergalProject head modelling moving forward. Shown is before (top) and after (bottom) slight profile change, going with the bottom one. Jaw underside is roughed out. Next up is the back of the head, neck and modifications on the groove from the eyes to the back of the head.
Testing various ideas for the #RoboSergalProject head in #Zbrush. I am starting to settle in on a design I like!
The new head will cover less of the wearers face for better dimensioning the suit body. Thanks to @SunnyMaolo for doing a writeup on this a while back! (13.10.2020)
After an unknown amount of tiny fixes, the UDIMs are okay on this #Sergal and the model good to go! For this fine first day of April, have a rough color WIP!
Added details on the retopoed #Sergal mesh for the lips, nostrils, hand- and feetpaws (main body mesh), the teeth and tongue.
The finer details from the high-res mesh will be baked into the textures of a more animation friendly lower resolution mesh.

Ready for texturing! https://t.co/p48IAO6L4O
The retopoed mesh is very smooth when the subdivision count is increased. Hence I import it back into Zbrush, project the retopoed mesh subdivided to ~50k vertices on the original mesh. Then I fix some details by hand. Retopo (left), Retopo + project (right), at 800k verts. https://t.co/Ko1flOkALy
A little in-session drawing of our friendly neighbourhood illithid collaboration partner wearing our GMs hat for that session. (yes, tadpole shape is not 5e canon)

@RockkSergal From my own pieces it has to be these two.
If I were to pick from what I've seen online from other artists, I would have a tough time choosing! There's so much good sergal art both in this thread and out there!
