Quantumania: Kang Helmet Exploration

I had the honor of spending a lot of time on Kang the Conqueror for Antman and Wasp Quantumania. I tried to stay as true to the source material as possible.
My good friend Constantine Sekeris cracked Kang's final look. He nailed it in a very early pass, but the higher ups weren't sure for a while and were torn between his and mine for a while.
I did a lot of helmet exploration and blue face options on the character. Here are just a few options I created. It's great working in 3D. Its like investing in the process. One you build something you like playing with the materials is a great way to take the design further. I often find things in the rendering process that I did not intend and its a great place for happy accidents.
It's an incredible honor to not only work on this character but with the amazing team over at marvel visual development. This project was led by the insanely talented Andy Park. I am always so grateful when he brings me on board to play in the Marvel world.
