Living in the 3d mines (Syron model WIP)

Sorry for the lack of any major updates for a little bit, brainstorming some smaller pieces but nothing is coalescing just yet. That said, I've decided to start my long-term goal of 3d modeling. As someone who works full-time as a game artist now, I've picked up a considerable amount of new skills that (for some reason) i have yet to try with my own ideas. Maybe it was burnout, not sure.
I decided to start character modeling with the goal of rigging and animating (and making playable) the final result, which I've done quite a bit of smaller assets and items. Why not start with the OG. This model is to serve as the basis for me learning the new skill with the ability to animate him in a short 15s loop with some of the style I used to be more open with.
It's very challenging. Anyway, here's where I am right now. full 3d with some well retopo'd regions and some materials. I'm very aware i picked something hard to start with, but I like challenge and I think I can do it.
I'm starting the jacket today (oh boy). Wish me luck.
Eventually I plan to make this model available here, if i can. I know it's a long way off from rigged and animated for VRchat, but I see that as an eventual result if I do this right. This is something I've always wanted to do, so I appreciate you all being supportive and patient as I pick up some new tricks to make some hopefully more exciting work in the long term.
