Development

I began this project by 3D scanning my face with Scandy. I later converted the 3D model I acquired from Scandy. to an FBX file by using Blender.

I imported this model to Unreal Engine to begin using it as a template for my MetaHuman character. Unreal created a mesh model based on my scan by using the MetaHuman plugin and I began tracing my facial details on it. Sadly my scan wasn't too great to begin with but I still wanted to move forward and decided to try fixing the mesh as I continued along.

Once I finished tracing my facial details on the mesh generated with the official MetaHuman plugin, I started working on it in the web application of MetaHuman creator. I edited the mesh to make it similar to myself as much as I can, and imported the final version to Unreal Engine to begin working on my renders.

I decided to work with the "City Subway Tunnel" and "City Subway Train Modular" asset packs from the market place. Firs step was to re-make all the post processing and lighting affects to achieve a much darker and gloomy tone. I used the same settings and volumes in the other packages in order to achieve a consistent style through my final renders.
