HERETIC | Halo Animation (Unreal Engine 5/UE5)

Worthy of neither pity, nor mercy.
---
Hi everyone, hopefully this gives a good laugh or two! Big kudos to Quixel for their gorgeous "Medieval Game Environment", which is free for anyone interested.
I rendered this to test animation blending and LiveLink facial motion capture (which is excruciating with Sangheili/Elite mandibles), but I think it came out well-enough to consider a proper release. This has been a journey. Problem after problem after problem, I swear. But alas! Getting closer to a regular-ish release schedule.

I'm guessing he's the elite version of Leonard church

maybe a bit like OG Church, but I fell off RvB when he became an AI

How did you develop those character assets?

A mix of Sketchfab and ripping myself.
