[WIP] 2026 Reallusion 3D Character Contest - Victor Gage - Ehsan Taheri [ET]

Hello everyone.

I’m thankful that I got another chance taking part in a Reallusion contest.

I’ve had the idea of a steampunk character in my mind, so I found this contest would be a nice opportunity to make it come alive.

His name is Victor Gage, he is a steampunk era mechanic who had to fight in a war and became injured. Now after the war, he is facing a government order to hunt him down because they found proof that Victor saved an enemy soldier during the war.

He uses a pressure measuring device on his body to monitor the health of his lungs since he had an injury. Since I had him in mind as a videogame character, the pressure measuring system on his back can help to show his health by changing color [from blue to orange and red].

Also there are the breathing flowers which he has to use to keep breathing easily. [ or alternatively the flowers might be used to avoid the toxic air of the world he lives in ]

He uses a prosthetic hand (more like a glove since he has his real hand) that gives him various tools to work with, like a magnifying system, a pressure measuring system so he can measure steam pressure of different devices, etc.

I made the first draft of the concept using AI and I worked upon it using Photoshop to get the details right.

Here are the main concepts and some other ideas that led to the current concept. Things might be changing but I think it’s a good base for the start.

I’m trying to create some conepts from different parts of the character, I like to work on some of the detailed parts like the guantlet seperatly and then I bring it to the character. Here I came up with some basic design for the guantlet and then I used AI to get a more life-like image with materials on it. Then photobashed and photoshped it for the details.
