Rover - XM-431

Personal Project created in late 2024/ early 2025.

I created this to challenge myself with a modeling goal, with a cinematic as my end result. I ended up doing lots of research on the history or Moon/Mars rovers deployed by various nations/companies. Utilizing design features from many real-world rovers, I created my own digital version, the XM-431. In due time, I hope to create more scenes for this Rover to explore, maybe even an interactive level within Unreal Engine.

Rover was modeled in Cinema4D. Texturing/UV Work completed in Substance Painter 3D. Animations were created in Cinema 4D using Octane Render, as well as Adobe After Effects.
