This is wonderful!. If you dont mind, how did you approach the small bevels? Was it cycles (bevel normals) baked and imported to substance painter? And also how long this kind of quality work takes? Thank you, I am trying to level up my work.

It was a mix of the bevel modifier and manual bevels, for the base I used 2x sub div simple and 2x catmull clark. Just mix and match, see what works best where.

It was a regular bake in painter, I separated meshes by names.

The high poly took me 4-5 days and the lowpoly and texturing took me another whole week. To be fair I rushed quite a few parts because I had to meet deadlines. (This is a university assignment.)

I foresee a high pass mark with this one because your texture bakes are flawless especially that normal map - my salutations :+1:
