For the high poly model I plan to make the majority of the shape in Maya, and then add the more organic elements in ZBrush (e.g., the bullet hole on the helmet, the folds in the clothing).
Below is the first 'iteration' I have created. It is the basic shape of the helmet. The proportions are still slightly inaccurate, there is no detail on the side panels and no smoothing.
Below is a slightly improved version. The dome of the helmet is a more accurate shape, and the whole model has been subdivided and smoothed. The side panels and antenna* are still only placeholder. The image was rendered with Mental Ray and has a three-point lighting setup.

Below is the final version of the helmet I will continue to sculpt in ZBrush.

*It's actually an 'External Targeting Rangefinder'. Since that's a lengthy term and most people mistake it for an antenna, I will simply refer to it as the 'antenna' for the purposes of this blog.
