High Octane Race Concept - Jetship

Model explorations of the exterior and interior of a jetplane for a short film concept I ended up not going with for my thesis film. The Film would have been titled 'High Octane', and would essentially be a Redline inspired over the top race, with silly antics like drifting a plane in the air through canyons, hence the steering wheel, gear stick, and pedals. Made over the course of a couple of 2 weeks in mid-2021.
The concept of the Jetplane was for it to be be well worn, heavily modified (retrofitted with a comfy leather chair for example), and not in the best state of repair; owned by a not-quite-hotshot space pilot.

The jet was modelled from reference of a Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird". The cockpit was modelled from a hodgepodge of reference images.
Modelled with Maya, and textured with Substance Painter. Rendered with Arnold.

Some details, the texture on the chair is low res as it is not intended to be viewed from this angle.

Some details, I wanted the cockpit to have a lived-in feel. I thought that old degraded stickers  strewn across the dashboard would help portray that
