Hard Surfaces
Vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft, and heavy machinery built with the structural accuracy and material quality AAA productions demand.
Overview
Complex mechanical assets require a different level of structural discipline. XQUBE builds vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft, and industrial machinery with panel-level accuracy, realistic material breakdown, and full LOD chains.
We handle both single hero vehicles and full vehicle libraries at scale — ready for hero placement or background dressing.
Working Process
1
Blueprint & Reference
Technical drawings, photo reference, and style guides agreed before modelling begins.
2
High Poly Construction
Mechanically accurate high poly built components by components. Hard surface workflow in ZBrush, Maya, or 3ds Max.
3
Low Poly & LODs
Game-ready topology built for your poly budget. Full LOD chain from hero to distant.
4
UV Layout
UVs laid out for maximum texel density across primary and visible surfaces.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
Questions about Hard Surfaces
Yes — all three. Concept art, orthographic technical drawings, manufacturer spec sheets, or photo reference. The more reference you provide the less iteration. If reference is incomplete we'll identify gaps before production starts.
Hero vehicles get the full high-poly-to-low-poly pipeline with full PBR texture sets, multiple LODs, and damage variants. Background vehicles are produced at a lower poly budget with shared material instances to keep memory footprint manageable. Both can run in parallel.
Yes. Damage states, destruction variants, and modular component breakdowns are part of our hard surface pipeline. Scope them in your brief and they're produced alongside the base asset — not as a separate engagement.
Yes. We've produced civilian automotive assets for BMW and INDG and military assets across multiple client engagements. Material accuracy — paint, metal, glass, rubber — is treated differently for each category and referenced against real-world data.
We reference manufacturer data, technical documentation, and real-world photography at the blocking stage. A structural review is built into the pipeline before high-poly sculpting begins — catching proportion or accuracy issues early rather than after hours of detail work.
