Hermeus
Hermeus is a company developing hypersonic planes. We created 3D models with custom textures, a set of animations for their Quarterhorse, Darkhorse, and Halcyon planes, and a selection of still renders in different environments. Explore the project below, and check out our documentary on Hermeus to take a peek behind the curtain at Hermeus' factory.

Hermeus provided their existing CAD models of each plane. From here we began our work to ensure the models were built to allow flexibility in texturing and design in later stages.
We remade the Quarterhorse, Darkhorse, and Halcyon aircraft from scratch using subdivision surface modeling.

With the underlying geometry modeled correctly, we began texturing each plane. Adding logos, panels, flags, and even rivets to the model.
The modularity of this workflow allowed us to easily change colors, placement, and other properties to the clients specifications.

This process actually begins during the modeling stage, where we modeled the plane's control surfaces to allow them to move.
