Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

Hi Polycount community,
I recently got let go from ID Software,:( so I am going to post stuff here to update the old Portfolio. Here the fist piece I work on Xmas break.. just the highpoly. I Update the work I did in RAGE, Here's a link to my Portfolio noeserrano.blogspot.com

Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

After I got let go, I finish the lowpoly and textures in 3 days.

Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

Here's the textures...

Lord McMutton · Jan 2012

Ooh, that's lovely. What is it, exactly?

Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

I will be posting updates on the props I be working on..Here's the maps 2048x1024

Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

Marshal Banana: it's a modular piece that can be put in any corner....

Impala88 · Jan 2012

wow this is awesome, loving the bake.

Maybe get a bit of variation in the diffuse? some slight yellows and greens (very slight) or a moss/dust/random grunge mask?

YBourykina · Jan 2012

hey Noe! sorry to hear about id, definitely loving your new piece, though i do agree with Impala88, i would love to see a bit of moss growing on it or something else, like maybe a version where it was painted, but it's so old and worn that the paint has faded and chipped off?

can't wait to see more!

raul · Jan 2012

Alright! noe is back on polycount! looking forward to see your awesome work! b!! lol

That eagle looks pretty sweet, btw!

Envart · Jan 2012

Sorry to hear you got let go. That's some beautiful work right there. Really shows just how powerful normal maps can be.

dang87 · Jan 2012

I'd put that in my corner

Look forward to seeing some cool new stuffz!

Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

Impala88: thanks, I wanted the same color tones because I was going to make a large environment in UDK. I was going to make a lion version just like the eagle, but it will take some time right now I just need to bust a lot of props fast to get my portfolio Updated
YBourykina: thanks, I will go back to it and add more textures, just for you LOL
raul: I will try to get as good as you! B! LOL, thanks
Walrus: thanks, I know right, the power of the normals is like Spark say there "magical"..
dang87:LOL, thanks

Razgriz · Jan 2012

Sorry that you were a part of the Id housecleaning. Hopefully you have little trouble rebounding with your portfolio.

How much of this piece is Zbrushed, if any? This is great hard surface work.

Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

Here's the next Props I am thinking of doing for these month. I am Starting with the couch..

Noe_Serrano · Jan 2012

Razgriz: The Eagle is the only thing done in Zbrush the rest are all model in Modo

Noe_Serrano · Feb 2012

I been really busy with freelance work for a while.... but had some time to give the couch some hipoly love.

Noe_Serrano · Feb 2012

Here's the wires for the designs, the leather pieces were the only one'd done with zbrush..

Alberto Rdrgz · Feb 2012

really like how the leather came out, would you mind sharing some of that process?

pseudoBug · Feb 2012

That is one sexy couch.

Might I suggest making the seat a little more "inflated"? Right now it's very boxy. Seems like even in the ref there's a little more roundness to the seat surface. I could be wrong.

cholden · Feb 2012

intense high detail meshes. Enjoying this.

ZacD · Feb 2012

ohmyfuckinggodsexyasfloaters Reminds me I still need to try out Modo.

ScudzAlmighty · Feb 2012

that sure is a pretty couch.

Z3D · Feb 2012

Ouch!
Yours Lowpoly are so amazing , how you really get that? It's just by hand?

Saving everything... :poly121:

jeremiah_bigley · Feb 2012

Cool stuff man! Looking forward to the lowpoly!

-Em'- · Feb 2012

This last piece is amazing !
I would always be impressed by hipoly artists !

Noe_Serrano · Feb 2012

Alberto Rdrgz: My progress for the leather was all on the base mesh before I took it to Zbrush. Here's the couch base mesh before Zbrush, I spend about 4 hours in zbrush
pseudoBug: Done, I went back and made it a little more inflated

cholden: Thanks
ZacD: Thanks, I use 3dsmax before Modo and I don't think I can go back too max.
ScudzAlmighty: Thanks
Z3D: Thanks, Just some love on the highpoly. The eagle was the only thing done in 3dcoat and zbrush, the rest was all modo
jeremiah_bigley: Thanks Dude! lowpoly will be done after I finish more highpoly models.
-Em'-: Thanks
Here's the highpoly model before I took it into Zbrush...
