[PAID] 3D animator needed to create a set of sword attack animations.

I need an animator to help my prototype feel less janky. At the moment I'm using an animation asset (GhostSamurai_Bundle) but it doesn't fit what I want, so I would like to hire someone who can create these animations for me.

The prototype has been built in Unreal Engine 5 so ideally the finished animations should be created with that in mind.

Essentially I'm recreating the sword attacks from Metal Gear Solid 2.

The weapon used by the player is a bit bulkier than the HF Blade. The game is set in a medieval fantasy world like Zelda or Lord of the Rings.


Needed animations;

  1. Slash Left
  2. Slash Right
  3. Slash Up
  4. Slash Down
  5. Spin attack
  6. Lunge
  7. Parry/Block
  8. Sword Lock
  9. Finisher

I have details for each animation and more example videos. I will happily storyboard or act out the animation if it will help!

Contact me here on Polycount if you are interested, with a link to your show reel and ideally a rough estimate for cost.

Thanks for reading.
