Currently, Blue Comet Games is searching for a few good environmental artists to assist in our game, currently titled Acro Storm.
Acro Storm is a high speed weapons racer, similar in spirit to games such as WipEout, Extreme G Racing, and F-Zero (although the last has no weapons, it's certainly fast). Featuring a cast of characters with expressive and individual personalities, we intend to have a game that entices with both fun gameplay and narrative.
This is volunteer based- there's no payment involved as of now.
The characters in question are generally rather expressive and are vocal. The art style is more cel-shaded/toonist than anything else- in particular to be akin more to Ratchet and Clank/Jak and Daxter sort of fare.
Here's a bit of a WIP (really more of just a physics test and such.

Moreso, here's some pieces of concept art for some of the characters:

I am interested in creating a character for you. possibly doing some animation too. Is this project still ongoing?
I could do with the practice and work for my folio. I need to get back into the swing a things after a bit of time out.
I like the concepts you have for the racers. I think they need tweaking a bit. I have just had a go on the demo you have, and travelling at those speeds I think you could need to give them some head protection or eye wear at the least!! and possibly some other accessories to add to there character and silhouette.
any way PM me if your interested. I would be keen to start working ASAP.
Cheers
