Motorcycle Stunt Freestyle Tech Demo Needs Bike Model
Hello!
My name is Matt Webb. I am a project lead of a total conversion for the Source engine called SHIFT (http://www.moddb.com/mods/shift) It is an extensive creative racing game using Half-Life 2. Over the years of development, We have worked with modelers like Fabelar, Laurens Corijn, Robert Fletcher, and Onno van Braam. When I approached Robert with my need for another modeler, he reccomended I come here and ask.
I recently had a run in with Josh Borne who is a pro stunt freestyle rider for Scorpion and we got to talking about developing a motorcycle game. Since the physics are already in the game, it would just be a matter of testing and developing. In order to do this, we would need a modeler who is available to create the custom bike from scratch (MANY reference images will be supplied). Without the custom bike model, we will have to use a non-final place holder and when testing is done, we will have to go back and change a lot of the code when the new model is in (one of the problems with Source). This being said, we are a small team with an amazingly reliable coder and we are not just a bunch of guys with more content than we know what to do with. Gameplay first, content second.

The only compensation I can offer at this moment is a promise of a good portfolio piece as well as small monetary compensation at the completion of the project.
This tech demo is intended to be sent and presented to Hyosung and other motorcycle sponsors that Borne has contacts with.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Details would be provided on a case by case basis on how quickly an artist progresses.
Also, just a reminder that this IS a PAID job, just not the usual high paying jobs artists come to expect.
I do in fact like your demo real.
Are you capable of making High poly, Low poly, with baked normals and materials?
im a jobless graduate at the moment so i have all the time in world
im doing some environment work to enhance my portfolio
so im ready when you are:)
send me a pm whenever u can im excited about this project
