I am an indie developer using the Unreal Development Kit to make a commercial version of my mod Prometheus, which won 4th place in the Make Something Unreal Contest grand finals. Right now I'm the only team member (I do the programming and design) and I'm hiring contractors for the art and animation.
I'm looking for a character artist who has experience with the Unreal Engine to make 4 rigged models. Since the money is coming out of my pocket, each character will be a separate contract as I get the money to afford them.
I would prefer a candidate who also does character concept art. I have a general idea of what I want the characters to look like as well as the dialogue written and recorded by the voice actors, but at the moment I have no concept art for them. I am however making similar posts looking for concept artists elsewhere, so please get in touch with me even if you don't do concept art.
The project is a FPS puzzle game where you have to cooperate with your past and future selves to get through the levels. There's a video of the old mod version here (Ignore the old environment art, it's not necessarily indicative of the style I'm going for):

I can be reached at dj_rachel_c at yahoo dot com. Please include a link to your portfolio and your going rate for character modeling (per model or per hour with an estimate of the number of hours). Thank you for your time!
