Hello All,
I run a small mobile game studio based in Halifax, Nova Scotia (note: this position is remote). And we are looking to contract some environment, character and prop 2d art out to an artist. We are NOT looking for an art "farm", and we will only consider overseas if they have a provable record and are cost efficient. I have detailed some requirements as to the style and genre.
Art Style will need to be entirely hand painted, 2d art. The style should be close to the normal hand painted texture that is seen in games like WoW, BLC, Diablo, etc as well as mobile games like Fieldrunners, etc. Please note, you should have an excellent organic as well as structure textural ability.
All character animations will need to be in image format with slight variations (walking may be 15 different images with half a millimeter leg movements, for example). Characters will need to be vector and hand painted as well, not pixel.
Environments will be a single large (600x400 for example (this is not a size :P but they will not be larger then 1000x1000 so detail will need to be small but strong)) painted image and may need to be done in different sizes, this will be discussed when the time comes.
Game Genre will be most RTS but may include a TD sort of game.
We are looking for someone we can use for not only one project, perhaps even two people if we find one suitable for characters and one suitable for environments. But ultimately we are looking for a single individual.
That being said if you are interested in this position please fill out the following form,
