Hello! I'm an independent game developer and composer, currently developing, a turn-based tactical RPG set in an alternate Cold War, combining military history with dark fantasy. I'm looking for an artist to create full-body illustrations for the game's 12 playable characters. I'd like to commission them individually, starting with one character and potentially establishing a long-term working relationship. The visual style I'm looking for is anime-inspired, but not entirely conventional anime. My main reference is Operation Darkness, and I'm particularly interested in its more mature, gritty character designs, with distinctive faces, realistic military uniforms and equipment, and a dark fantasy atmosphere. PLEASE before posting, check this link showing the type of arstyle i'm looking for: https://www.tumblr.com/notablegamebox/39792264761/this-is-art-by-yoshio-sugiura-for-operation My budget is approximately $100–200 per character. I'm open to adjusting the level of detail and scope to fit this budget. I plan to commission characters individually rather than all at once, with the possibility of further commissions if the collaboration goes well. How to apply If you're interested, please share: Your portfolio, especially examples of character designs Your rate for a full-body character illustration.   submitted by   /u/leccomposer [link]   [comments]
