[paid] Artist for medieval iOS game

[luxiou]

Hi everyone,

I'm an indie iOS developer working on a medieval/fantasy themed simulation game. It's a cross between a city-builder (think SimTower/SimCastle) and a party-based fighting game (think Ogre Battle/Final Fantasy Tactics). I'm looking for an artist (or 2) to create the bulk of the following game assets over the next 3 months:

- 2D images of structure interiors (stables, archery ranges, potion shops, etc)
- 2D sprite animations of units walking around and fighting (knights, mages, peasants, etc)
- 2D icons / UI elements
- 2D panoramic backgrounds

The majority of the game design / written art direction is complete and you'd be able to start right away. It would be preferable but not necessary for you to reside in the US. Bonus points if you are in the CA Bay area!

Please respond/drop me a note if you have experience with at least 2 of the above categories and have significant availability in the near future (this project will likely need to be your primary focus for a few months). Links to past projects/portfolio work would be great.

Payment can be done in installments, via either PayPal, direct wire deposit, or mailed check.

A little about me -

My studio has been making indie iOS games for a few years now, and our previous title VegasTowers HD (http://bit.ly/rNwi67) has been ranked as high as #3 in the iTunes AppStore. Over 2 million people have installed and played it - if we work together your art will be seen and appreciated by a wide audience, and you'll more than likely catch a complete stranger playing your game at some point

I'm looking to build my portfolio with some paid work. Here's my current portfolio and I'd love to work with your company to make an awesome game! I love animating and would certainly do everything in my power to study and work in the style you deem fit for you game. You can easily get ahold of me by e-mailing me at [e-mail]. I live in the Colorado area, but I'm looking to move to the CA Bay Area with my uncle Neil Flynn (look em up! awesomeness runs in the family) and having work with a company would most definitely give me a good reason to move. I'd also hope that if we work well together we could work on future projects together. My work isn't exemplary by any means, but my tenacity and passion for gaming is incomparable and I'll do what I can to get ahead in a company such as your own. :D Here's a link to my Deviant Art (unprofessional I know) but it's what I have at the moment.
