What We Need

We are looking for a Character Concept Artist to create realistic/fantastical character designs for Skyrim and our unannounced fantasy IP.

Our ideal candidate has:

  • A portfolio containing their best and latest work; detailing their character design process.
  • Experience drawing clothed humans and monsters.
  • Experience making character model sheets for 3D modelers.
  • Professional English proficiency, for communication with team members across the world.
  • No use of generative AI in any aspect of their work.

 

What You’ll Do

  • You will be provided with a detailed brief and freelancer agreement containing the exact deliverables for all your assignments. Clear milestones with no surprises for anyone.
  • Collaborate with our Creative Director and other artists / designers to realize the provided brief, with flexibility to give it your own spin.

 

Nice to have:

  • A background or interest in fashion is a plus.
  • Life drawing experience is a plus.

 

We are looking for people we can work with in the long-term, as we believe making games is about investing in people. Building a studio takes time and the right mix of people, so we are taking things slowly for now.

People from all skill levels are welcome to apply, as experience does not always reflect whether we believe you’re the right person for the job.
