I am the head developer at Optimal, a small independent game developer working on our first project Omega Squadron, a robot-smashing 2D side-scroller. We are looking to publish to Google's Android Marketplace in two months.  We are in need of sprite artists to create sprites for robot characters and adversaries.  Although we do not have any experience requirement we will review your portfolio before making any decisions.  We are offering $50/hr for professional work or $15/hr for student work.  Please contact us at willernsberger@gmail.com.
This is not a local position.  We would prefer to do business via Skype, phone, or email.
