Job offers / [PAID] Fighting Game Sprites for a Card Game
« on: June 08, 2013, 12:04:13 am »
This job was posted here a few days ago and has now been reworked. Our company needs an artist to "sprite over" 90-100 illustrations to create fighting game sprites in the style of Street Fighter III. Our illustrator will provide line sketches of the following types of prompts:
1. The character should be punching with his right fist.
2. The character should be punching with his right fist forcefully, showing moderate strain on his face.
3. The character should be delivering a wild hook punch
4. The character should be kicking with his right leg.
5. The character should be kicking with his right leg forcefully, showing moderate strain on his face.
6. The character should be delivering a straight kick, almost as if he were aiming for someone’s chest intending to knock them straight backward or into a wall/through a window/etc. He should have his arms back slightly to steady himself and an angry look on his face.
7. Special Attack 1: Character should be drinking from a flask
8. Special Attack 2: Character should be shooting a gun.
There are currently a total of 89 prompts that our illustrator is working on. We may go up to 100. The idea is to follow the method laid out in this article (or your own method as long as it arrives at the same end) to "sprite over" our illustrator's line sketches:

Here's a finished illustration from the artist of one of the characters. This is not representative of what the sprite artist will be working with--this image, rather, will appear in the instruction manual. The perspective will be adjusted to mimic a 2D fighting game, and the sprite artist will be expected to "sprite over" the image to make it look like it came out of a console fighting game. We are looking for highly experienced spriters, ideally with previous experience on published work, but we will review all submissions.
Just to recap the work:
Artist is to "sprite over" 89 key frames measuring approximately 110x110 pixels created by another illustrator; the spriter will effectively act as a colorist/inker for this project. The image count may go up, but is very unlikely to exceed 100 images. The work must be finished by July 29th, the applicant must be willing to provide a sample prior to starting work (and the sample will remain the property of the artist unless they are contracted for the whole project). The applicant must be willing to sign an agreement assigning copyright over to the company. Please send a per image bid over private message if you are interested in the job; please also send a resume and/or a portfolio.
