Posted last month

Worldwide

Summary

Looking for 2D artist to compliment existing ongoing work for side battler art / animations in Dragonbones (v 5.6) for a retro fantasy crpg. Can theoretically import from Spine 3.x, but this is untested for us as of yet. See attached for current art style and existing battlers. First character needed is a cute fluffy house cat (a familiar that can be obtained later) with a total of 11 animations / poses. Animations shouldn't be more than a second, and the general list for each character is as follows: Attack A Attack B Damage (as in being hit) Defeat (still pose) Evade (just a still pose is fine) Guard Idle Ready Skill / Cast (Depending on actual character) Victory Weak Idle (i.e. severely injured, distressed, etc) Assuming things work out, will be looking at the very least to do the same for several more characters to replace existing temp art. As we’re gearing up for a demo for our pitch deck, being able to finish sooner is better, but better done well than fast. Thanks in advance for your interest, and feel free to ask questions. Please include estimated turn around time & total hours billed in bid.
