2D game environment art

[AjaxTheLesser]

We require 2D environment art for our game. Details:

- Prefer a forest scene. If not dense forest, nature elements must be in the background as well (mountains, clouds, vegetation, etc). If you feel you have something that is not quite similar but compelling, feel free to post. Our game background scene is completely detached from the game mechanism itself, so there is some breathing room on the nature of the scene.
- Must be multi-layered and broken down into at least a few layers such as background, background trees, individual trees/branches, environment, if any (particles, insects, etc). Close-up elements such as branches must be properly blurred to simulate DoF
- We do not coach. Instead, we let the artist take artistic liberty with the final product as per requirements. If guidance is needed, thorough descriptions will be provided, but without sketches.
- This game is heading to tablets. For reference, base resolution is 1920 x 1080. There will be side-scrolling but where limited. Seamless edges are not required, but some overflow (beyond base) is.
- You *must* link to specific items in your existing portfolio that match the above requirements. 2D game background scenes, multi-layered environments, etc. If you respond with “if you describe with what you need with more details, I can…”, you will not receive a response.
- You must provide pricing for your portfolio items. If you respond with “if you describe with what you need with more details, I can estimate….”, you will not receive a response.
- Payments will be done via PayPal with 50% upon commissioning of work and 50% upon delivery.
- Your final product will be exclusive and licensed for our game title only. You will not be allowed to resale or redistribute it. You will, of course, be able to post it in your portfolio. You will be credited by name in our game title.

This is just a commission; not full-time work. Let us know if you have any additional questions or require clarifications.
Please post reply, PM, etc with interest, pricing, questions, etc.

Hey there, we've got some great stuff that matches what you describe as we were commissioned a while ago to make all of the background images that acted as the levels for a children's flash game. As these 2D images were used to creaet a faux 3D environment that the kids would explore the level of detail had to be very complex. I'll send you a PM with some more details but feel free to head over to our illustrative portfolio here: Illustrations - Ironbelly Studios for more examples

My name is Gary Cooper and I've been doing BG Art and Illustration for over 20yrs. You can view my work at Home. Specific game art is in the link "game art" I believe you'll find something there that may give you a good idea as to my abilities. As for quoting. My minimum starts at $500. That get you as many layers as you need and 2 revisions. More complex and pan shot are priced accordingly. If you feel my work works withing your budget and style I'l love to have a chat. Hope to talk in the near future.

Best Regards

Hello, I tried to PM you but with no luck.
My name is Fabrizio Bortolussi, I'm an italian fulltime freelance
creature designer/art director with my studio based in Rome. I have
worked with Giger, Neill Blomkamp, Neville Page, Weta Digital/Workshop,

I'm able to illustrate, sculpt, paint, design and texture basically
any type of creature, asset, toy production, environment both in traditional and digital
media. I email you since I'd be interested in working with you.
As far as quotes, for something like this I'd ask around 800-1000 USD.

Thank you.

Warm Regards,

Noticed that your inbox is full and can't receive anymore pm's so I sent you one over on Deviant art. Let me know if you have any questions

[Neesha]

Yes, your inbox is overflowed so nobody can message you at the moment.
Anyway: are you still looking for a 2D environment artist?

I'd love to help, but I don't know what style exactly you need (cartoony or realistic), since you didn't state that.

Some info about myself:
http://www.petravanberkum.nl/infoenglish.html
Relevant examples of my artwork:
http://www.petravanberkum.nl/images/...springback.jpg
http://www.petravanberkum.nl/images/...isofmarald.jpg
http://www.petravanberkum.nl/images/...sacredrite.jpg

These aren't layered, but creating things in layers wouldn't be a problem since I create it all in Photoshop/Painttool SAI.
For one layered background image, I would ask $263/€200

Let me know if I can help you out! You can mail back to info(at)petravanberkum.nl
