Seeking artists to help with characters, props, textures

Hello,

I am seeking someone to work with that can produce professional results in a timely manor and is capable of helping in several key areas of need. Any applications need to have VERY good skills with ZBrush 4, Photoshop and either Maya, Max or Modo.

If you know Poser and have Poser Pro 2010, Poser 8 or 7, then we can discuss specific character creation needs there for custom work in ZBrush as well. Otherwise you can build the custom models in ZBrush and rig them using one of the programs mentioned above if required for the project.

One main requirement though is the ability to speak fluent English for our communications. What I need varies but mainly it will be several main areas: character creation, props creation (i.e. swords, helmets, masks, cloths, etc.) and texturing of items created.

This content is to be exclusive to me for the stories and graphic novels that I write. Therefore, both an NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) and work contract will be provided that outlines copyrights, payment terms, etc. for the artist. All professional artists that have worked for game companies or other development firms understand this need as it is the only professional way to conduct business and protect the interests of all parties.

I will provide details as much as possible for guidance of how certain things should look for the models, props, etc. but the artist must be able to also be creative and present some idea sketches as well. In other words, be able to visualize concepts and ask for input on the art sketches you present.

Please keep in mind I am not a BIG company or startup with lots of money to spend. Having said that, I do expect to pay for quality work, but it needs to be reasonable. Also, I hope to find those that want to have a working relationship for multiple and continued help with projects, not just a one time deal.

As an example of work agreement and payment, I always have contracts that are fair for both parties. Payment is made 50/50 which is to say 50% to start the project outlined in the work contract and 50% upon completion. I use Paypal for all transactions since it is the fastest and most reliable method for transferring funds. I will not disclose fees paid in public but I usually am able to come to some sort of agreement.

Please contact me here via private message if interested with your details and any references to your work.

Thanks,

Jeff
