Hi everyone, So I've started writing a 2D "casual" game which I intend to sell. Therefore, I'm willing to fork out a little cash to have some professional art created. Depending on the quality of the art, my budget is anywhere between $200 and $800. Where would you guys suggest I start looking for artists? Thanks for the help. -------------------------------------------------- |

Although senior students are more like to BS you, a professional artist is not as willing to work the type of design you need. Students are more willing to listen instead of "having an ego" so to speak.

A professional artist is exactly what I need. I need quality art work on time, and I'm willing to pay for it. The art involves some simple 2D sprites, one or two backgrounds, and some minimal sprite based animation. -------------------------------------------------- |

I think a web designer might be better, someone with flash experience. Animators are more expensive, not sure how much but. And thats just something I googled. Im not sure how much time it would take to make what you want. Btw I can't do that. I'm only good with photography, although I used to draw comics 15 years ago, my skills in that have gone to zero since I'm lazy (Hence why I photograph).

Post an offer on Pixeljoint, if you haven't already. There's a dedicated "job offerings" forum. |

I did a small project for SonShadowCat on here. It's included in my portfolio -- the 'Populi Vis' ============================= |
