3d artists will be creating the models used in the game world. We need artists capable of creating static, organic, and architectural models with very low poly count suitable for use in an online game environment.

Texture artists are needed for creating the graphical textues, as well as the high resolution normal maps which are overlaid onto the 3D mesh.

Animators are needed for creating a variety of movements for a large quantity of previously created game models. Human models, a variety of animals, plants, and other objects need to be animated. Animators should expect to do their own rigging at this point in time, until we recruit sufficient number of artists to be able to dedicate a specific team of artists to Rigging.

2D Graphics artists are needed to create the GUI elements, icons, information indows, and other 2D features in the game.

2D Concept artists will create inspirational scenes, characters, objects, and similar works of art to aid the development team in creating content for the game world. In some cases concept art may also be used for marketing purposes on the website or in marketing publications.


This is a volunteer position. Each person works from their own home on their own time, collaborating with the rest of the team over the internet. Artists will be creating and submiting original works for the Visions game project. Artists who contribute to the development will be listed in the game credits, unless the artist specifically states they do not wish to be recognised. Work done for the team will count for resume experience.
