  1. Company Info: Gamer Outfit
  2. Job Info: Pixel artist to create 64x64 top-down terrain tiles
  3. Paid: Price Negotiable, starting at $250.00 USD
  4. email address: sales [at] gameroutfit [dot] com
  5. company website:  www.GamerOutfit.com
  6. previous projects: Exisled (360), WallZ (iPhone)
The tiles are for a turn-based strategy war game. 

I need tiles that are 64 x 64 in size.  I need 32 "base" terrain tiles for grass and shoreline.  I need 40 "detail" tiles for trees, hills, mountains, roads, walls, and a few other elements.  Layered tiles in .PSD format are desired (so I can transition where necessary.)

The "style" I am going for is similar to what you would find in Blizzard's RTS games such as Warcraft 3 and Starcraft 1 or 2.

You can see screen-shots of the war game at: http://www.war3100.com/media.html

I could use someone to make the terrain look "better".  If everything turns out well, more work will definitely be coming as I have four other projects lined up. 

I may even be interested in revenue sharing on some projects if I can get an artist who is willing to put as much work into projects as I do.  The work for these tiles on this project is flat out payment.  You will need a PayPal account as I will not do Money Orders (cost too much to send.)

Please contact me if interested.

Thanks!

I hope when you say the price is negotiable, you mean -really- negotiable.

You're asking for 72(64px by 64px) tiles for around $250?

That's less than $3.50 per tile. Each tile would probably take one, or two and more hours to complete.

64x64 tiles could be done a little faster than that, but even at two tiles an hour they're offering less than minimum wage, here.  Considering they're looking for Blizzard-level work, I'd expect something closer to Blizzard-level pay.

You may have misunderstood my post or it was not clear enough. 

Negotiable means negotiable depending on how much work can be done and at what quality.  I am not interested in anyone that can do less than the minimum amount of work listed $ wise is why there is a minimum listed there.  If you can do the entire set for a certain amount then I need to know what that is and we can work out the appropriate price.
