Pixel Joint Forum: Professional Game Artist!

Message

   Intro

Hey guys, I'm Chris. I've been in the games industry for over a decade and I've been doing freelance work for over 5. Here is my Portfolio.

I'm looking to be the go to freelance artist or game designer for indies and smaller companies looking to make games with high quality art. Any art commissioned will be fully yours and I will even provide any work files such as .PSDs I may have used. I am experienced in every role in creating a game, every type of 2D art asset, and nearly every game genre.

My prices are based on a fixed hourly rate, so your price will be based on how many hours that commission will take. That price is locked in and will not inflate if the project goes over the time I originally estimated. Paypal is the preferred payment method.

The more information you give me the better. To calculate the cost of the commission I need to know a few pieces of key information about what you need done. Dimensions (example, 128x128 pixels) is the most important one. When applicable I need to know Art Style, number of tiles, number of animations, or number of frames. 

Services

I offer a variety of services and am able to to complete all of the visual aspects of your game. Here are just a few of the services I can provide.

Mockups

Character Design

Animation

Backgrounds

Tilesets

Effects animation

User interface

Wireframes and Screenflows

Game Design

Documentation

All services are available for the same rate. All art can either Pixel Art or Digitally Painted.

Referral Bonus

Successfully refer a new commission to me and get $20 off your next order. Just make sure whoever you sent tells me who you are.

Promotions

I have promotions where I will take a percentage off of your order. For example in the month of February I will take 14% off of the total price.

I also have deals for referring new customers.  Just ask me if you are interested.

Contact

Email me at chris@itsmadscience.com and we can discuss your project and my rates by email or by phone.

I'll leave you with some samples.

Thanks for viewing! remember you can email me at chris@itsmadscience.com I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

	Just a few things, I made a huge update to my portfolio. It's now a lot more user friendly and I've added many items. Let it be known that for 2d game art I do pretty much everything: Sprites, Tiles, sprite fonts, UI, concept art, graphic design and more. Next is I've just finished working with a few clients that found me on this website and it went really well. So, Pixel Joint is awesome. My schedule is looking pretty open for the rest of May and most of June. If your interested, please shoot me an email.

	Two things. First I want to remind everyone that the promotion starts today. Any commissions From February 1st until February 28th will have 14% taken off the top. The next is I wanted to post a WIP image of a game I am developing.
