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 http://chris.itsmadscience.com/ - 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.
Images
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.

Hey guys, I just wanted to update this thread.
I have been working on some really cool projects over the last few months, I would like to share one here. http://tellest.com/category/firstpage/blog/ - http://tellest.com/category/firstpage/blog/ This is a game I am working on for fantasy author Mike DeAngelo for his Tellest universe. On this project I am doing game design, UI, art, and helping with Project Management. The world of Tellest is pretty cool, if you like fantasy stories you should check it out.
Also, for the first time in months my calendar is pretty open! If you are interested in getting anything done, send me an email.
