Hello there forumgoers!
I'm a longtime lurker, first-time requestor, hoping that I've shared enough helpful information to inspire interest in supporting a project!
I've been helping a few friends of mine with an alt-girl-focused labor of erotic love, and after nearly 3 years of development, we feel confident that we could release a demo for our game at a convention in October.
With that in mind, I'm casting out some feelers for a background artist who would like to support our work, helping us preserve the integrity of our artistic vision and add some polish to our offering to the world.
I hope that our studio's request piques your interest, and we look forward to speaking with you soon.
Project:
- Our game is Hedge Knight, an H-RPG featuring a lovely coven of witches to (possibly) charm and (definitely) protect through a series of crises. We’re about 3 years into development, and looking to release a demo in late October.
- We've done a great deal of character work, our writing is near-complete, and the mechanical things behind the game are just about done.
Developer:
- We are Studio Witchthirst, and I am the Executive Producer for this project. This should be my Discord handle: malanaman. If results are inconclusive, please let me know.
Looking for:
- We’re looking for a 2D Artist to serve as our background artist! We have 10 backgrounds we’d need to proudly release our demo in October.
Employment Type:
- We’re paying outright for a series of commissions, and are amenable to advance payments and payments on completion.
Work commitment:
We’re hoping to find an artist to work with throughout the game's release, and we’d rather avoid crunch, so we’re looking for someone with short-term availability for several backgrounds.
- If we are fortunate, we would like to extend a longer-term relationship to the artist we partner with for the duration of Hedge Knight’s development.
Preferred method of contact:
- Feel free to reach out via Discord at malanaman (if this doesn't work, I'll edit this post and respond to interested parties appropriately). Please send a DM through the site with your Discord handle so I can properly identify you for future communications.
Job Description:
-We would like to commission an artist for a minimum of 10 backgrounds for our game in time for our intended demo release before October 24, 2025. The game sits in the “vaguely medieval fantasy” aesthetic, with some more whimsical, mystical, and ethereal elements in specific areas of the game whose representations are negotiable.
- We've collected a series of artistic and aesthetic references that we hope will help guide your construction of these spaces and will share them with you when we've made a hiring decision.
- We would like to introduce you and your work to our current character artist, such that we can observe a stylistic fit and help establish a well-defined workflow that is reasonably paced and well supported.
Additional comments:
- If possible, we would also like to retain the services of the artist we commission for the remaining backgrounds of this project and background support for erotic scenes.
- Since we plan to release our demo at an event where we will debut our crowdfunding pages, the ability to retain intermediary phases of the artworks produced would be highly prized as crowd funder reward content.
