We are looking for an artist to create a series of sprites (with animations) for a mobile phone game we are developing. The sprites should be simple/cartoonish (think flash game). We have some existing art that we would like the art to mesh well with, but the style is pretty open ended otherwise.
## Deliverables
We are looking for an artist to create a series of sprites (with animations) for a mobile phone game we are developing. The sprites should be simple/cartoonish (think flash game). We have some existing art that we would like the art to mesh well with, but the style is pretty open ended otherwise.
All art shall be considered work "made-for-hire" and we shall retain the copyrights.
The images can be created in Illustrator or Flash though they will need to be exported to PNG images. The original images must be authored as vector art and we will require the corresponding files (Illustrator/Flash/etc).
Below is a list of the sprites we need. All sprites will be a profile view facing left to right.
Car
* Shape of car will be based on existing photograph.
* Black glossy with a white racing stripe along the side.
* Slightly oversized wheels.
* Wheels will need to be exported separately from body.
UFO
* Typical circular UFO.
* Spinning animation (very simple, just enough to give the illusion of rotation, maybe with some blinking lights).
UFO Missile.
* Style should match UFO.
Spaceship
* A spaceship in a style that matches the UFO.
* Simple animation for when the ship is in motion (ie: thrusters).
Spaceship Missile.
* Style should match Spaceship.
Helicopter
* Probably green to give the impression of being an Army helicopter.
* Does not need any other identifying features nor be based on any actual model.
* Propeller spinning animation.
* Helicopter Bomb
* Style should match Helicopter
Jet
* Same criteria as helicopter. Does not need to be based on any particular model, just needs to seem "Army-ish".
* Simple animation for when the jet is in motion (ie: thrusters).
Jet Missile
* Style should match Army Jet.
Explosion Animations
* All sprites will need an explosion animation (including the missiles / bombs).
* The explosion should be fairly simple, but tailored for each sprite.
We are looking to have all of the sprites completed within 6 weeks of beginning the project, with weekly deliverables.
Week 1- Car w/ explosion animation
Week 2 - UFO & UFO Missile w/ explosion animations
Week 3 - Spaceship & Spaceship Missile w/ explosion animations
Week 4 - Helicopter & Helicopter Bomb w/ explosion animations
Week 5 - Jet & Jet Missile w/ explosion animations
Week 6 - Miscellaneous changes / updates to previous deliverables
Each deliverable will have a corresponding payment equal to 1/6 the agreed project price (ie: project is paid out over 6 week period).
