I'm building an original gacha-style tower defense game and need a skilled 3D character artist to bring my Guardian roster to life. Concept art is fully locked and ready to share. The Guardians are the towers in the game. Players summon and place them, so they need strong silhouettes, clear rarity reads, and polished execution. To be clear: this is not a blocky Roblox-avatar-style project. The engine is Roblox Studio, but the art direction is high-quality and stylized. The full roster is 13 Guardians across four rarity tiers: 4 Commons, 4 Rares, 4 Epics, and 1 Mythic. Each Guardian requires: A game-ready 3D model, rigged and cleanly imported into Roblox Studio. Four animations: idle, basic attack, strong attack, and spawn-in. Matching VFX tied to the character's theme and rarity. The Mythic also gets an additional ultimate ability animation and VFX set. What I'm looking for in a freelancer: Proven experience with stylized 3D character modeling and rigging. Strong animation work, especially for game-ready characters. VFX experience for Roblox or comparable real-time engines. Clean Roblox Studio import workflow. Comfortable working from locked concept art. Reliable communication and ability to deliver consistently across a multi-character project. I'd like to start with a single test piece before committing to the full roster. If the quality and workflow are a good fit, this becomes an ongoing collaboration with more substantial work ahead. Please include a portfolio with stylized character and creature work when applying. Bonus if you have Roblox or similar game engine experience.

Hello there, Your need for a highly polished gacha-style 3D character artist who can deliver clean rigged models with compelling animations and theme-based VFX in Roblox Studio is clear. I understand the need for strong character silhouettes and distinct rarity tiers, and I can provide exactly that with polished execution. Having worked extensively with 3D character modeling and rigging in game engines like Roblox Studio, I can ensure your Guardian roster gets smooth idle, attack, spawn, and ultimate animations where needed. My approach would be: 1) Analyze your locked concept art carefully, 2) Model and rig the character with a focus on clarity and style, 3) Create and sync themed VFX animations consistent with rarity and character abilities. I propose starting with the test piece to demonstrate workflow and quality, aiming to deliver it promptly for your review. Open communication throughout will keep the collaboration on track. What key gameplay experience or emotion should each Guardian's animations and VFX evoke for players? Best regards, Anatolie

Stylized 3D character work that goes beyond Roblox's default blocky avatar style is exactly the kind of project I aim for, strong silhouettes and clear rarity reads matter a lot in a gacha tower defense game where players are summoning and identifying units at a glance. For each Guardian I would model and rig the character for clean Roblox Studio import, then build the four animations, idle, basic attack, strong attack, and spawn-in, with weight and timing that reflects the character's theme and rarity tier. VFX would be tied directly to that same identity, a Common's effects feeling more grounded and simple while higher rarities get more elaborate particle and trail work that visually communicates power level. For the Mythic, the ultimate ability animation and VFX set would be the standout centerpiece of the roster. Starting with a single test piece makes complete sense given the scope of 13 characters, it lets us validate art direction, rigging approach, and Roblox import workflow before committing to the full pipeline. I am comfortable working from locked concept art and keeping consistent quality and communication across a multi-character project like this. Happy to share stylized character and creature portfolio work. Could you share the concept art for one of the Common tier Guardians so I can scope the test piece accurately?
