Concept Artist

I'm looking for a game concept artist/illustrator (remote)!
Rate: $1,500–$2,000/month
Duration: 4–5 months, start Nov/Dec 2026, end March/April 2027

Overview:
You'll shape the look of 5-10 distinct levels/environments, from creature design to landscape and atmosphere, working closely with the team to bring an interconnected, non-extractive alien biosphere to life.

Responsibilities:
- Produce concept art renderings for 5-10 biomes.
- Help bring to life elements consistent with the game's ecological mechanics and existing design documents (flora, fauna, robotic, and other 'living' elements such as soil, rivers, fungi, etc.).

Pluses:
- Experience imagining + illustrating non-traditional body structures (3 legs, 7 arms, 15 joints, gyroscopic torsos, etc.)
- Comfortable working in a hand-drawn or painterly style (Moebius, Miyazaki (Ghibli), Green Street Pictures (Scavengers Reign, Common Side Effects), or similar sensibilities a plus).
- Interest in ecological sci-fi, Indigenous-futurist, or post-heroic storytelling.
- Interest in non-verbal communication + signaling; whimsy form and function.
