FREE: 20hrs custom 2d art!

[lief]

Hi,

My name is lief jorgen. I do 2d gameart. I have been involved as an artist with Nintendo DS and T-Mobile Sidekick game development, and a lot of digital art over the past 10 years.
I am offering 20 hours of my time (worth ~$1200) as an artist, FREE, to a suitable candidate. I will select a game to work on in one weeks time (24 March, 200.

I will need a game prototype (obviously the graphics do not matter), a short description of your game & gameplay, an outline of your artistic vision for the game.
Get in early so I have plenty of time to consider.

Please contact me at lief.jorgen@gmail.com, or leave a message here.

I am giving this gift back to the community in appreciation of the indie games scene.

Hello Lief,

Thank you for this opportunity. I'm sure there are quite a few of us who could use a graphics artist. I was wondering, would it be possible for you to show us what you've done recently, so we can get an impression of your style?

(bumped to news)

No problems, these graphics are from a little project i'm working on myself (so don't steal them. the bullets you can use if you can find a way i guess)





and these are various images from the past, various styles, a lot of pixelart, a couple of logos and a few screens of old projects.

Too sad I am currently not working on a 2D game.

I really like the offer you make to get into the community. Nice run!
And I love your graphics.

As Alex (Traveler) already said, there should be some people here that need a good hand at arts. (I know of at least one, but I know that he is busy with other things at the moment. I will try to get his attention to this thread anyway).

Greetings,
Dirk

Nice work, and shows why an artist can make money in gaming . What is Sylphus from?

(so don't steal them. the bullets you can use if you can find a way i guess)

He must have spent some time surfing this board before he posted those LOL. We are a bunch of art-deprived developers .

the bullets looks great

Very interesting

Unfortunately i need a 3d gfx for my game, FAR Colony

Clean work anyway it's very cool from you part to give some of your time to someone.

Anyway if you're interested at least to see, my project is here:

Very nice artwork, I remember one of those pixelarts from a pixelart community.

I don't have any 2D projects currently, but the members of this forum have been trying to define the game development competition of this year. Would it be a good idea if lief created a given set of graphics, and we worked with those? :?

Nice idea!!

How about a sprite set of generic graphics that can be used accross a set of genres such as Shooter, Puzzle and platformer and let everyone make a game from you collection!

How about producing a set of sprites for this years competition.. There has been some talk about developing various games all with the same basic graphics
