Job description

Remote Concept Artist / 3D Character Modeler job at Ludicrous Film and Games. United States.

I’m seeking a Concept Artist and/or 3D Character Modeler to help define the visual identity of Tales of Thaeryn: The Rend. This is an early-stage indie project — currently a solo effort — with me handling design, systems, and Unreal Engine implementation.

I’m looking for creative collaborators to bring the world of Thaeryn to life through expressive character designs and creature concepts that reflect the game’s magical tone. As a collaborator, you’ll have the chance to help shape a storybook-like world from the ground up — one that balances beauty, spirit, and corruption.

This role is freelance, flexible, and remote. I’m especially interested in working with artists who enjoy stylized worldbuilding, hybrid animal/fantasy designs, and storytelling through shape and form.

Here’s our first hero character concept to give you a sense of the tone and direction and I'm looking for artist who can work with and help push this style:
