Job Description

In this volunteer position we are looking for someone who specializes in creating fantastical creatures for the The Lays of Althas: Sundered Order (LoA:SO). We are looking for a skilled 3D Creature Artist with a decent level of experience creating realistic Creatures that could go alongside realistic Human characters (they will be realistic-looking creatures, but with unique fantastical and heraldic touches). Rigging and Skinning these Creatures is not required.

Communication is key to a smooth and efficient pipeline. You must be able to communicate clearly and effectively with other team-members and not be afraid to ask should any problems arise. We are an English-speaking team, so English fluency is a must.

If you are comfortable with teaching, you may be called upon to aid the more junior members of the team in any relevant area.

Other duties include following team policies (given through team orientation as upon acceptance to the team) as well as attending meetings through Slack (our instant message program that we use to communicate)

This is a volunteer position, so no monetary compensation is being offered. We also cannot offer any work visas.

At this time, we are having to rely upon free (or previously licensed) software. Please refer to the applications listed below for guidelines. We do not endorse piracy in any shape or form.
