Project Description:

I am a indie game developer working on my first game. It is a top-down space shooter. I have the concept all planned and I have settled on a graphical style for the game, and for most of the graphics I even have prototype graphics. The style will be battle worn much like in the Alien films and with a decent amount of details. I am no artist and I need someone to make all the graphics for the game, including all spaschips and also the graphics for the menu system and intro and splashscreens. You do not have to invent the concept or the style for the graphics as I can do that and have that mostly done, but as I am no artist you are more than welcome to only use my prototype graphics as lose inspiration. Here under I will try and make a overview of the task.

Spaceships
- All spaceships will be in the size between 210x270 to 250x600 approximately and look good when scaled down 3 times (so 210x270 becomes 70x90)
- 32 spaceships with outlines done by me
- Each of the 32 spaschips break up into 3-6 different parts when they die, so for each spaceship there will be 4-7 drawings but with all the broked parts based on the complete spaceship (thus there will be approximately 130 drawings here, but I am guessing that the broken parts are quite easy and fast to do)

Menu system
- I have a overall design made ready for the menu system, and the graphics I have created here is ok I think, but it is in a wrong size. But if it changes the price a lot, I am sure I can redo it in the right sizes (I need something like 8 sizes for different screen resolutions)
- I need you to design a nice looking sub-menu set consisting of something like 8 different menu buttons but with the same design/look

Weapons
- 5 different weapon systems with completly different graphics, and 4 variances of each

Into/Slashscreens
- I have not yet done the concept for the intro and cutsceens/spashscreens, but I am guessing about 10 sceens here also.

This is the first time I am hiring a artist so I will be collecting some different offers before I can finally decide because I have no idea on the price for a project like this. It will be a paid job! I am on a tight budget sadly, but I do have a budget at least. If you price is to high, but you are thr right person for the job, I am willing to talk about things to cut out (to do my self) so that we can meet my budget.

I have no website yet, but it is being build for me as we speed (spending money on that too).

Best regards
