We are developing our own game IP (intellectual property) with the prospect of further scaling.
The project is a cross-platform multiplayer game, which is planned to be launched on:
Game genre:
Main mechanics:
Players control insect characters.
At this stage, we already have:
At the first stage, we are working with one character.
This is:
This is currently the main visual reference for the future universe of the game.
We already have a generated character.
The artist does NOT need to create a character from scratch.
Main task:
Take the existing AI-generated character (Fly) and translate it into a professional production-quality character concept for further game development.
In simpler terms:
Do not come up with a new character.
Instead, professionally refine the existing one.
The project uses insects that often evoke disgust in real life.
For example:
Our creative task:
Transform naturally unpleasant creatures into characters that evoke sympathy, emotional connection, and a desire to interact with them.
We want to create characters that can potentially become:
We are not just building a game.
We are building a future franchise.
We already have a ready AI-generated character:
(Will be provided to the artist)
Important:
Radical changes to the main style of the character are prohibited.
The existing visual DNA must be preserved.
The character must have a large amount of fur.
Reason:
Fluffiness neutralizes the natural disgust evoked by the insect.
We specifically want to create a creature that is unpleasant by nature but looks attractive at the same time.
Fur is one of the fundamental design elements.
Not allowed:
The eyes are one of the main elements of character.
The eyes should be:
The gaze should create a feeling:
this character is a bit inadequate… but very charismatic
A mandatory design element.
The tongue should create a feeling of:
The tongue is part of the recognizable style of the character.
The character must have visible teeth.
But:
NOT horror.
NOT a monster.
NOT an aggressive snarl.
The feeling needed:
This is a critically important point.
When looking at the character, the thought should arise:
I would like to have this as a plush toy.
We consciously design characters so that they can potentially become:
It is necessary to create a feeling of:
But the character must remain attractive.
It is necessary to remove:
A final production-ready version of the character must be created.
The character should look as if it is already part of a AAA-level game.
The character needs to be shown in 4 angles:
At least 5 emotions need to be created.
At least 5 poses need to be created.
The design must be detailed enough to be handed over to a 3D Artist.
It is necessary to logically show:
We are looking for a person with experience in:
Experience with AI-generated art will be a big plus.
Be sure to attach:
We are NOT looking for:
We need specifically:
who understands the game industry pipeline.

Budget: 4000 UAH Deadline: 5 days
Hello, if I understood your task correctly, you need to refine the idea (reference) of your character? I have been working in Photoshop and Illustrator for several years, and I would really like to work with you on this offer.
