I am looking to pay an artist (or artists) that can help me create a number of Risk-style maps for a browser-based game.

- Deliverable will need to be PSD, AI, or EPS (I will prep for web use)
- I am looking for full ownership
- Map sizes will vary - most created for use at 1024x768
- Quality of art vs file size (load time) will be an important balancing act
- Artwork will need to be simple, stylish, & communicate territories well
- The game is currently in development - so timeline is flexible

Initially, I am commissioning for 'classic' maps (world, Europe, US). So existing line work is publicly available as a starting point. In the future I will be branching out into various genres & styles (hex/wargame, fantasy, space, etc).

Please email promo@cityglow.com with any additional questions, portfolio submissions, & quotes for your time. Initial quotes should be based off work on a single 'classic' map.

I am looking for quotes as soon as possible -- but will be entertaining quotes for some time, as map development will be ongoing.

I will be making selections based off:
1. Communication
2. Your ability to demonstrate an understanding of my design goals (appreciate questions)
3. Quality of portfolio (willing to consider all levels of experience -- but looking for high quality work on this project)
3. Price (but please quote what you think you time is worth)

Thanks for your time & consideration!

Hello James,
I work with several game companies producing artwork and I also do all of the design work for my own products. Below is a large Risk map I'm creating for a friend that is a work in progress.

I would be happy to give you a quote based on what you are looking for. You can see my portfolio of work at: http://www.VanOverbay.com. You can see my professional profile at: http://www.linkedin.com/in/vanoverbay. My rate is $60.00 an hour but I do provide quotes on a per project basis. As you said, with existing line art these can be knocked out fairly efficiently and cost effective.
