Leading-edge gaming studio looking for a talented game artist with a diverse skillset, exceptional work ethic, and passion for making game art, to join our fast-growing team.
We are developing Ember Sword, a groundbreaking platform-agnostic and Free-to-Play MMORPG Game set in a player-driven fantasy universe, with digital collectible cosmetics and a blockchain-enhanced economy.
It’s a universe where the players control the world through true land ownership. A game in which all valuable cosmetic items are tokenized as scarce non-fungible crypto-collectibles, which are acquired by players through gameplay objectives, instead of sold through lootboxes. With a fan community spanning more than a hundred thousand people, a strong advisory board, a $2M investment round this year, and a very successful first land sale campaign ($1.5M) that sold out in just a few hours, Ember Sword is aiming high and growing fast.
As a 3D artist working at Bright Star Studios, you will be designing and implementing artistic concepts and features in close collaboration with the design and art team, and the devs.

You have experience with high to low poly workflows, modular modeling, UV unwrapping, optimizing 3D mesh geometry, importing/testing art assets
You can run & develop an idea without needing concept art
You have a strong understanding of what constitutes good mesh topology
