About the job

Project Title: Hi-Bit Pixel Art Character Sprite — Retro Funk/Sci-Fi Game Concept Category: 2D Game Art / Pixel Art / Character Design Character: “Velvet” — a flashy 70s funk showman and leader of a space-faring crew. Full body, front-facing or 3/4 view, standing pose (confident, one hand on hip or resting on a cane). Reference style: Attached image shows the target quality level — bold black outlines, rich cel-shading/dithering, saturated color palette, painterly pixel detail. This is NOT a low-res retro/8-bit style — looking for the higher-detail “hi-bit” approach. Outfit details: • Wide-brim hat OR tall afro with a gold streak (open to artist’s take — will specify final direction after seeing style samples) • Full beard, mirrored/star-shaped sunglasses • Open-collar suit (teal-blue or magenta — open to suggestion) with flared bell-bottom pants • Flowing cape (purple with red lining) • Gold chain + medallion • Platform boots or heeled shoes • A cane with a gem-topped handle, planted on the ground Deliverables: • 1 finished character illustration, transparent background • PNG file, minimum 1024px tall • Source file (Aseprite/PSD/etc.) if possible, so it can be edited later What I’m evaluating: Whether your style matches the vision for a larger character roster + environment art project down the line. Happy to discuss ongoing work if this test goes well. Please include in your bid: 2–3 portfolio pieces in a similar hi-bit/detailed pixel art style.
