interested in a job?

just a quick note.

For those of you who have a well developed portfolio and are capable of doing realistic area textures...and want a job...now is the time to submit.

I am currently reviewing portfolios for a texture artist position at TROIKA GAMES. We need someone who can draw and paint and who can particularily make "realistic" area and level textures for our newest title.

knowledge of photoshop,painter, and 3ds max or Lightwave is entirely preferred.

if you have got "skillz" let me know if you are interested in working on a beautiful 3d game with lots of art and a fun well developed storyline.

experience not necessary but some would definitely help.

Im looking for good color, attention to detail and an understanding of subtle form...the ability to suggest mood and visual feel is a must.

talk to you soon

troika's a good company, they made arcanum (which BTW suffered in the visuals department) but it had very good content.

you funny guy you...anthony..

haha

no we are not desperate..far from it...was simply being nice...I am going to put up an ad at the art schools..we arent hiring until at least mid january.

I simply wanted to see what kind of response Id get from the forums...I spend a lot of time on the digital art discussion area and thought Id give you all first crack at the submissions.

best of luck

Troika.. that sounds russian, and im russian in need of a job with games.. so i would join.
But CA is on the opposite shore from me, and flying on planes is a no-no

Can you folks move closer to NY/NJ area by any chance? hehe

Hehe, you know I was joking ^_^ I think it's great you're offering to the guys on the forums first, there are a ton of good artists around here.
