Stylized Guardian Models, Animation & VFX for a Roblox Tower Defense Game
Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD
***Budget is firm. Do not ask me what my budget is! Budget is listed in the post***
Hey! I'm a solo dev building an original gacha-style tower defense game for Roblox. Concept art is locked for all 13 of my "Guardian" characters and I'm looking for someone to bring them to life. The Guardians are the towers in this game — players summon them and place them down to defend, so they need to read well and look great standing in place.
To be clear: these aren't blocky Roblox-avatar-style characters. I'm after high-quality, polished models — the Roblox part is just the engine they're shipping into, not the look.
The roster (13 total):
- 4 commons
- 4 rares
- 4 epics
- 1 mythic
What I need (per Guardian):
- A game-ready 3D model, rigged and cleanly imported into Roblox Studio
- 4 animations: 1 idle, 1 basic attack, 1 strong attack, 1 spawn-in
- Matching VFX
- (The mythic also gets an "ultimate ability" animation + VFX)*
Tri budgets:
- Common: ~2,000–2,500
- Rare: ~4,000–6,000
- Epic / Mythic: ~10,000–15,000
Pay (per model — covers model + animations + VFX):
- Common: $100 ×4 = $400
- Rare: $100 ×4 = $400
- Epic: $125 ×4 = $500
- Mythic: $150 ×1 = $150
- Total: $1,450
Pricing is firm! This is the budget for the project, so please only reach out if it works for you.
One more thing: I'd love to find someone long term for this project, not just this batch. This is the first of several projects, and there's a lot more substantial work ahead — so if you're after an ongoing collaboration rather than a one-off, even better.
If this is your kind of work, drop your portfolio (stylized / game creature + character work especially) and let me know roughly how many you'd want to take on. Happy to start with a single test piece before committing to the full set.
Thanks!
