Medieval RPG Character Design

Job ID: 40231486

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I’m building a medieval-fantasy role-playing game and need a talented character artist to visualise its cast. The project covers three groups of characters—playable heroes, memorable villains and everyday NPCs—each with distinctive silhouettes, gear and personalities.

Scope and deliverables
• 8–10 unique characters to start (heroes, villains and NPCs)
• Front, side and back views for every character
• Colour palette, brief bio and gear call-outs per design
• Layered PSD (or Clip Studio) files plus high-res PNG exports

Art direction
The core look is classic medieval fantasy. Subtle sci-fi accents in armour patterns or weapon silhouettes are welcome if they help the designs stand out without breaking the setting’s tone.

Process
I’ll supply detailed lore, class descriptions and mood boards once we begin. Expect feedback rounds after each milestone so we can refine anatomy, clothing and props quickly.

What I’m looking for
• Strong grasp of anatomy, fabric and armour design
• Proven experience creating stylised or semi-realistic RPG characters
• Ability to hit deadlines—target completion for the initial batch is four weeks

To apply
Please share two or three portfolio pieces that match this style and let me know your typical turnaround time per character. There’s room for ongoing work as the game’s roster expands. I’m excited to see how you’ll bring these heroes, villains and NPCs to life!
