Realistic Concept Illustrator Needed for Dark Urban Artwork (Not Web Design)
Budget: £20 – £250 GBP
We are a UK-based streetwear brand preparing to launch. We are looking for a professional digital illustrator to create a realistic, symbolic and atmospheric concept illustration for our landing page.
This is not a website or UI/UX design task. We are exclusively seeking a digital artist with strong experience in freehand or concept-style illustration, who understands how to evoke visual impact through lighting, texture, symbolism, and depth.
What we need:
*One horizontal digital illustration, formatted for web use
*Must include a central visual element (e.g. artifact, symbol, energy source — not a character)
*The artwork should feel dark, urban, elegant, and conceptually powerful
*Must leave space in the composition for future text or interface elements
*Realism and attention to detail are key. We are particularly interested in artists with control over glass, crystal, fire, smoke, or energy-like textures
*Strong lighting and depth are essential. Ability to simulate 3D surfaces is a plus
Deliverables:
High-resolution image (PNG or JPG)
Optional: layered PSD or individual elements, if available
Style references:
Concept art or high-end digital illustration
Streetwear or urban symbolic design
No cartoon, anime or comic-style approaches
To apply:
Share your portfolio, highlighting dark, urban, conceptual or realistic illustrations
Briefly explain why your style fits this project
Proposals without relevant portfolio samples will not be considered
We will share full brand references and the creative direction privately with the selected artist. Only serious and skilled illustrators should apply.
