13 days ago6 proposalsRemoteTshirt Designer for Wargaming store
Hi! I'm Tom, and I'm setting up a wargaming and hobby shop called Nirvana Wargaming in Chesterfield, UK. Alongside the shop, I'm developing our own range of T-shirts featuring original artwork. If you love warhammer, DND or any other wargames this could be a fun thing to work on. I'm looking for an illustrator whose style would suit the range, ideally someone I'd be able to work with on multiple designs over time. **The style I'm after** I'm drawn to dark fantasy, gothic imagery, medieval warriors, religious symbolism and grim, apocalyptic landscapes. I love artwork that tells a story, particularly illustrations with a strong central character set against a detailed backdrop. Some of the inspiration comes from older grimdark artwork and settings such as Trench Crusade, but I'm keen to develop our own original style rather than simply create gaming merchandise. Ideally, the designs would appeal to people who love alternative clothing and dark fantasy, even if they've never played a wargame. The T-shirts will be black and washed-black oversized fits, so artwork that works well against dark fabric would be ideal. **What I'm looking for** - Original illustrations created specifically for our brand. - The opportunity to discuss ideas and agree on a rough concept before the finished artwork. - High-resolution, transparent-background files suitable for DTF T-shirt printing. - Editable source files where possible. - Commercial usage rights that allow us to print and sell the designs on our own clothing, including future reprints. I'm hoping to start with one design and, if we work well together, commission more as the clothing range develops. I am completely new to this so have no idea how this works. Thanks for taking the time to read this. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do! Tom Nirvana Wargaming
