Job Details

Senior 3D Artist


Seeking…

Crate Entertainment, the creators of Grim Dawn and Farthest Frontier, are looking for a versatile 3D Artist. You don’t need to be a master of everything but, as a member of a small team, you should be willing and able to work in at least a couple different areas, be it environmental, props, UI, characters, etc.

Due to this success, our studio is well-funded, completely financially and creatively independent and not answerable to any sort of investors or publishers. Because of this, we can offer greater job security and a lower stress work environment than most larger developers. We are not beholden to milestone deliverables, own all of the IP we create and believe that as long as we’re working efficiently, the game will be done in however long it takes for us to feel satisfied that it’s ready. By working in smaller teams, we are able to develop big games on a smaller budget and at a slower pace that allows time to add more detail and nuance than often exists in many bigger budget titles.

  • Create assets in accordance with the defined style and performance specifications of the project.

  • Excellent 3D modelling and texturing skills with both organics and hard-surface 
  • Highly proficient with 3D Studio Max and / or Maya, ZBrush, Substance Painter, Photoshop.
  • Ability to produce clean, crisp, highly readable textures.
  • Team player, ready to take on any task.
  • Self-driven, able to take critique and a team-player.

Desired Qualifications

  • The ability to rig, animate and implement character animations is a big plus.

  • Experience creating effects
  • Enjoy working in a semi-realistic, detailed art style as seen in our existing games.
