You’ll play a key role in the design process, from ideation to detailed illustrations ready for integration, while working closely with the art team to refine your work based on feedback.

- Develop designs blending hard-surface precision with organic flourishes.
- Create sketches and iterations, culminating in detailed illustrations ready for integration.

- Specific expertise in weapon concept art, supported by a portfolio showcasing weapons and technical props.

- Strong creativity, constant curiosity, and a passion for visual exploration.
- Open-mindedness, flexibility, and enthusiasm for cross-disciplinary collaboration.
- Ability to manage projects autonomously and efficiently, with senior-level skills to meet high expectations without close supervision.
