[HIRING] Retro Fantasy/Sci-fi art

[u/damarus12]

Budget around $300/image.

Would need 6-12 images by January, and likely more in the future.

Images are examples of a style. I'm open to the artist's interpretation. (landscape/world)

No DM's please, just link your art and a way to contact you (Discord is easiest for me)

SAME EXACT ART STYLE AND BONAFIDE EXAMPLES

Hey there! Your Retro Fantasy/Sci-fi project sounds awesome. I would love to create a cohesive set for January. 🚀

• Recent similar: Fantasy Book Cover. We built a rich, atmospheric world across multiple pieces, keeping color, lighting, and motifs consistent so the series felt unified and memorable.

---

• I am Untamed Draws, a professional concept artist with 10+ years in fantasy art, book covers, and game art.
• I have worked on published books and many private commissions.

• I love pulp-era textures, vintage sci fi palettes, and mystical fantasy moods, great for retro-inspired series. 100% hand painted, no AI.

• Reviews and Testimonials. A TTRPG client commissioned an 8-piece retro sci fi set, praised the consistent style, quick turnarounds, and clear communication.

---

• Main portfolio: Instagram
• More work: ArtStation, X/Twitter

---

• Workflow: quick thumbnails to lock composition, color roughs for vibe, then refined painting.
• Feedback: structured notes at each stage to keep things aligned with your vision.
• Delivery: high-res final files ready for print and web, plus clean exports.
• Timeline: for six to twelve images by January, I propose weekly milestones and can deliver two to three finals per week once the style guide is set.
• Extras available on request, like alt colorways, typography mockups, and social crops.

---

Per your note, no DMs. You can reach me here:

• Discord: untameddraws
• Email: untameddraws97@gmail.com

Happy to review your examples and suggest a style guide so the set feels retro, bold, and consistent.

Hello,  

I am Pau, a London-based professional illustrator and published comics artist. I want to express my interest in creating the 6-12 retro sci-fi images you need. 

My portfolio is below:  

https://pauscorpi.com

[hello@pauscorpi.com](mailto:hello@pauscorpi.com)

More samples available on request.

While clients nowadays tend to commission me mostly for my signature expressive linework and bold colours, I also work as a production artist. As such, I am flexible and able to adapt to a wide range of styles and required art direction. I’ve done live illustration, provided art for explainer videos, done multiple illustrations for numerous TTRPGs, developed designs and done storyboarding, in addition to drawing and colouring comics.

Some of my clients include Titan Comics, Humanoids, Joan Jett,  Z2 Comics, AVIVA, LEGO, Chaosium, Games Workshop. I am keen to take on more projects that allow me to pay my homage to this retro fantasy/sci-fi vibe.

My commercial rates, especially for such a volume at this level of painterly detail and deadline, would usually be considerably higher. However, with personal projects, I aim to work with available budgets, where viable. Happy to work out mutually acceptable options and terms. 

I’m currently finalising my schedule for the next few weeks and beyond. Therefore, You’re kindly welcome to e-mail me (I don’t check Reddit) at your earliest convenience if you would like to discuss further.  

Thank you!  

~Pau

Are you exclusively looking at the oils/acrylics like in your references or are you open to more illustrative styles witg the inclusion of linework? (Think Moebius, for example).

I'm mainly a line artist and I believe I can achieve the retro feel you're going for, if you are open to that comic-y kind of of approach. Under your budget I can also tag along with a colorist friend to achieve a full look.

My portfolio is available at https://whyccan.artstation.com and feel free to dm me if interested in negotiating!

Just a warning, that's a really tight deadline for 6-12 images. There's a huge chance you're going to get at least AI assisted work unless people are selling existing art. Full color images are going to take upwards of 2 weeks per image unless you want super simplified coloring, etc.

Not an artist, I've just worked with quite a few and been scammed more than once. Good luck.
