Game Art Director | Stylized 3D Characters | Unity & Unreal

Stylized 3D characters for indie games, from the first sketch to a rigged character running in your engine 🕹️ I'm Nico, game art director at Quest Fox Studio. With our team of artists, a rigger and an engineer, we've made characters and art for Steam games such as Blue Prince, Door Kickers 2 and Zoria: Age of Shattering. What you get: • Characters and creatures in your game's style: hand-painted, cartoon, anime-style or realistic • Concept art and 2D character design • Game-ready models: sculpt, retopology, UVs and textures • Body and face rigs, with expressions and lip-sync shapes • Exports checked in Unity or Unreal before they reach you We also build our own tools: the Archetype Character Generator, a modular character system on the Unity Asset Store. We made both the art and the code. So we know what happens to a character after it leaves Blender: rigs that hold up in animation, materials that work in URP and HDRP, modular parts that swap cleanly. Games we've worked on: Raw Fury / Blue Prince KillHouse Games / Door Kickers 2 Tiny Trinket Studio / Zoria: Age of Shattering Dream Primer / Astera (upcoming) How we like to start: one paid character or a small first milestone, so you see the quality before you commit to the rest.
