// JOB DESCRIPTION

**Responsibilities**

Create ~15-20 stylized Japanese buildings (Taisho era) for an anime-inspired multiplayer game running on Unreal Engine 5. Asset types include traditional houses (machiya), shops, estates, mountain cabins, and shrines. Buildings only, no props needed.

Technical deliverables per asset:

  • Nanite-ready static meshes (clean topology, triangulated before export)
  • 1-3 material slots max per modular piece, trim sheets preferred
  • Textures: 2K (BaseColor, Normal, ORM packed). No UDIM.
  • Consistent texel density across all modules
  • Modular workflow where applicable (reusable wall/roof/floor pieces)
  • Simple UCX_ collision meshes (convex hulls)
  • FBX export with applied transforms, smoothing set to Face
  • Pivots at modular snap points (floor-level, connection edges)
  • No LODs needed (we use Nanite), no lightmap UVs needed
  • We handle UE5 material setup and integration on our end.

    We start with 1 paid test asset to validate style and technical fit before committing to the full batch.

    **Qualifications**

  • Strong portfolio of stylized environment art (anime/hand-painted aesthetic, NOT photorealistic)
  • Proficiency in Blender or Maya
  • Experience with game-ready asset workflows (clean topology, proper UVs, trim sheets)
  • Understanding of UE5 requirements (Nanite, FBX export, UCX collisions, ORM texture packing)
  • Substance Painter / Designer experience is a plus
  • Experience with Japanese / Asian architecture style is a big plus
  • **How to Apply**

    DM me on Discord with: - Portfolio link (ArtStation preferred) with stylized environment work - Wireframe/topology examples - Your rate (per asset or hourly) - Estimated timeline for the full batch Style references will be shared upon contact. Important: I will verify the authenticity of every ArtStation profile and portfolio sent to me. Scammers, don't waste your time or mine.
