Gargantuan illustration of a charizard redesigned in the style of a monster hunter elder dragon. There are 4 hunters attacking him and their pikapalico is readying a voltorb bomb to throw. There is so much stuff in there, I spent a damn year on this. I'm exhausted.

Can anyone recommend a decent 2D artist who’s open for recurring paid work? Looking for someone I can work with on and off as my game develops, who doesn't use generative ai. DMs are open!

I'm Christina I've been a professional illustrator since 2005 and a specialist game artist/ art director since 2009. I've worked for Mojang (on Minecraft), Netflix Games, WB Games I've been unemployed for 8+ months. I'm tired of rejection letters. Please help me find a paying project #gamedev
