I have updated my portfolio, and I am currently open for further freelance work!

@Mobotropolis Thank you! They actually weren't images which was odd, as the satellite piece was the first! Removed them anyway, how weird ?

Ellie Cooper Art Commissions I am an experienced concept artist in the Game and Film/TV industry. I specialise in environments, keyframes, architecture, creature design and characters. I am currently looking for long-term freelance projects but happy to do short ones too. Alternatively, I am happy to just do some black and white sketches or some colour grading/storyboarding/etc - just get in touch! I have included my work below and my website, please feel free to email me, message me on ArtStation or on Discord to discuss the project and rates.

Prices on Application I am happy to just have a chat with you to give you a quote - please do not hesitate just to ask.

Coming from an artist, if you pay upfront anything I send you whether its sketches, half-finished pieces, etc then its your property as soon as I send it to you. Sorry to hear that this has happened to you, its not on really.

It's been a while, but I've been trying to improve my storytelling, design and rendering skills. Somedays I feel like I get it, other days I feel like a mess but hey ho!

A work colleague actually told me to use CodeAcademy to learn Python and other languages, not just HTML and CSS. I would recommend learning whatever code that you will be using in your game, as that would be the logical choice to me, but perhaps there is something easier to learn that lets you just drift into what your game uses a lot easier? Might be worth researching that? Also try to find yourself a coding community, or someone you can ask questions. Artists do this really well, where you bounce WIP's, get critique, ask questions, etc so perhaps find someone or something like that? Or someone to keep you motivated as thats the hardest thing, learning on your own. But with your other admin being a coder that may be easy to find! I hope that helps even a little bit. Good luck and don't give up!

NPC for a future game I have in mind - it was a redo of another concept I did about 4 months ago.

@Makazu Thank you very much!

Work in progress - Charlie the 'Knitting Fish'. Who knits with his front claws in the ocean lol

STATUS: Open Hello everyone! My name is Ellie, and I am currently a Concept Artist student. I am proficient in 2D, 3D and pixels. I am currently avaliable for some commission work! At this time I am only opening 1-2 spaces, but once those are done I will reopen. I am looking to fill my portfolio up with art pieces/jobs. I am happy to work long-term or short-term for you - whichever suits. ArtStation - Discord: #8157 (Ellie) Prices on Application I am happy to just have a chat with you to give you a quote - please do not hesitate just to ask. Examples Environments: Characters/NPCs (Including full-bodies and Portraits) I am happy to do OCs, NPCs, or anything else. I am not limited to created characters, game characters, etc. This means I am happy to create an original character for you, all the way to doing fanart. Other I am happy to take on a challenge, so please let me know if you have anything you want me to tackle. Below are some examples of creatures, hard-surface objects, etc. 1hr Horse Study 1hr Horse Study How do I work? At the beginning we will have a chat through a private channel about what exactly you want, what style, etc. I will then tell you the specific price for that, I cannot give an exact price until I know what you would like. Once we have settled this, I will ask for payment up front. From this I will then go away, gather some references and also sketches for you to review - I may come to you with references first or with both sketch and reference. Depending on what I am doing for you, I may show you multiple thumbnails of your idea or just one. For example: I will send you something like above. This applies for everything I do for you, whether its environment, characters, etc I will send you a few thumbnails to choose. Once you choose which one you like best, I will get to work. While doing my work I will keep in contact with you, whether thats by email, Discord or here. Throughout the progress I will send you screenshots, asking for your honest opinion. If you don't like what I have done, then thats fine! I will go back and redo whatever you aren't a fan of. Once I have finished the image, you are free to use it however you want. All I ask is that I may show it on my portfolio. If you are trying to keep your game a secret from the public, then I am happy to negotiate this (i.e may I show it privately in interviews, may I release it once the game has been made public, etc) Previous Clients - Tremder If you are interested in my commissions, please either reply here, email, PM or message me/add me on Discord. I am happy to just have a chat with you to give you a quote - please do not hesitate just to ask.

I got it recently too. Found a few bugs, still trying to get used to it but it could be useful for connecting to others I suppose! I should just be Ellie Cooper on there, but not sure how it all works at the moment with usernames.

Got a few to put up here. Been away for a while trying to get university finished! Trying to work on my concept art - so making environments, characters and 'stories'. Got a few more but I will try not to spam ^-^

Finished this piece off tonight ^-^ Took about 2 days on and off.

A project for university, based off of my own concept (see below) The idea is that he is a 'Dragon Hunter'. First Concept for the Dragon Hunter. Second Concept art (made him more realistic, researched better for the crossbow i.e guns, crossbows, etc to see how I could realistically have him fire it. Also changed a few things, more armour, etc. Details of the sculpt. Details of the sculpt. I used ZBrush and 3ds Max for this project. I have already learned so much. I think if I redid the project it would come out even better which is exciting as I have one more character to get done over this month. Enjoy!
