Hello,

We are an independent two-person team based in France, working on a tabletop roleplaying game we have been developing for several years. The setting blends medieval folklore, gothic horror, and apocalyptic dark fantasy. Playtesting is ongoing, the manuscript is well underway, and we are preparing a Kickstarter campaign followed by a full commercial release in print and digital. This is a serious long-term project, not a hobby publication, and illustration is a central pillar of the work.

We intend to treat the artists we collaborate with as genuine creative partners, in terms of recognition, fair compensation, and creative freedom.

We are now opening paid commissions and would love to hear from artists whose work resonates with the direction we are building.

The visual direction

We are looking for painterly dark fantasy with a strong sense of atmosphere, weight, and physicality. The reference images attached give the clearest sense of the direction. If your work feels close to this register, in mood, tone, or approach, we want to hear from you.

The references are credited to their respective artists and shown as illustrations of the direction we are looking for, not for copying: Dariusz Kieliszek, Artem Demura, Antonio J. Manzanedo, and Ivan Klimenko.

Scope and budget

We will be commissioning a range of pieces across the book. Our starting budget per piece, for full commercial license:

- Spot illustrations: from €100

- Half-page interior pieces: from €200

- Full-page interior pieces: from €400

- Cover: from €800

These are baseline figures. Final rates are negotiated individually based on the artist's portfolio, experience, and the scope of the specific piece. We are happy to go higher for work that justifies it. Funds are secured and available now, independently of the Kickstarter campaign.

Licensing

All work is commissioned under an exclusive commercial license covering the book, crowdfunding campaign, marketing, merchandise, and any future licensed adaptations of the game. You retain copyright and moral rights in accordance with French law, the right to display the piece in your portfolio, the right to share and use it for self-promotion on your social media and personal channels, and the right to sell physical prints to collectors. The exclusivity only restricts licensing the same work to other commercial projects. Credit is guaranteed in the book and across all promotional uses.

Payment

Payment by PayPal or bank transfer, whichever suits you best.

Long-term collaboration

This is the first book of what we hope will be a long-term universe, with supplements, expansions, and further projects to come. Artists we connect with on this first wave are the artists we would love to keep working with as the world grows.

How to apply

Drop a comment with a link to your portfolio. We will reach out by DM to artists whose work fits the project to discuss the specific brief, scope, and final rate. All experience levels welcome, established artists and emerging talents alike.

Human artists only. AI-generated portfolios will not be considered.

Thank you for reading, and we look forward to discovering your work.
