Character Artist

We are a critically acclaimed Swedish game development studio with about 200 experienced and skilled employees. We are most

well-known for developing the Warhammer: Vermintide franchise, but have also helped develop a number of AAA titles and we launched

the highly anticipated game Warhammer 40,000: Darktide.

We have grown quite a bit over the last few years, but we still embrace the same values that we started with. We want to build the

best first person co-op games together, in an approachable, fun and passion-driven way.

As a member of the Character Art Team, you will help us in creating gritty and believable characters and creatures, developing our

pipeline, and integrating content into the engine. You have a passion for character art and are always on the lookout for how

characters can be pushed to the next level while applying your skills in high-poly sculpting, modeling, texturing, as well as hair

grooming. As a senior member of our team, you will be expected to contribute at a more advanced level, whilst also guiding and

mentoring less experienced colleagues.

You should have a portfolio showcasing compelling characters that demonstrate strong fundamentals in anatomy, sculpting, and

texturing. You possess a strong understanding of the technical side of character art and know how to deliver characters that meet

our high artistic and technical standards. Having excellent communication skills, a proactive mindset, and the ability to

collaborate in a team environment is a must.

At Fatshark, all members of the team are involved in decision-making. We are a small enough team to be agile, but big enough to

realize great ideas together. In this highly creative environment, collaboration is key. It’s crucial that independence and the

ability to manage one's own time efficiently is paired with strong teamwork skills.

• Actively improve skill set and abilities by staying on top of industry trends and techniques, evaluating competitive products,

learning new software packages and traditional art methods

• Ability to craft high-quality 3D characters, with a great understanding of efficient UV layout, PBR pipeline, 3D topology and

engine parameters/optimizations
