Roblox R15 Character Artist + Animator/VFX Artist for Mobile Football Game

I am developing a **mobile-focused arcade football game on Roblox using R15 characters**.

I am looking for a 3D artist who is experienced with **Roblox R15 characters, character assets, animation, and VFX**.

The project will be milestone-based. Each milestone must be reviewed and approved before moving to the next one.

If the work and collaboration go well, there will be **additional paid work** for more characters, cosmetics, animations, and visual effects.

## MILESTONE 1 — Custom R15 Character + Football Kit

Create:

1. Custom R15 character body
2. Simple jersey
3. Shorts with knee-high socks
4. Football boots

### Character

* Rigid, not skinned
* Must work correctly with standard Roblox R15 animations
* Standard Roblox R15 joints and attachments
* Include HairAttachment, FaceFrontAttachment, HatAttachment, and hand grip attachments
* Flat foot soles
* Face texture included
* Minimal undershorts/base layer on the body
* Approximately **4,000–6,000 triangles**

Garment mapping:

* **Jersey:** UpperTorso, LeftUpperArm, RightUpperArm

* **Boots:** LeftFoot, RightFoot

Requirements:

* Garment meshes must match the corresponding R15 limb position/origin
* Approximately 2–5% offset from the body

# MILESTONE 2 — 3 Football Animations + VFX

This is an important part of the project.

I need **3 custom R15 football animations**, each combined with appropriate **VFX**.

I will provide the exact action, gameplay purpose, and references for each animation before work begins.

The artist should be able to handle both:

* **R15 character animation**
* **VFX creation and integration**

The animations should feel:

* Fast and responsive
* Stylized and arcade-like
* Powerful and visually satisfying
* Easy to read from normal gameplay camera distance
* Suitable for mobile devices
* Compatible with the custom R15 character

VFX should enhance the animation without covering the character or making gameplay difficult to read.

Examples could include effects such as:

* Energy trails
* Impact effects
* Ball effects
* Speed effects
* Ground impacts
* Short bursts/particles

The exact VFX style will be discussed before each animation is created.

Animations and VFX must be delivered in a format that can be properly implemented inside **Roblox Studio**.

## Art Direction

The game is a **stylized arcade football game**, not a realistic football simulator.

Assets and animations should feel:

* Clean
* Modern
* Stylized
* Recognizable during gameplay
* Optimized for Roblox/mobile

I am also open to the artist's creative ideas. If you think an animation, VFX, character shape, or design could work better for the game, I am happy to discuss it before production.

Reference images are **style references only**, not designs to copy.

## Technical Requirements

* Roblox R15 experience
* Roblox Studio-ready assets
* Mobile optimized
* Clean topology
* Proper UVs
* Correct Roblox scale/orientation
* Minimal clipping during normal R15 animations
* Clean animation loops/transitions where applicable
* VFX optimized for mobile performance
* Editable source files included

No normal maps or PBR maps are required. Use baked albedo textures only.

---

## Deliverables

For 3D assets:

* Blender source files (.blend preferred)
* Roblox-ready FBX files
* PNG textures
* 512x512 transparent preview render for each asset

For animations/VFX:

* Editable animation/source files
* Roblox-ready animation files/data
* Editable VFX setup/assets
* Any required textures or particle assets
* Clear instructions/files required to import and test them in Roblox Studio

---

## Original Work Only

All work must be original.

Do not use:

* Existing UGC assets
* Real football club designs
* Nike, Adidas, Puma, etc. branding
* Copyrighted characters
* Copyrighted designs

I need full rights to use and modify the delivered assets in my Roblox game.

## When Applying

Please send:

1. Examples of **Roblox animations and VFX** you have created.
2. Examples of Roblox character/3D assets.
3. Your experience with **R15**.
4. Whether you can handle both **animation and VFX**.
5. Whether you can help with the creative/design side instead of only copying references.
6. Estimated price for **Milestone 1**.
7. Estimated price for **Milestone 2 — 3 animations with VFX**.

I am looking for someone who could potentially continue working with me long-term on additional **animations, VFX, characters, clothing, boots, hairstyles, and other football customization assets**.
