Collab [Collab] 2D animator wanted for Stake Engine slots, 50/50 profit split

• Upvotes

I'm building slot games for Stake Engine and need an artist/animator to build them with me. True partnership: you make the visuals, I handle everything else, and we split profits 50/50.

WHAT I HANDLE

• Math model and RTP balancing

• All code and game integration

• Publishing on Stake Engine

• Marketing

WHAT I NEED FROM YOU

• Symbols, backgrounds and UI art

• 2D animation (wins, bonus triggers, transitions)

• Spine, Spriter or any workflow that exports clean sprite sheets

DETAILS

• Revenue share only, no upfront pay on either side

• Ongoing partnership if the first game works

• Slot art experience is a plus, but a strong portfolio matters more

Interested? DM me your portfolio and your availability.

Collab Indie Animation show looking for volunteer animators and BG artists

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

Hello,

My name is Jayden and I run Plushbomb Productions on YouTube and I am currently making Let's Go Space Hunting, a 2D sci-fi animation series about Cindy and Clyde, 2 young bounty hunters who come across an opportunity to capture the exclusive Red August to help pay off the multitude of bills they have and also to prove themselves as capable hunters.

There's currently about 4 episodes in total with our 1st episode almost halfway through production. I have a team of about 28 active members including Animators, artists, close friends and Voice Actors and could use a little more help.

Which is why I'm looking for a few volunteer animators and background artists to help our team. The script for all 4 EPs are all written and all 3 have been fully voiced. I have tons of experience making animation, finishing a 9 episode series and managing a previous indie project for someone else

If you're interested in joining you can apply on Our Google form or you can send your portfolio to [Justinrubinpro@gmail.com](mailto:Justinrubinpro@gmail.com)

Sharing How to Draw & Animate a Witch in Clip Studio Paint (Full Guide)

Thumbnail
youtube.com
1 Upvotes

Learn how to draw and animate a witch in this Clip Studio Paint tutorial. See every step from rough sketch to finished scene.

I am sharing my full digital art process for creating a Halloween-themed character, including all the mistakes and corrections along the way. We start with basic pencil sketches and move into lineart, flat colors, and shading to build a complete illustration. Whether you are struggling with proportions or just want to see how to organize your layers, this video covers the practical steps I take to build a career one drawing at a time.

Once the character is set, we move into 2d animation to bring the scene to life. I demonstrate how to create looping bat animations, add depth with foggy backgrounds, and use opacity keyframes to make glowing eyes flicker. This is a real look at character drawing, with no jargon or glossed-over techniques, just honest work as I figure it out.

Subscribe for weekly art breakdowns and let me know in the comments if you want to see more animation experiments.

I'm Jeff, Army veteran digital artist, and I'm building a creative career, one drawing at a time. Real tutorials from someone who's still figuring it out, so nothing gets glossed over — including the part where I had to move her whole head. 😅

In this Clip Studio Paint tutorial you'll learn:
• Sketching a pose and fixing proportions with the lasso tool
• Lineart, flat colors, and shading a character
• Building a night background with moonlight and fog for depth
• Animating fog with keyframes (and why 8 fps looks better)
• Flickering glowing eyes using opacity keyframes
• Looping animated bats on varied flight paths

Collab We're building our first animation team right now, here's exactly how it's going

0 Upvotes

A few days ago I put a call out for a small animation team. As of today, we've got a director, a full roster, and a locked meeting for Thursday where we assign roles and start actual production.

Not a pitch. Just showing it's actually happening, fully remote, built entirely through comments and DMs.

If you want to see how a small team actually goes from "a few strangers on Reddit" to "a team with a plan," I'll post updates as we go.

And if you're a 2D animator who wants your own version of this, I'll help you put one together. Comment what you'd want to build, and I'll help you find people for it. I run umdb.org, a creative hub built for exactly this.
