Kinekine Glade
Colorist Hiring Thread


STARTS: NOW
ENDS: NOW OVER

Hired So Far:
1. Antigra
2. Ocearen
3. [ astra ]


Hello, and welcome to Kinekune Glade's colorist hiring thread! I am looking for about three colorists to hire for my shop, because my coloring skills are lacking at best and my lineart editing skills are next to zero. If hired, you will of course be paid for your work!

The shop is not yet open, and will probably open when at least one colorist is hired - however, the hiring thread will stay open until three colorists are hired, even if the shop opens before then. I still need certs and banner graphics, so it will not open until those are made.

REQUIREMENTS:

1. Must be friendly and able to work well with others. Keep the drama out!
2. All the files are in .psd format, so you must be able to use a program that supports these files. A tablet is not required - only your talent will be judged!
3. Must be able to produce high quality work. We want to give the best to our customers!
4. Must be able to do lineart edits - sometimes simple, sometimes heavy! Edits must match well with the provided lineart and shading templates.
5. This will be a full time job. I do not mind if you work at other shops, however, please be sure you will be able to handle working here as well. Don't try to take on too much work!
6. Remember that you will be working with a team. For some events you may be asked to color an auction pet, or you may be asked to color a raffle pet... I will keep track of who does what at each event to keep things fair and alternate at each event.
7. Any pets that start as a baby or teen must have all their stages - excluding elder - fully colored and finished, before it will be sold. This means if you are asked to do two flatsale pets starting as babies, you will have to finish all three stages for both pets before the flatsale. This is to avoid problems if something comes up and you are unable to finish coloring stages for pets that are due for growth.

RULES:

1. Check the drama at the door.
2. Please don't be a sore loser if you are not picked. I can't pick everyone, so I have to be selective.
3. Obviously, do not steal the lineart! I paid for it, and you didn't draw it.
4. Please do not PM entries to me. Post them in the thread! I promise your entry will not be missed.
5. Do not discourage others from entering!

HOW TO APPLY:

When you apply, please post the following form in this thread. You must provide:

1. At least two coloring samples using the lineart provided. Feel free to submit more samples if you wish.
2. At least two lineart edits using the lineart provided. I would prefer that at least one is done without using your colored samples (so you'll be coloring three total). Remember that I won't see much of your skills if you only do minor, small edits, so have fun with it! Feel free to submit more samples if you wish.

LINEART:

Important Note: There are no shading templates on the lineart being provided for the hiring thread. This is because I want to see how you would shade the lineart. However! If you are hired, shading templates are already on the lineart, so you will not have to deal with them.

on the female, the line-art edited ears have the old line drawn on it to show what i did. (the male's tail doesnt have the original cuz it would have covered the design)

the male's tail is also kinda bad... if i spent a tad more time on it, i can make it better. if you'd like me to, let me know and i will.

*edit*
here's one more line-edit that i did.

STAGES:

These are all the breeds and stages that will be offered in the shop. The examples were colored by me, and lineart is by Air Song. At some point in time, after the shop is opened for a little bit, I want to try and commission anthros of all the versions... plus another special, secret stage!
