BattleGroup42 Looking for new Recruits

Are you an animator or skinner with experience? If so BG42 is looking for you.

Animators should have experience of working with bones and skeletons in 3DSMax. The aim is to create and improve animations for all areas of BG42, primarily for small-arms.

Skinners should have experience of skinning from UVW unwraps. Our skinners will be looking out for attention to detail, weathering and the skill to match or improve upon our current range of skins. The ability to work with normal maps is a distinct advantage.

In both cases there is an introductory period so you and the team can get together, see each others work and make sure everyone is happy!
