Blitzkrieg 2 Needs You!

Just late yesterday, the Blitzkrieg 2 design team announced that they require a couple of texture mappers to aid them in the development of their World War 2 mod for Generals. Here's what they had to say:

Well as the screenshots slow down now seems to be a good time to post up some team openings for Blitzkrieg 2. We're looking for talented individuals who can contribute in the following areas:

Texture Mapping!

Ideally we're looking for one or two people who know their way around Photoshop and can create original high quality/detail texture maps for use on anything from tanks to buildings to infantry. What we definitely DON'T need are people who can only photomanipulate images. While that skill may be useful we NEED any potential texture artists to be capable of creating all elements of their skins themselves. You'll be working within the team to ensure a high level of quality. This may mean your work will be modified from your submitted version, if you can't handle that please don't apply.

Preferred types of prior experience:

Web-layout creation in Photoshop
Past experience creating original skins for ANY game or for use on 3D objects.
Traditional Arts skills and a knowledge of Photoshop.

One requirement is *drumroll* knowledge of PHOTOSHOP (sorry PSP guys). This is for hassle-free exchange between team members.

If you apply please include links to past work (note I'm a lazy SOB so make it either a fast download or EASY to find, I'm a big fan of the two click rule of interface design, if I can't find my goal in 2 clicks or less there's a good chance I'll stop and go back to doing something I actually WANT to do). I accept reasonably sized zip files too (no rar or ace files please, my computer is allergic and I can assure you I won't be able to read them sorry). To apply fire me an email at proclone[at]hfx[dot]eastlink[dot]ca. (BTW figuring that one out is the "skill testing question" if you can't.. then there's a good chance you're too dumb).

Thanks, and remember the more help we get the sooner we'll be ready to release!
So what are you waiting for? If you think you meet those requirements, and have been waiting for an opportunity like this one, now is your chance!
