Athletics looking for talented illustrator

We are looking to fill a very specific position. We are in the process of generating a significant number of graphic assets, primarily vector. And we need some help. We’re looking for someone with serious illustration and Adobe Illustrator skills.

We may, for example, call on this person to render a crackpot JFK genie head. We would expect a detailed vector rendering on the level of:

Or, if we asked for a heavy line-art style rendering of a rockabilly hotrod, we would expect:

That’s just the tip of the iceberg. We’ve got a long list of needs: a juicy cheeseburger, scary wolf-man, 80’s keytar, gun-toting toddler, laser-tag-inspired weaponry (reference), etc.

We’re looking for someone comfortable moving between styles. Also, given the volume of assets we need generated, we’re looking for an illustrator capable of moving quickly. Each of the above graphics should require no more than a day or so to complete.

We’re flexible on location. This isn’t the type of work where we necessarily need someone here in Brooklyn, but it wouldn’t hurt.

If this is you or someone you know, please get in touch. We’ll give you the full scoop, talk turkey, etc.
