Hi everyone!

I’m Ylara, and I’m just starting to get involved with the indie game scene as an artist.

A quick note: My native language is Chinese, and I’ve lived in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Italy. For clear communication, I sometimes use ChatGPT to help translate my thoughts into English, so if any of my messages sound a bit AI-ish or formal, that’s why!

Right now, I’m looking to build up some experience and get a better feel for how teams work together. So if you have any small art needs or random tasks—think:

• Icons / item art

• Minor props or environment bits

• Placeholder assets

• Simple UI pieces

• Quick sketches or color blocking

• Character busts / temporary portraits

...I’d love to help out, no charge.

I’m happy to pick up the kind of “background” or “odds & ends” work that usually gets pushed to the bottom of the list. I’m pretty quick and open to feedback, and mostly just want to connect with cool developers, practice collaborating, and see how projects are put together behind the scenes.

Not worried about payment or revenue share at this stage, just interested in learning and growing. If you’re willing to chat a bit about your workflow and project, that’d be awesome!

DM me or reply here if you have something that needs an extra hand—even if it seems too small or boring to post about.

Thanks for reading!
