Design new characters and costumes for the XmasFantasy universe — hopeful, luminous, story-driven.

・ Develop character concepts from written briefs (personality, role, symbolism)

・ Produce turnarounds, expression sheets and costume variations

・ Iterate with the creative director to lock final model sheets

・ Keep designs drawable for the line-art team

・ Distinct silhouettes and appealing faces across ages

・ Costume design sense (fantasy × classical / liturgical motifs a plus)

・ Clean presentation sheets

・ Openness to iterative feedback

Character sheets you designed yourself: turnaround + expressions preferred.

Remote Work. Fully remote. Work from any country, in your own studio or home setup.

Freelance Contract. Per-project or per-chapter freelance engagement — not employment. Long-term collaboration is our goal.

Flexible Schedule. Deadline-based, not clock-based. We agree on realistic delivery dates that respect your other clients.

Language. Briefs, feedback and contracts are in English. Japanese source materials come with translations.

Contracts and payments are generally processed through established international freelance platforms (milestones / escrow), while the creative director provides direction, briefs and feedback.

Step 1 — Apply. Reach out through a major freelance platform where we post the role, or via our contact form with your portfolio link.

Step 2 — Portfolio review. The creative director reviews samples for style fit with XmasFantasy. We reply to every serious application.

Step 3 — Paid trial task. A small, clearly-scoped paid test (e.g. one page, one banner set) under a standard platform contract.

Step 4 — Ongoing collaboration. Join the production roster. Work is briefed in English and paid per deliverable through the platform.
