Who we are

We are a tight-knit team, and are developing A Township Tale full time. A Township Tale is the industry leading VR MMO, which has a massive Discord community of 73 thousand people.

What we are looking for

• Fast and diligent learner, and a good problem solver. Ability to learn and understand our pipeline is key.
• Ability to create 3D models from concept art accurately, and mathematically correct models.
• Respect for our community and the art you’ll be learning how to create.
