Our game art projects
Portfolio categories
2D game art
Concept art, character design, environment art, icons, items, and UI assets for mobile and casual titles.
3D game art
Character modelling, environment production, hard-surface assets, weapons, and props with clean topology and LOD chains.
Concept art and UI
Style guides, concept boards, and interface design ready for engine integration in Unity UGUI or Unreal UMG.
What goes into production-ready game art
Production-ready game art is more than visual quality. Each asset must match the project's engine budget, file formats, and pipeline conventions. Game-Ace builds character models with agreed polycount and LOD chains, exports 2D animation with state and atlas configuration, and validates every asset inside Unity or Unreal Engine before delivery. Style alignment is confirmed through a paid trial task on most engagements, so the visual direction is locked before full production starts.
Art projects under NDA
Many art projects are delivered under client NDA and cannot be shown publicly. iGaming slot art, co-development asset work, and unreleased mobile projects are typical examples. Studios evaluating Game-Ace as an art partner can request sector-specific portfolio references during the initial consultation, including production scope, asset counts, and style range matched to their pipeline.
Words from our clients
GSN Games is one of the global leaders in mobile social casino games.
Program-Ace and GSN Games have been working closely together on the development of several online games.
Game-Ace’s support was integral to the success of this project. Without them, the client wouldn’t have been able to complete the work on time.
They were responsive and their work was high quality – the client rarely had to share constructive criticism.
Game-Ace has successfully integrated with the in-house development team and has earned more responsibility as the engagement has prospered.
By quickly adapting to a sophisticated technology stack, they have helped to increase product quality and reduce an extensive task backlog.

How an art engagement works
1.
Brief and references
Share the project, style references, engine, and required asset count. We review the visual direction and pipeline.
2.
Style alignment trial
A paid trial task confirms the style match before full production scales. Source files transfer at trial close.
3.
Pipeline setup
Polycount, LOD, texture budgets, file formats, and naming conventions are agreed before production begins.
4.
Production
Assets are produced in sprint cycles with milestone review, validated in your target engine.
5.
Integration QA
Each batch is validated inside Unity or Unreal Engine against the agreed budgets and review criteria.
6.
Handover
Source files in PSD, FBX, Maya, ZBrush, or Substance Painter formats transfer to the client with full IP ownership.
What clients receive
- Source files. All art in editable source format (PSD, FBX, Maya, ZBrush, Substance Painter) with layered organisation.
- Engine-ready exports. Assets configured to your engine standards (Unity prefabs, Unreal blueprints, or material setups).
- Animation state sets. Spine project files, frame-by-frame sequences, or 3D animation clips matched to your animation controller.
- Style guide and documentation. Visual references, naming conventions, and pipeline notes for future asset extension.
- Validation reports. Polycount, draw call, and texture-budget confirmations per asset against the agreed targets.
- IP transfer confirmation. Written IP transfer covering all delivered art at engagement close.

Art Portfolio FAQ
Game-Ace artists cover stylised mobile, cartoon, realistic, semi-realistic, iGaming, and casino themes. The team adapts to the client style guide, and the trial task locks the visual direction before full production starts. Style range across the portfolio spans casual mobile work to PC environment art.
A paid trial task is run on most engagements. The client provides references, and the team produces one or two assets matched to the visual direction. The trial output is reviewed against the style guide and engine requirements before full production scales.
3D art handover includes Maya or Blender scene files, ZBrush sculpts where relevant, Substance Painter texture sets, FBX exports, and any custom shader source. File organisation and naming follow the agreed pipeline conventions for handover.
Mobile budgets are confirmed during pipeline setup before production. Typical targets include:
- Polycount budgets defined per asset type and tier.
- Texture atlas size agreed against the target device matrix.
- Draw call counts validated in Unity Profiler or Unreal Insights.
NDA is signed before any project detail is shared. iGaming slot art and unreleased mobile projects routinely ship under strict NDA and are not shown publicly. Production scope, asset counts, and style range can be discussed under mutual NDA for sector-specific portfolio reference.
Art outsourcing runs as a standalone engagement or as part of a full-cycle production. When integrated, the art team aligns with the engineering and QA pipelines so assets validate cleanly in the target engine. Co-development on existing projects is also supported.
