So how did you find out about Cloud Imperium? I understand Chris was doing a speech somewhere or something.
TL;DRPeterson found Star Citizen through Chris Roberts' Reddit AMA while in a dental waiting room, emailed his portfolio though no environment artist role was advertised, and was invited in.
Actually, I found out about Star Citizen... I was learning the CryEngine myself, and I was wanting to go more of the indie route. And I was actually at the dental office, in the waiting room, and I was reading this AMA on Reddit, and it was like, I'm Chris Roberts, I did Wing Commander, and I was just like, oh, this might be interesting. So I clicked on the link, and I started reading it. And everything that Chris was saying was pretty much aligning with what I'd want to do. He was using the CryEngine, he was doing a Kickstarter fund, he was doing sci-fi, and I love the fidelity of all the graphics and everything he was using. He was bringing in the Oculus Rift and everything else. And I was thinking to myself, yeah, this is great, this is exactly what I want to do. So I found the website and they're like, if you want to work at Cloud Imperium Games, email us here. They weren't really looking for an environment artist or anything, but I emailed them, showed my portfolio, and they were like, we love your work, come on down. So here I am.
