About the Project: I’m creating a synthwave album called Cosmic Call and need help bringing its main character, Neon Star, to life through a full visual brand. If you’re into retro-futuristic designs, glowing neon aesthetics, and building immersive worlds, this gig is for you!
What I Need:
1. Neon Star Character Design
A sleek, genderless humanoid silhouette (no face, curves, or details).
Body made of a glowing cyan wireframe (#00FFFF) with subtle glitch effects along the edges.
Think “mysterious cosmic robot” – simple, futuristic, and glowing!
2. Logo Design
A shattered neon star with:
A dark red center (#4A0000)
Thick cyan edges (#00FFFF) and a pale cyan glow outline (#E0FFFF)
Two broken points on the star to look cracked
The Neon Star character placed inside the star
Background: Black space (#000000) with a faint cyan nebula, tiny stars, and horizontal glitch lines.
Must look sharp at any size (social media banners, merch, etc.).
3. Social Media Kit
Profile Pic: Circular version of the logo (shattered star + Neon Star)
YouTube Banner: Big space background (2560x1440) with the logo centered
Instagram/X Covers: Same spacey background, logo adjusted to fit 1080x1080 and 1500x500
Post Template: 1080x1080 design with black space background, glitch lines, stars, and a spot for text (using a retro font like Orbitron)
Extra Stuff:
Font Suggestions: Recommend a cool retro font (like Orbitron or Neuropol) for text.
Style Guide: A simple one-page PDF with my colors (I’ll provide codes), font name, and notes about the “cosmic 80s neon” mood.
What You’ll Deliver:
Neon Star character files (PNG + vector)
Logo files (PNG + vector)
All social media assets (profile pic, banners, template)
Font name + style guide PDF
Important Stuff:
NO pixelation: Everything needs to be crisp and clean.
Mood is KEY: Cosmic, dreamy, retro neon – NOT grungy or dark fantasy.
Don’t copy my old draft: I’ll share a failed attempt so you know what not to do.
Show me your work: Please include examples of neon/retro designs in your portfolio!
How to Apply:
Send me your portfolio (focus on retro/neon/cosmic work).
Briefly explain how you’d create the glowing wireframe effect for Neon Star.
