BUILT BY
ARTISTS,
RUN FOR PRODUCTION.
Rope Studios started with a problem every producer knows: outsourced art that looks right in a render but arrives needing cleanup. We built the studio around the opposite: small scoped batches, sign-off at every stage, and assets that work in your pipeline the day they land.
EXTERNAL ART PRODUCTION FOR GAME TEAMS
Your team should spend its time on the game, not on fixing vendor assets. We take on hard-surface work (weapons, vehicles, props and environment kits) and build it to your art bible, polycount budgets and naming rules.
Rope Studios is a founder-led core team supported by trusted contract artists. We work with indie, AA and AAA teams, from a single test asset to recurring production, and scale resources to the scope of each project.

OUR VALUES
Specs Before Speed
Polycount, texel density and LOD targets are agreed at the brief, then built to. Fast delivery that needs rework is not fast.
A Direct Line to the Artist
You talk to the lead and artists making your assets on Discord, Slack or email. No account-manager layer filtering feedback.
Remote, With Overlap
Based in New Delhi, with working hours that overlap US, UK and European teams, and written check-ins at every milestone.
Delivered Ready to Use
LODs, clean UVs, collision and an asset sheet with every delivery, so your team imports the asset instead of fixing it.
