General Discussion / Sprite artist/animator wanted for serious project
« on: August 17, 2005, 12:47:05 pm »
We are currently looking for people to make generic, featureless, nude, shaded, character doll spritesheets for a variety of races.
Example (found with google):
(Click to enlarge. This is just an example, this does not set the style of the project)
The image above lacks a few things that would be needed in the spritesheets you would make:
8 frame animations (more is no problem, less is a nono)
8 directions
The size should be the same, meaning: 32x64pixel character boxes, certain actions/races may require larger (or smaller) boxes, which is fine.
As for actions, the following would be needed for each race:
Lying down
Standing
Walking
Running
Ready for battle (Idle battle stance)
Attack (Sweeping, left to right, or other way, doesent matter)
Attack (Cleaving, hands behind head holding weapon, cleave down head to toe on enemy)
Attack (Thrusting, spear, thrust forward)
Casting magic 1
Casting magic 2 (Needs two different animations)
Dying
The attack actions should begin and end in the 'Ready for battle' stance.
A spritesheet should hold all frames and actions in all 8 directions. One spritesheet per race.
And as already stated, characters should be genderless and nude. In short, skin colored featureless characters.
The races are as follows:
Darkelves
Dragons
Dwarfs
Elves
Gnomes
Goblins
Humans
Minotaurs
Ogres
Orcs
Rastakrok
Titans
Treants
Trolls
Concept art of some races can be found here
Dolls should be as normal as possible, we do not want chibi (the example image is too much like a chibi) The doll should have as "human" like proportions as possible. This, ofcourse, doesent apply for the non-humanlike races.
Additional information about the game and the engine in general can be found here
We are willing to pay for the job done, however noone on our team has any general idea of how much this kind of work would be worth.
If you want payment it is arrangeable, but do note that we dont have anywhere near unlimited funds.
A price proposal would be nice to have, should it be you want to be paid.
If you are interessted, either post a reply here, pm or email: MuhDev@gmail.com
