Total work summary:
Bird - 3 sprites no larger than 17x11 pixels
Lava (optional) - 1 sprite of width between 16-18 pixels and height at least 32 pixels, must tile vertically

Work description:

I require a sprite of a bird in the style of an elongated flappy bird, with 3 frames of animation (wing up, wing out, wing down)
width can be 16 or 17 pixels, height can be 10 or 11 pixels.

I would like the colors to be more like a realistic hawk (ex: black/brown/white etc. palette is up to you)

I have a (poorly drawn) mock up for you to use if you desire.

In addition, I could also use a single vertically tileable lava sprite (say, 16 or 18 pixels wide, height at least 32 pixels) which I will use to give the appearance of lava flowing down from above.

This is for a simple mobile game which is almost complete (no, it is not another flappy bird clone :P )

Payment: I will pay as soon as you complete the work or however you normally accept payment.

Price Range: Whatever you feel is fair. I don't expect to pay a whole lot though, since the job is pretty small.

Time Line: Can pay right now - so as soon as you're done!
