Hi all, first thank you for all the help and support I've gotten from here. You guys are great.

I am having a kickstarter soon to raise money to overhaul the art for my game, which visually I would like to be very close to Chronotrigger. The goal for my kickstarter will be heavily dictated by some of the quotes and estimations here. This is not a paid job offer YET, but will turn into one (or more likely, several).

Let's start with two questions. What kind of price would you put on a Chronotrigger character sprite with 4 walking animations and 4 emotes?
What kind of price would you charge for 5 characters done in this way? What kind of price would you charge for 10 characters done this way?

Second question, the battles will be turn based Final Fantasy style setups. How much would you charge for something like this below character (same size, detail and complexity of movement) with 4 attack animations and one idle animation? Again how much would you charge for 5 characters done this way, and how much would you charge for 10 characters done this way?

I am unfortunately not an artist, so I apologize if I have not made my needs clear enough. Please ask any questions here or in a private message that might help you find a cost estimate.

Thank you for your time!

I'm sorry I may not have been clear before. I do not expect anyone to work for free, and I will happily pay well for work done.

When I say this is not a paid work offer yet, I mean that based on what average prices are I will be deciding how much work to give. Once I get a decent idea of how much it will cost for what I want then I will know how much art I can afford. Thank you!

I'm not sure if you've already gotten any replies, but I sent you an estimate of what I might charge as a Private Message. I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

**************

Upon rereading your post I note I only responded to you about your battle animations.

As far as the walking animations and emotes...
How many animation frames would these be and how large would the sprites be?
