Hey, Rinima from Harmonic Dreams here.

We're looking for a 2D pixel artist to work on a 2D RPG horror game. This game already had concept art, music and story in place. This will also be Harmonic Dreams first published game.

It will be Full HD 1920x1080 and developed in Unity.

The work-load is 3 sprite sheets and 13+ (as a minimum) tilesets, the size being 64x64 pixels for the sprite sheets and 64x64 for the tilesets. I would like this being done in the next 6-8 months.

I would prefer a pixel artist who is semi-experiences and has at least 2+ years experience in pixel art (not necessarily working on games, but have practiced pixel art for that amount of time).
Fluency in English is key for communication and preferably used Skype.

The amount I am willing to pay is:
£80+ ($113+ in USD) for the sprite sheets
£150+ ($210+ in USD) for the tilesets.
Though I am willing to pay more if the artist applying has an art style I really like and charges more.

This is my email: charlottehodgson256@hotmail.co.uk, please drop me an email if interested.

This is the sort of style I am looking for
(but more pixelated)

I might be interested but I just had a question quick question. When you say 100x100 per tileset, do you mean for the whole tileset or for a single tile?
100x100 is kind of small for a tileset but 100x100 is really large for a single tile

Hey Matwek, it's per single tile.

100x100 is massive for a pixel art tile. Have you considered having smaller tiles but using more of them? You get much more variety that way.

Also how many tiles would you need to make up a £150 tileset? As I think your budget is likely to be stretched to the limit

I am thinking of downsizing yea, 64x64 would probably be a better size.

And about 3 on the smallest tileset and 10 on the biggest (like I said, I'm willing to pay more if the artist's pay is more, so I'm not to worried about budget, the price there is a base price, but isn't set in stone).

EDIT: Just to let anyone on this thread know, I've now edited the OP to reflect on changes.

Sorry for all the questions, but do you mean 3 tiles per small tileset?
As in 3 64x64 tiles to make up a single tileset?

Because that example you linked to is pushing at least 30-35 64x64 tiles just on that single screen grab

Yes, that's what I mean.

The single screen grab I provided was more of an example of style rather than quantity, none of the tilesets I will be needing will have to be that complex in terms of diversity.
