Hi everyone,
I'm a french web developper and a game designer. I'm currently working on a browser game. I've already found a great illustrator but I'm still looking for a great Pixel artist. That's why I post here. My game is a RTS about gods fighting each other to rule the world (Über simplified version). Each god can train 3 kind of units. Each god and unit needs a PixelArt face to be displayed on the army. That's where you help me. I'm currently using the wonderful Fugue icon collection ( http://p.yusukekamiyamane.com/ - http://p.yusukekamiyamane.com/ ) but I'm tired of using a Cactus to symbolize a Troll. So here I am... Here is one unit, the Cyclope : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/Cyclope.jpg - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/Cyclope.jpg . Creature of "Maïtos, The God of Fat". I'm currently displaying the unit in 16x16px (Fugue icon format). If you're interested, show me what you can do with this Cyclope. See ya Michel |

Just to double check what you actually want... You need a 16x16 icon to represent each unit that can be created? Do you want the icon to be a full body shot or just of the head? |

Yep 16x16 and just the head... But I'm open to other proposals.
If you think there is a better way to symbolize it, go ahead. |

The kind of pixel art I'm looking for is more like these ones :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/dog.png - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/dog.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/grey_dude.png - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/grey_dude.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/skull.png - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/skull.png Those look really clean. Don't really know why (I'm no expert). If it can help, this is a screenshot of how I use it : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/Capture.PNG - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47511759/Capture.PNG Alex Pang seems to be the closer one to this. Too bad for the colors though. I'm not gonna ask my illustrator to change the way he drew the cyclope and I like it this way. |

Nice Alex Pang !
The slimer version is what I want :) With a lighter border it would be perfect (My design is pretty light, black borders would be too strong). I currently have 4 gods (They evolve physically 3 times each) and 3 units per god (so 12 units). So it's just about 16 pixel arts for now (or 24 if you can propose me something cool with the gods physical evolutions). But if I get the success I'm expecting then there will be more and more. Now, how much will it cost me ? |
