Seasons Greetings,

  I am a lifelong fan of Pixel Art. I really feel like video games were at their prettiest right before the introduction of polygon and its never really caught back up. I joined the forum specifically for this job. I am making a “Dream Game” on RPG Maker MV and I want it to have a very specific Retro look.  I want it to specifically have the look of Wonder Boy in Monster World, Bubble Bobble or Rainbow Islands. Bright and vivid colors, chibi-ish style, etc.*



* I don't have a better examples of the style, but this is close enough.

This is a passion project for me but I am willing to pay. I tried finding some pixel artists on Fiverr and while the artist I have is “good” from what I’ve seen the colours are far too dull for what I want. So I figured I would pay him for the first sheet and try hunting around here.

Before I go into Sprite Sheets, I want to start with the hero Profile Pictures. I want them to all be in that Magic Japanese Chibi Style.

I have quite a number of faces I want to commission (prior to doing actual in game sprites), but for now I will start with the seven common races:

[PAID] Human Face (Male)
[PAID] Orc (Male)
[PAID] Elf (Male)
[PAID] Gnome (Male)
[PAID] Goblin (Male)
[PAID] Halfling (Male)

There is no immediate deadline, I would rather they look good than be done fast.







A single face must scale to a single face here. You guys are the pros, so I figure you know what you're doing.



Thank you in Advance!
RetroBoy

Hey!

I dig that sort of style, something kind of like this but higher resolution?

(where the hell was the "upload image" feature?!)
