My name is Dan and I am building an web based game called http://www.bloodarmy.com - BloodArmy . I am looking for artist to sell licensing rights to their current artwork of icons and characters. We are looking for a military based theme.
I am also looking for artist to create icons (common inventory items) and characters. If you have military based characters for sale, please send me an email or answer this post. Please show me the characters or icons and tell me your price. I am not looking to have exclusive ownership to the graphics. I do not think I can afford the hundreds of icons I will have to purchase. So I need licensing right under my company name. Here is a list of the artwork I am looking for.
- Military characters
- soldiers - spys - medics - leaders - demolitions - communications
- Military Weapons
- machine guns - pistols - knifes - rifles - grenades - explosives - ammo
- Military clothes
- camo shirts - camo pants - hats, helmets - boots - gloves - bullet proof vest
- Medical Items
- bandaids - medic bag
- Military Ranks
- Communication items
- binoculars - night vision goggles - maps - compass - GPS - cell phone
- Food
- canteens - MRE's (meals ready to eat, google it) - fruit - vegatables
- Awards
- trophies - medals - ribbons
As you can see, alot to do.
- Company Info: One Step Solutions, Corp.
- Job Info: Build icons, and character or purchase existing ones.
- Paid or not? and salary info?: Paid

If you could be specific about the sizes (32x32, 64x64, etc) and style (cartoony, realistic, blocky, etc) it would certainly help.

Sizes: 32 x 32 sounds fine Style: realistic
Who did the counterstrike collection? I want those.....

for the set of 10 i would charge about £16, thats because im in uk.
online currency converter makes that about 30$, im new to this
aswell, we can negotiate when the items are finished, if your
interested.
this is all hyperthetical

Well, I might be able to help, it sounds interesting. But, what
kind of view should the sprites be in? Front like Shark's?
I don't think I'm comfartable spriting in that style.

No offense Spymp4, but those aren't really good...
Besides... weren't you banned? Oh wait, that was Spymp3 
Anyway, I have nothing to do now so I'll give a shot at something too.
I'm gonna start working on the communication items now (binoculars,
night vision goggles, maps, compass, GPS and cell phone).
And you know what, if I actually finish them you can have them for free

Ive got some questions, if permitted...
Are you still searching for pixel work?
About how much work have you bought from these forums?
Is your project still on work?
What kind of game youre working on? (FPS, RPG, RTS...)
Could I see some screenshots of it?
WHich is the use you will be giving to the icons and characters?
Thats all. If youre still willing to accept work, and to pay for it, I can send you some good quality icons and characters. Also, if youre looking for a concept artist, I can do that too.

Yes I am, currently I am using Jan (Riva), which just completed 8 icons or so for me, which I just paid for. I sent money via western union. If all goes well, I will be getting more icons shortly.

Just from Jan so far.

I am still working on the project, yes.

I am not sure on what the game type is, it is an online strategy game played through the browser based on a military theme.

Thanks very much. Ill post through pm an icon to you to see if it matches quality and if its acceptable by you .
BTW, that game sounds interesting. Im really looking forward to it .
EDIT: because you already used Riva's icons, Im going to do the icons of the size he made his icons, so that they all (if you get to use mine) are of the same size.
