I need someone who can make Sprites of Brand New Pokemon. I will give you a Text Description of the Pokemon and you need to be able to make the sprite. You must be familiar with Pokemon. You need to know all the factors when creating / spriting Pokemon. I am looking to hire just one spriter (so the spriting style stays the same). Each Pokemon you make for me will require the following: - A main "Front Sprite". - A "Back Sprite" - And a Icon Sprite which is Animated. Here are examples of official Pokemon: http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/pkfrlg149.png http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/rsback/rsback149.png http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpiconani/dpiconani149.gif (Above in the right order are: the Front Sprite, then the Back Sprite, and then finally the Icon Sprite). If you are familiar with Pokemon and also meet my requirements PM or Post some of your Pokemon Examples. My budget for this is not to large as this is a None - Profitable Project. Thanks, BlueEew. |

How many sprites do you need, exactly? I make a lot of Pokemon sprites and would be willing to do a certain amount. Also, more info on the project please? |

The Project is a: Pokemon Fan Based Game. It was developed on a community forum (that is no longer up) and was being developed for over two and a half years. I want to get all the Pokemon completed so I myself can then Map and Program the game. This is to say thank you to all the members who helped over the years. I am looking for around 80 Pokemon. Have you got any examples? |

| just wondering how far these 80 pokemon have already been developed; are there any design concepts, artwork etc. already or would these be from scratch? |

By "More info" I meant plot, region info, and examples of fakemon descriptions. Here are some of my examples:    + the guy in my avatar. 80 sounds like a good number. Do you have MSN or AIM? |

@BlueEew, both these artists make great Pokemons and are fine artists and you would be very lucky to have both join your team. Treat them well.

I am willing to help too. I work slow (I make each sprite fast, but I am working on a lot of projects and I cant do everything at the same time), but since this is a non profit project (kinda obvious, since otherwise Nintendo would go after you :P) I am willing to work for free. I got some samples of pokémon sprites I did here.
They are not all pixel art (in some of them I made a bigger drawing and resized it, which is considered to be npa by some artists) but they look like they are, none has more than 13 colors which is the number of colors for each pokémon on the GBA games, and they could be used in a game just like other pixel art. |

I had a look through all the sprites I already have. I now need 40 Pokemon done from scratch. There will be a total of 100 New Pokemon so 60 are done.

Contact me if your interested in my services. Nice work. I was also thinking of having some official Pokemon re-done. It is clear you can do these.

Have you got any Pokemon Sprites that are larger Pokemon? These are very good. However I would like to see some more grown Pokemon. It is 40 new Pokemon I require now. I have looked through all the sprites I had which was a couple hundred and I have chosen 60 Pokemon. These 60 will meet a newer 40 that I am paying for. This then makes a list of 100 new Pokemon for the game. I will then go through these 100 Pokemon and see which need re-doing or touching up. When these are finalized. I shall then have the back sprites and the icons made also. What I am going to do is. Is make a list of 40 Pokemon, with their types. Also with Animal / Bug / Creature descriptions. I will allow a little more time to see if there are any more spriters here. Then I will contact everyone who is interested. Thanks, BlueEew. |

I dont have any bigger ones done but I am able to make them if needed. I will try doing one as an example later today.
EDIT: 
Its design is kinda meh though. A friend of mine created it for an pokemon game we were making a long time ago. |
