Hey SephRaz, welcome to the Resource! New spriters are always welcome, hopefully the swell people here can help you improve your skills.
A word of warning though: try not to have too high ambitions (in this case spriting 100+ guys). That's not to say you've got an absurd goal in mind, but I mean when I was your age (not long ago: I'm only 17 now) I wanted to do a whole bunch of stuff which never happened. I won't go on a rant or anything but let's just say I know that it's best to start with short-term goals before starting on big projects. For example if you want to make an MMO before you've even made a simple 2-player game then it's either going to take ages (like, really forever), or (more likely) not happen. Sort of a "walk before you can run" kind of deal.
I don't want to discourage you or anything, I mean your idea seems awesome. I just thought to give you some advice on this sort of stuff, since I've been up that alley and it wasn't very nice. Maybe your ideas are more reasonable than mine were though, I mean I wanted to make entire games in C++ by myself which I guess was pretty crazy.
In any case, I hope you have a nice warm stay here too, and good luck with your project
