I've been working on an Action Command turn-based RPG engine (e.g. Paper Mario, Chrono Trigger, Stick of Truth) and have come to a point where I need sprites for my characters before I continue programming.
Here is an example of a character's actions it should be able to take. The implied enemy does not need to be drawn.
Rat : Overworld ~ Walking in the four cardinal directions isometricly (think Zelda or Mario & Luigi), Jumping - this can be as simple as 1 frame for each direction iif you wish/no jump squat required In Battle ~ Rapidly scratching at an enemy with it's front paws, Biting at an enemy, Shaking it's fur to get dry (like a Dog), although it is not necessary an idle animation would be nice.
The 'In Battle' sprites only face sideways. It should be noted that if you choose to make different scaling, shading, etc. between the Overworld and In Battle sprites, then a sideways walking animation will be needed for Battle. Otherwise I am fine with reusing the Overworld movement animation for Battle movement.
I expect it should take 3 - 5 days maximum to create this Rat. If you provide satisfactory work I will likely pay you the same or even higher for more characters such as a Boar, a Wolf, a Lion, a T-rex, a Skeleton, a Zombie, a Mummy, etc.
The sprites should be completely original and it should be understood that I am purchasing all rights to them from you. This game is going to be published for profit, so the sprites must be my legal property.
I expect to see examples of your skill. Although I feel uncomfortable about it, if your examples are phenomenal I am willing to give $5 to $10 in advance for the commission.
The art style doesn't mater to me, it can be pixely or silky-smooth, whatever you prefer.
If you have any questions feel free to post or PM me.
