Commission Request - Pixel Art

Hi everyone!

First of all, I want to say that everyone's work on here is absolutely AMAZING. I am truly in awe of all of the talent I've seen on this page :-)

I am looking to commission someone to help me with art for a Stardew Valley mod. It would be for a Stardew-style base portrait (with ~6-8 variations of expressions, i.e. laughing, mad, etc.) and then a sprite (with variations facing up, down, left, and right for the walking animation).

You would, of course, be compensated for your work. You would also receive full credit for your work on the mod page and anywhere else that the mod is advertised. I also want you to have creative freedom -- there's a reason you're the artist and not me! My ideal situation is that this would be a collaborative effort rather than a "I Made This Mod and Hired You To Help Me" kind of situation. Rest assured, I have a "vision," but I also want you to feel creatively involved in the process.

This is all super early in the development process, so the timeline is relaxed. I think that the art is arguably the most important part of the entire mod, as that's what draws people in and brings the story to life. I want to have the art at least in process before I commission someone to help me with the coding (and if you're wondering wtf I will be doing, I am creating the character and writing all of the dialogue/events/preferences, LMAO).

Feel free to reply to this post or shoot me a DM if this sounds like something that would be of interest to you!! I'm happy to give more details about the idea itself/inspo, etc then to avoid making this post unbearably long lol. Looking forward to hearing from y'all!!
