Wishing you the best of luck, and keeping an eye on this thread to see which artists are willing to work with SRPG Studio :eyes:

I will say that only $330 for 100 portraits is too low of an asking price, in my opinion. That means you’re only paying $3.30 per portrait which is at least 10 times lower than what an artist usually charges for a pixel portrait. I’d recommend looking through the site’s Commissions Listings thread to see how much some artists here charge per portrait and re-evaluate your budget from there.

Yeah I have to second this. Even with another artist though it’s going to take a while. I’m sure you could negotiate an installments type deal.

For example: I do portraits for 20 without frames. So id be open to something that’s like 10 at a time for 150 a batch

"Thank you for the advice regarding the budget. I have re-evaluated my needs and would like to ask for 50 portraits for $330.

My budget is tight, but I am looking for a beginner artist who wants to gain experience. Here is an example of the quality I am aiming for (posting an image I drew myself as a reference). I believe this price is fair for the level of work I am requesting."

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. I apologize for any misunderstanding caused by my previous post. As I am new to this community and work as a pastry chef rather than a professional game creator, I am still learning about the market rates for commissions.

In my own workflow, I can create about 10 portraits per day, which is why I initially thought my budget was appropriate for the volume. I have updated my request to 50 portraits for $330. However, my main priority is actually finding an artist who can create unit sprites (map/battle animations) for SRPG Studio. The portraits are secondary to this task.

I am still unable to upload images here due to forum restrictions, but I have posted samples of the quality I am aiming for on X (Twitter) and Discord. I personally drew these villager portraits at a pace of 10 per day.

I am looking for someone who can help me with this project within my current budget. Thank you for your understanding and for the helpful advice.

Thank you very much for your support.

I have been developing this game step-by-step while working as a pastry chef. Last year, I decided to leave my job to focus entirely on completing this game for commercial release. I am putting my heart and soul into this project.

Currently, the only assets I am missing are the unit sprites. While I have created almost everything else myself—including the maps, battle graphics, UI, and portraits—doing the unit animations as well would simply take too much time away from the development process. This is why I am looking for a partner who can help me with the sprites to speed up the release.

I really hope to find an artist who shares my vision and can work within my budget. Thank you for following my progress!
