[REQ] Anthropomorph Sprites

For a fairytale themed roleplay, I need several 'fairytale animals' -- you know, the typical "upright bear in vest and trousers and monocle" and things like that. I've created the sprites of all the characters in the party:

(here are two of them)

But right now I find myself with the daunting task of creating similar sprites for all the NPCs, since the person that offered to help me with this task has backpedaled on me.

I welcome anyone that could help me. Any species you like, be it cats, iguanas, bears, foxes, badgers, etcetera- only no mythical or magical species like dragons or pegasi or the like.

I would welcome modified versions of the Civilians and Nobles sprite groups in the basic RPG Maker database. I need them for the town NPCs , and if anyone would like to volunteer to create unique-looking significant NPCs, please go ahead :) You shall all be credited accordingly :)


Thank you! :)

The problem is that there isn't really a template for anthromorphic characters, so someone would have to actually sit down and make it from scratch. And that might be turning people away - as it's not an easy task.

What you could consider instead is adding some other mythical/fantasy creatures like mermaids, fairies, gnomes and so on that are a little easier to edit. There are quite a few of these types of creatures in the rtp as well as the download manager. Or, add animals that are "intelligent" and can talk.

Otherwise, there are little add-ons like ears and tails that you can add to regular NPC's that would make them slitghtly more anthromorphic. However, they will still be largely humanoid.

It might also work to your advantage to have your main characters be unique in appearance - ie more animal than human. It could make for some nice character development :)
 

Thank you for viewing
