Be forewarned, the most expensive MUGEN character comissioned so far was Maxine by Andres Borghi, and it cost his client about $2,200.

Seriously?  o_O

Not bashing the character or anything, but what's the angle? $2200 is ridiculous for that kind of work...

Well it was an original character, and he both sprited AND coded it. To be fair though, unless you're going to do really crazy stuff, coding for MUGEN is pretty darned easy and probably wouldn't add too much.

Keep in mind Borghi is usually known for making characters like this and the client wanted him to make a character like this

Not rediculous, you're basicly paying for somebody's freetime to be put in making something for you,
and you're paying for quality too, looking at the past record of said spriter/coder.

Yeah especially in Borghi's case, who made some of the finest original characters ever and I love him and hey Balthazar, did you see his Otaku short film? I think you'd dig it.

Reminds me, wonder what he's up to these days? Last I heard, he won that contest Peter Jackson was holding.

He posted in the help section earlier this year looking for assistance in something he wanted to add to his full game's update.  Knowing him it's probably something uniquely sinister, if the context of the post is anything to go by.

In terms of sprites only, you're paying 2200$/500 sprites = 4.4$ per sprite, which is a decent price when a spriter values his work.
And this is not counting the coding, time on original character design, etc. Granted, sprites can be somehow recycled from an anim to the other, but still.
It's all about how much a spriter values his work and how much somebody else is ready to pay in the end.

While we're at it :

I doubt, that I have 1500$ dollars ATM.
I'll probably try to sprite these chars myself. I'm not sure, if I can pull this off, though.

If he's just asking for sprites/spritesheet, reaching up into the thousands seems a bit extreme imo. But hey, everyone has their prices. But for someone to sprite and code the char... I'd say that price was kinda ok... $2200 is a lot to pay for a MUGEN char... I guess the guy just really wanted it. Can you code, Trinitronity? If you have to pay for both coding and sprites, the price may run pretty steep like that. None of the spriters you have in mind to commission for this can code, so, that means you'd have to pay some else to code the char... I don't really think it's worth it imo.

Uhm, I planned to code them on my own, so yeah, I just need the sprites.
I already started that with my question at the Development Help, of how to add a groove system, that is different from Warusaki's groove system.

Ah, I didn't realize he sprited AND coded the character... I thought it was just the sprites (which, looking at it from Cybaster's angle, it's true, not that high)... I guess I was just comparing it to the prices people are currently asking for fullsheets and it sort of seemed shocking at first.

Hello again,
this time, it's my first request, where someone needs to create sprites.
I need someone, who can sprite chars from BlazBlue and Sengoku Basara X into CvS style and (if possible) SF3/CPS3 style.
From the Sengoku Basara chars, I need:
  • Date Masamune
  • Oichi
  • Mouri Motonari
  • Oda Nobunaga
From the BlazBlue chars, I haven't got any real plans yet, but I mainly need 8 BlazBlue chars. Here is the current list of needed chars (will be updated later):
  • Noel Vermillion
  • Rachel Alucard
  • Taokaka
  • Makoto Nanaya
  • Ragna the Bloodedge
  • Daimon Hakumen
  • Nu-13 or Mu-12
  • ??? (it's either Jin or Platinum)
If someone is willing to sprite, I first need to know, how much I need to pay (prize per sprite), and the spriter needs to make a free sample first. If I'm satified,then the spriter gets the job. The final product needs to be sended to me as an SFF.
I hope, someone is willing to do it, and of course, I will give credits.

Long story short, you want something to make a sprite set on cvs sprite style ( shading and proportion- of the previouly mentioned characters), movelist should be pretty much the same as it is in their original games and the price you are willnig to pay is $100; the biggest problem I see there is that 100 is a bit too less becasue that's what craig charges for characters that don't need a change on proportion but mostly reshading, though going to 200 might be more fair.
as for those characters I might be interested on noel or makoto, but as said, 100 seems to be too little.

Okay, I'm sure, I can get 200$ dollars. It will take some time, though.
Meanwhile, I'll work on a char, so I have at least the system ready.

Okay, I decided to at least try to turn HI-Res sprites into CvS style. I've started iwth Date Masamune.
However, before I can start to work on the shading, I first need to know: oo I have the proportions right?
Also, sorry for the quality, that ImageShack gives. The quality was supossed to be better...

I personally would recommend you code with the original sprites as a base first. The last thing you want is for you to pay big money for the sprites and then realize that you can't code for shit/simply don't have the motivation to finish the job.

By resizing, the characters won't have cvs proportions, are you ok with that ?

I would actually love to see a Date Masamune in CvS form. I would use the sprites to make a MvC3 incarnation of him using a template I'm currently working on and based it off a fan movelist from someone at the Capcom forums shown here: http://www.capcom-unity.com/sengoku_basara/go/thread/view/107437/28042429/?pg=last

Since Capcom doesn't care about the Sengoku Basara fans outside of Japan anymore, it is unlkely he will ever be DLC for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 so I would love to do this and satisfy any fan that loves both Sengoku Basara and MvC3. The only hard part is custom voice acting, how am I suppose to get an voice actor to impersonate a voice similar to Robert McCollum or Reuben Langdon?
I will still do detail and aesthetic feedback for the rest.
