Looking for Artist for Updated C64/Retro Game remakes

Hi,

I am looking for an artist to re-create some retro game graphics but with a HD or cartoony edge. My first remake on the iPhone will be Purtle Turtles on the C64..



I would appreciate it if anyone could donate some animated graphics (seperate images) for the following please:
1.) Player Man (Jumps Left and Right, Picks up Fruit and Falls in Water) (covering day and night)
2.) Turtle - preferably purple and legs move when they come up (covering day and night)
3.) Fruit (various) (covering day and night)
4.) Backgrounds - Imagination is your only limit
5.) Other objects: Trees (various shapes, sizes), Aeroplane, Helicopter, etc - various backdrop FX.
6.) Sun and Moon (various phases as I will have day/night cycle)

All with a nice new look (HD) and.or cartoony modern feel.

I am an amateur developer, just joined the developer program and this will be my first game for the device... :)

I have a blog as well to map my way and help out other beginner developers located at;

Thanks,

Neil

    "donate " all that graphics? Give the artist 50% of the income. Don't expect people to do graphics for free.

    it may be a free game yet. it's a learning curve for my developing and possibly a new graphics artist who wants to play with some ideas.

    Why don't you draw some doodle graphics yourself? All that graphics is a lot of work. I think most of us here would rather make graphics for our own game(s).

    only asking as like I said I'm no artist and I thought of coming to the GS forums first.

    No artist is so free to make the complete game for you free.Really its a funny thing.
    They can donate a thing or two but asking for complete graphics for game is not good.

    ok i understand. everytimes time is worth something I agree.

    On that note, is there any artist that would like to take a share of the profits upon sales on the AppStore - looks like I will have to charge for this now :(

    You do know that there will be copyright issues with this? You can't just take someone elses IP and reuse.

    I would be interested.
    Here is a link to my art : http://pparnell83.deviantart.com/
    This is the colored work I have up: http://pparnell83.deviantart.com/gallery/3227512

    I would do a 50/50 share and you could sell the game for 1$ we both take about 25c.

    We could change the graphics to frogs or anything else still using the vague concept.

    Email me pparnell83@gmail.com
