I am here to request a sprite for my fantroll, whom I'll be introducing into one of the roleplays! I've tried my hand at making a sprite for her, but I'm stuck on her clothes and hair.. Here is the tektek reference of her, which is the closest I could get to how I want her to look!

Now, for anyone that is interested, I can give you the unfinished sprite that I made, which will show you how her horns, symbol, and blood color are supposed to look!

I am willing to pay to help motivate people into doing it, but the highest I'll go is 5,000 gold, because it is only a sprite.. I will go higher if you throw in some more art of her, though that's just if you really want gold!

I can do it, but it might take a while. I'll also be drawing with a mouse, so it may not end up perfect. I'll see what I can pull from reference sheets and whatnot.

Alright, thank you very much! Here is the reference/failed attempt at a sprite, and the only thing I got anywhere near right was her face, but even then she looks a bit.. anime styled. But that's only because I tried to style the eyes like the Gaia sprite. And the hair looks a bit flat, the horns too big, and I couldn't even start on the bottom half of her clothes! I hope you have a bit more luck than I did! XP

The ridges on the inside of her horns are supposed to represent an octopus' tentacles, because her lusus is an octopus.(Same with the circles on her belt, which look a bit like the suckers). I trust your judgement with this!

How much would you like for it?

How does about 1.5k sound?
I think if the horns had a wider base, it would look better, and also if the eyes were slightly flatter. I'll cross-reference some things. I'll start with a new base and then copy things over to it. Also, do you want boots over pants like in your avatar? and how much in the way of the purple detailing are you looking for? I'll also take a little creative license with the hair in the way of sticking out bits, if you don't mind.

1.5k sounds fine to me! You can do whatever you'd like with her, but yes, boots over the pants unless that's to difficult with the sprite base! That's where bad my biggest trouble, after all. I'd like some purple detailing in the pants area, like in the tektek, but you can put in as much or as little as you see fit! I don't mind at all with what you do with it, as long as she generally looks the same as the tektek, you can do whatever!

The boots over pants part won't be difficult at all because the art has been done for me. The hair is all new, though, and looks great so far. I just need to mess with layering a bit to get the fins to show properly. There are a lot of sprite resources out there and my plan is to steal Godtier Vriska's lower body and recoloring it to fit. Then I'll use someone's face to get the proportions accurate and edit your existing horns.

Sounds awesome! I'll start the trade, you can accept it, and I'll confirm it when the sprite is done! :33 Thank you so much for doing this, really!

You're welcome, I'm almost done. I just need to know if you want the accents on the pants, or leave them plain. The belt is done, and I doubt I could do any more with the shoes.... I re-sized and altered the horns and added hair tufts at the base. The eyes I realized are kinda like a set I found in the sprite sheet if you squint, so I edited an edit of Aradia's, so now they look more canon. Otherwise, I cleaned some stuff up and fixed some colors using Terezi as a color picker and proportion checker.

Wonderful! And yes, tasteful accents on the pants would be great, and then everything else sounds perfect!

By sprite, do you mean like her prototyped sprite?
That would be uber cute to draw. . /// .
