Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

My friend who is helping me with this says that if the demo is good and people seem to like it, he can invest money towards artists and the like. He said depending on how much it is liked, he can invest up to 1000 dollars. He's sort of rich :P

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

I've planned it all out, just not the exact wording. It's going fairly good so far, I think I've racked up about 10-15 minutes on Hana's route.. Doesn't seem like much but it is XD

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

And I've been doing exactly that. I'm working on it right now. But I work while doing it.. I don't write out huge scripts at once, I feel it comes together nicely if I write it while I'm working. Maybe that's just me though.

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

Writing out entire scripts is hard without art, because I think of a lot of stuff while building it.. So they would be incomplete scripts. And the plot may be "vague", because the plot is actually in the arcs. I plan on removing Misa and Rena's arc, because they are the most pointless ones...

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

Thanks, but I need editable dolls because of the school uniform and all which I can't draw because I well.. Suck at drawing, which is why I was initially looking for artists but now I'm trying to find art to use so people can see the plot and I can maybe find artists.

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

Alright, I'll see what I can scratch up. Hopefully Elze's idea of using resources works to get me artists to remake them :) EDIT: Oh, woe is me.. I can't find ANY half decent male character sets that I can use.. I used 2 photoshop dolls from the OELVN resources for the girls.. But I can't find a goo...

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

Alright, oko, I like them like that :P
@Elze: I've found some generators, and I can use resources for the backgrounds, but regardless I'm going to need something for CGs :/.. Unless I somehow find a way to make due without CGs, which seems slightly impossible.

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

Oko: I don't see what's wrong with "Hana Hatsumi", it has a good ring to it and Hatsumi isn't that rare of a last name, really. Ryusaki also isn't that rare, and I don't see anything wrong with it. I may remove Rena all together so that won't be much of a problem. I fixed Itsuki's name.. A...

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

Yeah, I can program, but I'm relatively new to Ren'Py so I don't want to have to make any complex python systems for anyone because I am not really capable as of yet. I can make them a website or what have you, because I can do pretty much anything in PHP, but I primarily program PHP and DM (A scrip...

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

I understand that.. But each arc alone should last at least 3-4 hours IMO. Moreover, I feel like if I shortened the project to about 8 hours of completion, with only 3 arcs, I still would be unable to find an artist.

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

I would pay the artists, if I had the money to :/
Only way I really could compensate with a fair amount of money is if this game went commercial, which it won't.

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

Thanks for the pointers, Duredhel.. For the first one and second one though, I'll tell you right now, I'm not spending 2-3 years making small projects and building a reputation. I absolutely despise small projects. Why? I can't even enjoy playing them myself. I won't make a game that I don't enjoy p...

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masaaki_Hatsumi Last name I'll fix the Tetsuya, I am pretty sure I saw it as a last name before but I may be wrong. I can guarantee that Ryusaki is a last name, although it may ALSO be a first name, it IS a last name. http://japanese.reader.bz/deushi I'm pretty sure that...

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

No, I didn't, lol.. Tell me specifically what names are weird(Not the full name, what section (1st/last) of whatever character, so I can be precise). That way, I will know which ones I should change.

Re: Need artists for a Visual Novel

They do exist, albeit a little rare. Same with the names, they do exist, albeit a little rare. I found most of them on a list of japanese names, and all of them are existent. @Cetriya: By commission, I assume you mean money? I'm not sure if I can pay much at all. I have created a smaller summary of ...
