Then that'll show most artists how serious you are (and hopefully encourage them to join your project) What I usually do is I try to rely on creative commons first then script my story around them(or just try to readjust things later if I can't find an artist) Just a personal opinion haha. Just be sure to credit them after.
To the OP: I don't recommend begging for art. Most people aren't going to let you use their work just because you say you can't afford to pay them. It's really quite rude.
I recommend using placeholder sprites from the Creative Commons section for now. You can always replace them later.
I'm actually supposed to be getting the sprites and Bg from the Creative Commons but yeah, there was none that were on-point (not really on-point, but you get the idea) lol
I found a set from the links above that I would use and it's pretty neat.
Ohhh >.> you're right, I'll do keep that in mind haha. (In my next VN, that's where I challenge myself to make my own sprites and such.
