[Question] How to get custom sprites?

[Megaspacewaffles]

Alright, so I?m in the process of creating my first fan game! The only problem I really see my self facing is the sprites! I?m really not artistic but I want custom sprites. What exactly should I do?

Make an exciting demo and use that to convince an artist to join?

Find sprites that already exist and that you're allowed to use?

Or pay someone, I guess.

Thank you so much for the advice! I?ll probably do a demo once I get to the first gym! I?ll just use placeholder sprites until I can convince an artist!

as said above if you aren't artistic yourself and need help with sprites i suggest you'd make a post on the recruitment forum here people will come to look to help people like you in need of help. you should add details to what kind of sprites you want and of course free lancers will do the work for you but keep in mind they might not be of best quality if you want high quality sprites you will have to pay someone or look on webpages from artists and ask if you can use them in your game.
