 So, I know I'm new here. I don't mean to be rude or to seem needy or entitled...

Disclaimer being said, I'm running into a slight issue with my new game design.

I have made a portion of the maps, gathered all my needed tiles, and a good portion of the music.

I am working now on re-writing the combat/class/skill system with all my original stuff.

The game is called: Work

It's going to be modern, and be a poke at the current economic conditions and trends toward marginalizing working class folks while more stress is piled on them.

It's going to include stuff like Energy Drinks/Uppers, to restore Stamina(MP) to enable the use of your special 'Job' skills. 

Anti-Psycotics to maintain your Sanity(HP) after taking damage while completing 'Job' tasks (Enemies).

So my problem is, I need to replace the slimes, demons and goblins or whatever, with custom battlers.

I am not going all-out on this project, it's just my first one. All I really need is something usable, and not horrible looking.

I was thinking just a resize of some Icons might work, but I was hoping to enlist the help of an actual artist.

I'm great with writing, designing, brain-storming and story-boarding, but art has always eluded me. I can barely draw a stick figure without screwing it up.

I don't even need someone to make them, just maybe someone to bounce ideas off of and get tips for creating them or porting them from other sprites. 

I don't need them to be animated, just relating to the 'Job' tasks I am designing. 

First project, free-release, using a lot of ReStaff assets, and stuff from Granny, Panda, etc... No need for it to be professional quality. I just want like a Cheeseburger sprite for the Food worker to fight when he has to tackle the 'Large Family Order' enemy... Ya know?

Or a Book, or page/scroll sprite for the Clerk when he needs to 'File Paperwork'.

Anyway, any help would be great, even just links to similar stuff, suggestions are great too.

You guys have welcomed me and I am thankful already, this is just icing.

Plus, this game idea has been chomping to get out of my head for a few days now and it's driving me insane.
