Looking for help with Touhou character sprites for RPG Maker 2003

Hello everyone!

I'm currently working on my own non-commercial Touhou fan RPG using RPG Maker 2003.

I'm looking for help finding or creating Touhou character sprites, especially Reimu, Marisa, Sakuya, Remilia and Flandre.

Ideally, the sprites should have four walking directions with three animation frames per direction and be compatible with RPG Maker 2003.

I've tried creating sprites with AI, but the walking animations haven't worked properly.

Does anyone know of free-to-use Touhou sprite packs, or would anyone be interested in helping me with this project?

Of course, I would give proper credit to the original artists and respect their licensing conditions.

Thank you very much!

Is it paid?

Hello there, I can help you create custom sprites for your RPG Maker 2003 Touhou fan project. If this is a paid job I am fully ready to help you with this project. I can design clean and RPG Maker compatible walking animation frames without the poor AI animations. Can we discuss the details and requirements of this project further?

Hi there! Are you looking for sprite portraits, CGs or just their walking sprites? 

I'd love to help! 

Hi! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thank you so much for your interest!

I'm creating a Touhou RPG using RPG Maker 2003.

I'm mainly looking for walking sprites of Touhou characters like Reimu, Marisa, Sakuya, and Flandre. Character portraits and battle sprites would also be great!

This is a personal hobby project, and unfortunately, I don't have a budget for paid commissions.

Would you be interested in helping voluntarily?

I'd really appreciate your help! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'll check out the engine and see!! Pixel art isn't a specialty of mine, so I want to scope it out first.

But otherwise, I would love to help you! Credit is all that I ask for

Thank you so much! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'm really happy that you're interested in helping with my Touhou RPG!

Of course, I'd be more than happy to credit you in the game for your artwork!

Please take your time looking into RPG Maker 2003. I completely understand that pixel art isn't your specialty.

I'm still in the early stages of development, so there's no rush.

Just to confirm, would you be comfortable helping voluntarily without payment?

Thank you again! I really appreciate your willingness to help!

Yep! No payment needed! Just let me know once the art is needed

My art insta is bli-pst3r

Also, please do not feed my work through AI of any kind.

Hi Pillbox! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I tried searching for your art account on Instagram using the username bli-pst3r, but unfortunately I couldn't find it.

Would you mind sending me a direct link to your Instagram profile?

I'd really love to see some of your artwork!

Thank you so much! ๐Ÿ˜Š

and my deviant art as well

Hi Pillbox! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thank you for sharing your Instagram and DeviantArt profiles with me!

I also wanted to let you know that I completely understand and respect your wishes regarding AI.

I promise that I won't use AI to edit, modify, or alter any of your artwork.

Your artwork will remain your own, and I'll make sure to give you proper credit in my Touhou RPG.

Thank you again for being willing to help with my project! I really appreciate it! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Of course! I will more than likely only be able to do some major portraits and battle sprites for free though! Once you get started with your project, please contact me on any of the mentioned platforms for when you want assets made!!!

Hi Pillbox! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I've been thinking about which character portrait would be best to start with for my Touhou RPG.

I would love to start with Reimu Hakurei, since she will be one of the main characters in the game.

For her portrait, I was thinking of an upper-body illustration, showing her from the head down to around her waist.

I'd like her to wear her classic red-and-white shrine maiden outfit, staying as faithful as possible to her original Touhou design.

A confident expression with a slight, friendly smile would be perfect!

Of course, there's absolutely no rush, and I don't want to put any pressure on you. We can discuss the details and image dimensions before you begin.

Would you be interested in drawing this portrait when you have the time?

Thank you again for your kindness and willingness to help! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Hi Pillbox! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I have a quick question about my Touhou RPG project.

I'm currently considering switching from RPG Maker 2003 to RPG Maker MV, since MV offers more flexibility for character portraits and larger illustrations.

The story, characters, and overall concept would remain the same.

Since you kindly offered to help with character portraits and battle artwork, I wanted to ask whether working with RPG Maker MV would be easier or more convenient for you.

I haven't made a final decision yet, and I would really appreciate your opinion!

Thank you again for your support! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I actually work with MV myself! I'm good providing illustrations for either! 2003 has a certain charm about it i will say :3

Feel free to message me on insta or deviant art! For the portraits I can do a few different expressions per character as well.

Hi Pillbox! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thank you so much for offering to help with my Touhou RPG!

I've decided to use RPG Maker MV, and I'd love to discuss the character portraits with you.

You mentioned that I could contact you on Instagram. Would it be okay if we continued our conversation there?

Thank you again for your kindness! โค๏ธ

Best regards,
Patrick

Looking for a Volunteer Map Designer for My Touhou RPG (RPG Maker 2003)

Hello everyone! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'm currently developing a fan-made Touhou RPG using RPG Maker 2003.

My goal is to recreate Gensokyo as faithfully as possible, featuring familiar locations from the Touhou universe.

Some of the locations I'd love to include are:

  • Hakurei Shrine
  • Human Village
  • Forest of Magic
  • Scarlet Devil Mansion
  • Misty Lake
  • Youkai Mountain
  • Bamboo Forest of the Lost
  • Eientei

I'm looking for someone who knows the Touhou universe and has experience creating maps in RPG Maker 2003.

What I'm looking for:

Someone who could help me recreate Gensokyo's locations using RPG Maker 2003 tilesets, or help design suitable custom maps.

We would start with just one location, the Hakurei Shrine, and gradually expand the world together.

This is a passion project, and unfortunately, I don't have a budget for paid commissions. I'm looking for someone who would enjoy contributing voluntarily.

Of course, everyone who contributes will receive proper credit in the game!

I'm still in the early stages of development, and there's no pressure or strict deadlines.

If you're interested, please leave a comment or contact me!

Thank you for reading! ๐Ÿ˜Š
