Job Description: I have 9 distinct AI-generated reference frames of a side-view running character (1 idle pause + 8 run frames). I need a talented vector artist to take these references and transform them into a clean, professional, game-ready sprite sheet. Important: I do NOT want a simple AI upscale or auto-trace. The current AI art has slight anatomical distortions and inconsistent proportions across frames. I need a human artist to manually redraw and improve the character's anatomy and proportions using my images as a strict reference, ensuring perfect consistency across all 9 frames. Project Details: Subject: Athletic young man, side profile facing right, running animation. Art Style: Flat, bold 2D vector art (no gradients, no complex shading). Colors: Black sleeveless tank top, light blue/cyan shorts, black shoes with cyan soles, light peach skin, short brown hair. Background: Absolute pure solid white. Props: ABSOLUTELY NO swords, books, bags, or any extra accessories. The focus is purely on the character and his running motion. What I Need Delivered: A clean Adobe Illustrator (.AI) or SVG source file with all 9 poses separated on individual layers or artboards. A single, high-resolution PNG sprite sheet containing all 9 frames neatly arranged in a grid or row (with transparent background). Crucial: The hair shape, face profile, and clothing colors must remain completely identical across all 9 frames. Limbs must be correctly connected (no floating hands/feet). Required Skills: Expert in Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape (vector tracing/redrawing). Experience creating 2D game sprites or animation frames. Strong understanding of human anatomy and athletic running poses.

Hi there, I can manually redraw your 9 AI-generated frames into a clean, professional, game-ready sprite sheet, ensuring perfect anatomical consistency across the entire run and idle cycle. I completely understand that you need a human artist for this—absolutely no auto-tracing or simple AI upscaling. I will meticulously recreate each frame from scratch in Adobe Illustrator, fixing the current anatomical distortions so the athletic proportions and limb connections are flawless. As a game developer myself currently building projects in Godot, I know exactly how crucial pixel-perfect consistency is for smooth animation. I will ensure the hair shape, face profile, and specific colors (like the cyan shorts and peach skin) remain 100% identical across every single frame. I will keep the art style flat and bold with no gradients, completely isolated on a pure white or transparent background without any extra props. You will receive the fully separated .AI source file and the high-resolution PNG sprite sheet neatly arranged in a grid, exactly as requested. You can view my previous design and game asset work here: https://www.freelancer.com/u/malika335 I am ready to start immediately.

You really put a lot of thought into this. Your approach might be favorable but wouldn't it be more effective if we redraw the character manually instead of using AI? Redrawing manually ensures perfect consistency across frames, improving anatomy and proportions for a professional sprite sheet. I have further ideas and strategies to enhance the character. Let's collaborate, even beyond payment. One quick question: Do you have a specific deadline in mind for this project? Regards, Joshua Jaime Saunders
