We are currently discussing the character artstyle for a small FOSS game project:

The basic idea is to have pixel-art directional and animated sprites (potentially with some 3D parts) that also have a normal-map and work in a full 3D world (3rd person RPG).
Maybe there is some skilled pixel artist here that wants do expand his or her skill set to such pseudo 2D graphics?
I can give guidance in regards to technical issues, but any "concept art" with about 128pixel in height (or more?) would be fine for now.
