I just stole this from rmxp.org. I love you, Venetia. I've been thinking of making a spriting tutorial someday btw, but this should help you with templates.

Venetia said:
THE RMXP.ORG BIG LIST OF CHARACTER TEMPLATES

=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

Below are is a list of images related to the many character templates people have created. The below may be used at your discretion, WITH CREDIT TO THE TEMPLATE'S CREATOR.

Please, do not PM the template creator(s) asking for revisions, updates, or sprites.
This thread will not offer support/revisions on the posted templates of any sort.
DO NOT post critiques or opinions on templates here.


Is This List Missing a Template?***I had to delete some Templates (particularly ones by InvisibleDrifter) because the image links were bad.***

Have something you'd like to contribute? Post the URL of the template in this thread, along with the creator(s)' names, and a very brief description.

If you see a template you made here but want removed, or if a link does not work, please either post here or PM Venetia about it. Thank you!!!

Color Codes:
Red = Popular Template (if you search Resource Analysis, you'll find more than a couple sprites that used this template.)
Purple = Regular Template (you may not find many/any sprites pre-made with this template on this site.)
Green = Resource Template (not a character/face template, but still useful)

Template Opinions :: by Despain[spoiler]
RTP
Advantages: Fits with most popular resources.
Disadvantages: Some people will look down on you for not being "original".
Opinion: The RTP style is harder to work with successfully than one might think. The size is perfectly suited for the RTP tilesets (duh!), which makes this one a great choice for most projects. The style seems to be better-suited for traditional fantasy projects, but it is flexible enough to be used in other settings as well. The biggest advantage to this style is that most resources you find will match it, so it's best for those not planning to invest a lot of time into original graphics.

Kaizer
Advantages: Large size leads to great detail.
Disadvantages: Too large to be compatible with most tiles.
Opinion: I love the Kaizer, and who doesn't? It was one of the first original templates released, and is definitely the one that began the trend. In terms of spriting talent, Showkaizer's perhaps on the top, and this template shows it. It's very standard, not being too stylized, and because of that is very versatile. Its popularity is well-deserved.

Half Kaizer
Advantages: Medium-sized allows for enough detail without being too tedious to sprite.
Disadvantages: Still slightly larger than normal RTP tiles.
Opinion: The Half-Kaizer is Showkaizer's improvement over his originals. Not only were these made to better fit with common tilesets, but his skill imoproved and the pixel art is far better in general. Like the full Kaizer, its style is nicely generic, allowing for great versatility. The template also has a large amount of different poses and body shapes. No wonder it's the post popular template of the day.

Geredreth
Advantages: Large size makes for great possibilites for detail.
Disadvantages: Large size, single gender (now).
Opinion: Having made it myself, I'm rather bias. But trying to look at it from an impartial view, I am both drawn to it and turned off. It has a very unique style to it, emphasized by the round head and bead-eyes, which somehow make it look more geared toward futuristic games rather tahn the common medieval. Its size also makes it look intimidating for the spriter, guaranteeing a longer time working with it, but with possibly nicely-detailed results.

GeredrethAdvance
Advantages:The smaller, thinner style makes it easy to sprite with.
Disadvantages: Not much room for detail, single gender (now).
Opinion: I made this one because the full Geredreth was simply too huge. Like the full version, this is very stylized and is better suited for modern/futuristic projects. It fits the RTP-size tilesets now, yet the unique style still sets it apart. More usable than the full version, though.
