Probably - I'm not a great artist. I'm writing two other games at the 
moment which I need to get out of the way, and I need a few sprites done 
for one of those. I've done some basic graphics for Fatal Alliance, they 
look quite nice because it runs in 800x600x16bit with lots of 
transparency. (It needs an AGP video card to run at something approaching 
a playable speed)

I've already worked out what the aliens will be. If anyone's interested, 
a quick picture I drew of one of them is at:

(not much there yet, FA does not have its own page)
