Following on from my post about the Hero 2 fan project here, I decided to make this follow-up post as a spot where I can keep everyone updated as to what art is needed, what is already being done, and what's completed. I've already gotten a few artists reaching out to me, and that's great, thanks to each and every one of you!!
List of needed art below the cut:

Tua'an
Dax (plus "hologram" mode version)

Thank you in advance for offering to help out! I'm so incredibly grateful to have gotten such strong support for this project. Feel free to message me at any time with questions, comments, suggestions, or artwork offers!
(Note: There's a few more sprites needed as well, but as the characters' identities are a big spoiler for the end of Chapter 1, please go play through the end of the chapter if you don't want to be spoiled!)
(Last chance!)
***SPOILERS FOR END OF CHAPTER 1 BELOW***
Other sprites needed:
Vaanu
ES!MC (similar options to the main MC for customization)
Replaying Hero and read that if you let the second timer run out in chapter 14, Caleb creates a wall of fire to cover your escape. Naturally, I got curious... Turns out he just makes a smokescreen, but THIS caught me off guard:
As the fearless first sign of the zodiac, Aries is known for being energetic and intense. It’s no coincidence that Caleb, whose superpower is conjuring flames, is a fire sign... Aries are passionate and love a good challenge, but they are also prone to anger and even potentially violent outbursts. Caleb acts boldly and without remorse. We learn he has been in and out of juvie since he was 13, and that he’s antiauthoritarian. Aries is governed by the planet Mars, which symbolizes ambition and determination. Because Aries enjoy being leaders, they often have a hard time accepting other authority figures.
Find a list of all of the characters I’ve done here, and suggest a character you’d like to see in my asks!
