Well first you need a good artist. There shouldn't be any problems with any of the tutorials on the web they all draw the sprites as well as the artist has drawn them.

First of all, you need to read "So you want to be a pixel artist" by Tsugomo. You can get it here: http://www.zoggles.co.uk/asp/tutorials.asp?tut=17
After you're done with that

Now, here's some other great tuts:
