CloseIs this a bad combination?
Because my friend loves to draw people, and my brother loves drawing monsters.
Their art styles are different, (my brother goes crazy with colored pencils,(He's good, but our scanner is crap); and the face artist just uses pencil,) but do you think they would contradict too much?
or would it look okay?
Would having Greyscale face sprites bother you?

Can't really tell unless you show screenshots... no way to judge if there's consistency by merely a description like that.
Two artists is acceptable if:
1) They can match styles (rare skill for both amateur and professional artists).
2) The things they are working on are very different (such as animated cutscenes, face art and monsters).

he said that one will draw the faces and the other is drawing monsters
RTP sprites usually look ok with hand drawn facesets and monsters (people like me and Craze use Etoiler's hand drawn monsters and facesets with non hand drawn character sprites and maps and the games look fine)
pretty much the only thing in your game where you can't mix hand drawn custom graphics with RTP is character sprites and map tiles. because they are always occupying the same "plane" they need to be similar in thier style
but like the others have said we'd need to see some screenshots or some examples of what these guys will make for you to be sure
my guess is that as long as one of them is doing just monsters and the other is doing just facesets then it will look good

Just as long as you kind of outline it in a program (like photoshop) and clean it up a bit.
