Need a Courier Made for PGT

Cyn1c

Hi,

I've e-mailed some artists mentioned in http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=119549 but have not even received a response yet. I'm Cyn1c from www.progamingtours.net and we're looking for an artist to get a courier made for a rather simple concept we have in mind.

Would also appreciate a mod/admin to mention a proper process to contact an artist.

Cheers!

Just get on the Dota 2 workshop, check out the submissions you like and add the artists you liked on Steam. From there you could move on to email/skype

The concept is a bird. We don't wish to add a separate prop that would require animation. So yeah, wings for the flying version. I can give more details over skype/e-mail about the specifics. There is one unique requirement which I can discuss over skype as well.

As for the pay, we're considering a profit-sharing model as it gets everyone paid on agreed upon terms. No harsh deadlines either but since the concept is relatively simple, we want someone to start working on it.

I hope this has helped clear things a bit.

Cheers!

I dunno about you guys but i get a junk load of spam friend invites when i post items. Iv accepted a couple but most of them dont speak english and just want me to make all there own ideas. After a while i just started ignoring all of them unless there in the polycount group already. Just an FYI for you Cyn1c, im sure im not the only one with this experience, makes it hard to filter, make sure to try to contact people in other ways.

You can always post on the Steam Profile.

I completely understand how that can turn into a problem really quick. That's why, we tried the discreet method first (e-mail). I always keep the skype/steam option open to the person when I e-mail them so they don't feel like we're some hideous people trying to pull shady stuff.

I'm glad you bring this up because this thread can be a must-read for anyone who's looking to hire an artist. Thank you for your reply!

At the same time, I'd also like to mention that we're open to other ideas should an artist deem something as "overdone" or having lesser success rate in the workshop submission process.

So is any artist interested?

A deadline would be very helpful. It's always a matter of available time whether or not we can fit it in because obviously we're all here to make Dota items ^^

Earlier we were eying something by the end of September, but if it is gonna take more time then we can do 10th October. Sounds good?

Update: The deadline has been extended to end of October. Please let me know if any artist is interested in starting this project. Please pm me if so.
