I wouldn't accept anything below 75%, no matter who is the organizer. Ofcourse, I have to work with an organizer who agrees to that. I can survive without them.

With players we generaly offer 30% to them, tournaments varies so much, some offers are pretty sad ):
Ah, thanks for the advice. Unfortunately I've had to turn the tournament down at this time, they refused to negotiate at all and were offering a very low amount. (less then your numbers Magno). Is it common practice to send sets from multiple artists to Valve for evaluation when a tournament is only actually looking to bundle 1 set?

Hmm ya, I mean when I do for pro players the artist gets 70% and the player 30% (which is the same amount that the polydudes got for the free to play sets, if I'm not mistaken), tournaments varies alot, I got offers of 15% to a cap of 50%.
I don't like to work with anything below 70% for the artists and 30% to the third party, unless I see it worths somehow.
How does the initial planning stage happen, exactly? Does it work like a normal commission where you contact the player with a portfolio, agree, then get to moving on the product?
I'm asking as a 3d artist.
Love the thread, btw! I'm a fan/player and artist, so I have some fun ideas already.
Funn1k from navi wants a techies set made ASAP. If anyone is interested, let me know. He has come down to the desired split of 70/30 in favour of the artist. You just have to be willing to work as soon as possible!
Yeah, not sure if it ever will.. but I planned on making a set for them anyway... might help valve decide, if a good techies set, with pro gamer support, get's attention at the workshop..
Funn1k is one of my fav players.. making a set for him would be really cool. I have this clinkz concept which I could finish if someone wants to make it/its good enough? The lore behind it is that Clinkz stole magic from a powerful cryomancer to try and negate the hellfire- the unintended result is frozen flames.

Now that New Bloom deadline is past, which I'm sure many workshoppers must've been working hard to meet (some amazing stuff out there this year btw), I wanted to post again to note that many of the Chinese players listed with requests in my earlier post here are still looking for any artists to collaborate... PM me or whatever and I can put you guys in touch, or help communicate as needed. Thank you everyone
i m (still) doing VS design for xtinct actually...:poly121: contacted him/ oling when this thread was still 1 page that time.
this is the head slot developed 3 months ago before spring event and other projects makes me hiatus for this. http://i.imgur.com/e2VbuWC.jpg
fucken love it
Make sure you keep the player informed (or in this case tiffany) so they know whats up. I've had to chase up artists before who have just no communicated with their players.
Just a hey sorry I'm a lazy ass, still working on it though! Is all they need every couple of weeks. Heh, It's what I was telling envy for a while
oh ya not to mention i'm chinese as well so i can read chinese lol
got any question about translation (with bad english grammar) you can find me for that via PM or steam (if you've added me before that) when other chinese translator is not yet free to translate.
just i can't read the dota hero names in chinese because i play dota with english language so yeah haha... i need some time to google with that name if the original script/ text contain chinese spell / hero name.

All of the simplified Chinese names can be found inside of this text file:
Are there any updates/changes to this based on the International coming up soon? Some of the requests seem outdated based on the players/patch/tournament (for example, Ferarri 430 doesn't really play Ember Spirit at all anymore, so not sure he'd still be looking for the official Ferrari Ember pro set)

they give you ideas, or they say "make it however I just want something epic"
then you realise you do 50 concepts and they like none of them... >.>
Each player is different and communication is key to making sure you are both happy with the experience
