I'm presently looking for a character modeller for the game Lights Of Dreams... I will need that modeller to make the animals, ennemies( Monsters Boss) and NPCs

As a modeller u will receive ur own copy of LOD for free and all other games of Xilvan Design...

Given you are selling LOD for $10 (in your sig) is that what you think a modeller's time is worth for all that work?

I would assume he's hoping to sell more than one copy, thus $10 isn't his total expected revenue.

How much he's hoping to earn wasn't the question. The artist's pay is a free copy of the game, worth ( assuming the artist even wanted it ) $10.

Its my signature... The game value is 70$... assuming the entertaining value, the 100 hour quest ahead... but I've lowered to 10$ for making more competition with hardcore games... but no one buy it :(

No offense, do you really think that you can charge MORE than what Triple-A games cost? Even console games cost less! And since you're selling it now for $10 and still no one buys it it can't be better than best selling Triple-As, right?

I understand that it might be good for starting indy game although it doesn't look enough interesting to me - but I've never been into quest games anyway.

But the fact remains that even if someone would want the game(s) you're paying peanuts. $70 would get you 2 hours of my modeling time if we go by any professional artist charge rates... and good characer take about week minimum if we're talking about design, low-res (<5K tris) mesh, UVs and some sort of diffuse & specular maps.

I missed that part. Well then yeah, nobody's going to just do all the art for a game for free, especially if you will be profiting from their work.

When the game will be published more money will be distributed...

Well i'm in the mood to do some modeling but my time is scarce.
How about you just pitch me some creature-concepts and i'll work on them as i get time?
I just want to make sure you won't depend on my constant input.

And if we work together we need to test the art pipeline - i hate going through xx programs and fixing things over and over if you get my point... ^^
