[QUOTE="Warden, post: 1352345, member: 11006"] We've noticed that there are a few artists out there looking to make a name for themselves and are willing to work with a percentage but it's normally by associating themselves with a project which they feel will grant them the most exposure or is similar to their own personal gaming tastes. For some projects, we have had no problem getting hold of artists, for others, we're still coming up dry. Emerald Press offers a percentage but we do not ask for much artwork because we are only PDF: at least one piece per chapter with encouragement to produce more should the artist choose to. All artwork is their property, we're just asking permission to use it in our published work. Most artists do the work for the same reason as the writers, editors, layout artists, and such: they just want to get noticed. Finding the right artist for the project combined with the heart to do the work for passion rather than pay might be the best -- if not, only -- way to go. [/QUOTE]
