I have three suggestions more:

1. How much will requested model be useful also for the others

Modelers usually want their models to be used in more maps if possible. This way, in case your map/project die, it can be still used by other people. Good example are starwars models, even though SWTJ died, still many people use those models. Requesting a random character from the most obscure anime, which only the most hardcore otaku are aware of, greatly decreases usefulness of the model. So generic models are in the end more useful than strictly based on other thing.

2. Try to get the best pictures from different angles (this is basically an addition to Xlightscreen first rule)

A single, blurry and from awkward angle snapshoted picture of the object won't help the modeler too much. Ideally would be like the way vehicles are shown in Red Alert 2 installation (i'm sorry if you don't know the game), but it's hard to find that kind of pictures. So, if possible, for example, avoid to throw just an anime character picture (especially if covered by other characters and objects), try to find him also from other sides.

3. Don't request too many models

If you're going to request like 300 models, it is more likely that you won't be taken seriously and your request would be done even for one model (unless you have in mind that movie )

Didnt bother reading the replies but to warn you

theirs a typo in the first post

"In short, look throughly through this thread before posting."

should be;

"In short, look thoroughly through this thread before posting."

Reason: throughly isnt a word

I don't get you people. You just pop in and in less than 10 minutes, post a request. This thread should be closed but I will let discussion go and clean it later.

Lol how can I possibly get somebody to make a transport... Usefull for any naturistic race, but probably boring to work on... The only that I haven't followed is the map completed, I'm constantly updating it with balance changes and new units.
