The idea is surely a good one.
First thoughts that come to me (and only my own point of view):

1) art and style coherent: different artists different styles, someone has to coordinate them. Simply adding models here and there could not be appreciated.
2) Gamers are quite a different audience than modelers: a model thought to be sold to a modeler is complex, while a gamer wants to be ready to play in few minutes, so the model has to be simple and with damn good textures.
3) Gamers are very hard to please about Rules, that must be written by an expert and MUST be tested a lot and a lot ...
4) modularity is a good way to offer a game for everyone
5) maybe the same model could be sold in two versions: easy and hard
6) attention to not be a copy of other games
7) a good story surely helps
8) till now no mention to share commissions, but an open game is a good way to stimulate more artists to sell stuff dedicated to the game
