Don't know where you learned to run a business, but you have the organizing group (in this case the developer), and you have the various contractors (artist). You pay the developer. The artist is in this case employed/contracted by the developer. When you hire a plumber to fix your toilet, do you directly pay the mexicans who work in the factory in mexico where the bowl was manufactured? Or do you pay everything to the plumber? You might want to reconsider your contracts with your subcontractors if you have periodic payments -- pay one lump sum and be done with it. Otherwise you'll have to look into the royalty schemes used for book publishers -- again, you buy the book from the bookstore, the bookstore buys the book from the publisher, and the publisher deals with the raw materials, printing, advertising/distribution, and author royalties.
