Beginner looking for some general advices. Character models vs environments vs single assets
Discussion started by LegendaryMemer1337
I've been on this platform for a while, though I wasn't much serious about making models for sale until now. Somehow I've managed to sell some models which surprised me a lot. I want to ask some general queston about how selling 3D models works now, and maybe some personal advice (please please).
First of all I guess that uploading easy models that are cheap price doesn't work. And the bigger/more complicated/expensive is the project the higher chance you will get noticed. How true is it? As for my skills, I'm somewhat average at polymodeling, PBR texturing and sculpting. Actually improved my sculpting a lot since last character upload. Right now I have some plans, but I'm still not sure which direction to choose.
I can make modular asset packs for creating game levels. Like walls, floors, some decorative assets. It's very tedious and time consuming, but not that hard overall.
I can make some single assets like high detailed weapons, or something very technical. Like a crossbow or a photocamera for example.
And the last thig is making characters. This one is the hardest for me, because I'll have to learn rigging and this is the pain. But this one is the most interesting for me and I guess characters are always needed. The fact that people bought my not that finished not rigged character twice says something.
I'm still going to experiment with this, but I wonder what sells better in your experience.

u based on there project needs . this why normally means uploaing objs pbr s cos they be using at unreal engine or blendr or maya ... most likely have to add the have add the texture later...i think its based on supplying there need for these polatforms enable them use it in there project .. cos ive found pbr work better in some render than others
but it could just be that mine are trash XD
In my case, I was lucky with weapons xD .... Im new to all of this , will see what will happen in future.
The problem is I'm equally interested in all those things and torn between them :D
