Well, I'm mostly new here, and I'm not modeller, I'm buyer. Specifically I'm trying to buy low-poly models at cheap price for non-profitable projects (like mods).
Well, I seen CGTrader from the first page to the last page in all categories I'm interested. Those are:
Architectural Exterior, Vehicles, Watercraft, Airplanes and Cars.
I just want to say a few suggestions to all of then who add low-poly cars (can be applied to others).
- The first to all I always see is poly amount. ALWAYS put the amount of polys, because this is really important.
- I do not know where is the law that says "expensive = better quality". I seen here someone saying someone is selling its stuff really cheap. Well, as other said, people is looking for cheap prices here, people probably are indie studios, non-profit projects (like me) or something else. So, why place expensive prices?
The problem here is that modelers are not adapting the needs of the people, the people have to adapt to modelers, this is probably one of the reasons because the people do not sell all they want. I seen people with low-poly models for $60.00 dollars, I explained the situation (I spent more than $200 in low-poly models here just talking with a modeler and bought all their stuff). If someone wants to get more than one item from you and offer a 'cheap price'... Why do not accept it? You prefer not sell anything instead of selling them cheap? Is something I will never understand.
I can understand that your work have a price. But... If you want to be well paid, work with a studio as freelancer. If you are posting your works on some pages is because you want to sell, and if you want to sell you have to adapt your work at customer needs.
You cannot expect starting here or in anything other page and get paid $60 or $90 dollars for a low poly model that took you probably 6-8 hours of work.
