i wonder if anyone knows if this site is worth posting models on for sell.

anyone know anything about this site id like to know a little bit more from others past experinces

I was wondering the same thing.  There are millions of models but I would like to know if any of them are actually bought.

well i do have a friend who made some mushroom models and he said he sold his pack 3 times. thats what got me interested.. modeling a bunch of game objects would be easy. and most of the models on there dont have texutres....


50 models at .50 cents = $25 model pack

Guess I should learn some modeling knowledge then...

When someone buys the model, how do you get the money?  Paypal?  Does the site take any of your money that you earned?

im not quite sure i havnt talked to my friend in a few months he sorta disapeared off of one of the irc network i hang out on. thats something i was wondering too ^^

I actually was looking at this last night, the only problem I saw was that "highest rated" had merely 4 reviews for most categories, and only people who purchased could review, thus it didn't seem like these guys were making lots of sales though.  Oh the irony in our browsing patterns

Or maybe, most people that purchase don't care to review..

well thats ironic.. he shows up today on irc ^^

[15:07] <[Fang]WarWulf> with turbosquid how does it work
[15:07] <ichy-foot-moe> Don't know, find out yourself
[15:08] <[Fang]WarWulf> do you give them your paypal or something?
[15:08] <ichy-foot-moe> Don't know, find out yourself
[15:08] <ichy-foot-moe> I have not used it in over six years, asking me is pointless
[15:09] <[Fang]WarWulf> more like 2-3
[15:09] <ichy-foot-moe> No, pretty sure it was six.



guess ill have to make them myself.. any suggestions on what i should make??

I doubt you'd make much off of it.  50 models to make $25.  You could make that in an hour working at a regular job, and I doubt you could make 50 models in an hour.
