Why are 3d models so expensive? Lots of them even look like garbage but they still cost 60 dollars

>> No.677611

Model them yourself then, and you'll quickly find out why they cost that much

>> No.677628

>>677611
Yeah, but the issue isn't the high quality stuff. Often I see low poly, or even outright shit, models going for hundreds of dollars.

>> No.677636

again, model it yourself and see why.

>> No.677638

People make projects where deadlines are an issue but not so much budget. Look at shows like the most extreme on animal planet. Those models were awful but the show was fine.

It's just hobbyists thinking they can get easy money, no one is buying those models though.

Some people are, I saw a tracer model that was literally just the sfm version ported to maya on sale for $300 with 3 confirmed purchase reviews on a site like op, if the reviews were from shill accounts that meant they paid whatever was the sites cut 20% or whatever, so I'm inclined to believe some of the shit models on those sites sell even if they are $100+

Just use the Daz store.

Turbosquid is full of people who believes what they are doing is "art" and that they should be paid thousand dollars for anything. Daz has a vibrant community of people who aren't completely retarded, and most of the prices are in the $10-$20 range.

That's the difference a vibrant community can make against a moribund community of so-called 3d artist. You know I'm right, and it infuriates you, but that's the truth. Welcome the truth.

>Why are 3d models so expensive?
Because they're not for you. They're for companies and studios that don't give a shit about paying $1000 for a model of a trash can, and only care about getting a project done.
The stuff on the marketplace isn't for the general consumer or for amateur 3d artists. It's expected that you could just do it yourself. If you do have a client that needs stuff done though, it's not out of the ordinary to just add things like that to the cost (within reason), or factoring it into the budget for a project.
