second model (road sign collection)

Road Sign Collection 

this is the second model that i'm uploading to turbosquid, this is a collection of two different models and a wide selection of different road sign textures I've made. 

model price: $1 
 

















 










this collection is designed to catch the buys eye by giving them a large amount of content for a low price, as a modeler i know how annoying it is to re-texture a model over  and over again so I've made this package to appeal to that audience of modeler with little time. 







first model (traffic cone)

Traffic Cone 

this is my traffic cone model, this model will be the first model that i will being uploading to turbosquid.
price of model = $1 






















i have started off small with this low poly traffic cone, i don't expect it to sell well however i have used this experience to learn more about the upload system, i learned that you should have a minimum of two wire frames and a few pics of the model at different angles.







Sales plan

as i will not be-able to complete with modelers that have been in the business for years beyond my experiences i will sell my models at a reduced price but keep the advantage/ good quality, this will appeal to artists that are in the need of small parts but don't have the funding to build expensive parts.




pricing:

simple model =  $1

advanced model = $2

environment = £3-5


Paypal account

to take any money that i make out of turbosquid i have to create a paypal account, once i have sett up the account i will link it to my turbosquid however i will have to wait until my next bank statement to get the paypal code to withdraw the money.

i wont have to worry about withdrawing the money until my products make the main pages as if the buyers cant see them they wont get purchase.


sale of my work

i have decided to start selling my work online as a independent 3D artist, i will be setting up a turbosquid account so that i can sell my models as .obj files.

Account address:

http://www.turbosquid.com/Search/Artists/darkcaper3d

as i will be selling my work i will need something to mark my products to show buyers that this object was created by me, to achieve this all my models will have my logo on there first preview pic.

my logo:


the reason that i am doing this:
the reason i have set my self up as a independent 3D artist is to get my work out there in the community, this will also teach me about the standard of which models have to be at for them to be wort anything. 
the second reason that i am doing this is to produce work for unit 200, this covers the unit as i am in effect work in a part of the business i want to go into after i finish my foundation/ BA course.
the second i want to go into (3d modeling objects, environments and character for games and architectural design) 
the last reason that i am doing this is i want to see what level i am in terms of creating a product now, by selling some models i will prove to my self that my work is at a sell-able standard (conference building) 

final thoughts: 
if this project goes well i will continue it over the next two years and then when i leave college i will be-able to used it as experiences in the field when i go for a job.
