Sure, but I won't rinse and repeat the whole uploading process if it happens though. This is why: "TurboSquid Support, Jun 20, 08:14 SST: Let's give some time to time. Now if this individual was for real I would have loved to contact him and ask If he would like to give me that converted file in exchange for every dollar he paid for the model. But based on the results, we see that it makes sense to show off the CG part on the homepage as well. Here at CGtrader you can do all of that and much much more which is awesome!! Of course, as CGT reputation grows, this may change in the future (CGTrader has already beaten The3Dstudio in terms of statistics, but you also have to take into account that there are certainly a very significant amount of people coming here for 3D-printing only, which decreases the statistics in terms of regular CG models). And IMHO search is an area where CGT shoul focus first. CG trader is the first helpfull professional website I've seen in 20 years. I ended up terminating my account, seeing as I couldn't operate the store under such conditions - not only did I risk having the work I'd put in uploading items undone at any moment, I also had no idea what pitfalls I had to avoid to not have items taken down. It also seems to me like CG trader is looking out a lot more for the artists. Chat with Support 24/7 The "crap models", "under-priced models" issue is a very sensitive topic that should be discussed. How about all products here have no restriction Google search.etc. If I run the same test on Turbosquid or The3DStudio, I get almost exclusively original characters. It is the best RR in the world ! How about Negotiated price? After selling on TS over 20 years I can share that our sales here are x5-10 higher (partially due to stopped publishing on TS), so why about uploaded your models on artstation marketplace or other market place which allows you to sell in other sites, I think ts is the worth one. 2. Marius Kalytis (founder of this place) was a 3D artist himself and took notice of the questionable policy's the established market had adopted (leaving room to do it differently). CGtrader is just better in all possible ways. I can see how 3D modeling and 3D printing can be connected, but even that has to have a clear border for the customer. [google7|http://www.google.com] Rigged 3D models are available in Autodesk 3ds Max (.max), Maya (.ma), Softimage (.xsi), Cinema 4D (.c4d) and many other file formats. Login to PayPal to add your account as a payment method. I doubt the owner will say no to a hefty clump sum, no questions asked, in exchange for site keys and source. It's all fine and CGT rocks the socks off the competition. You could have a superman body with an iron man head and spiderman gloves. Everything about it is ugly, i just sell a model on cgTrader and another model on Turbosquid, cgtrader gives me 71% and i feel ok , turbosquid gives me 40% and i feel like i get raped, besides its tedious way of uploading methods im done with those guys, i will stick with CGtrader, thanks for the information, still 60 to 40 is a big difference. That takes longer time. @limonadinis Being an artist himself makes a huge difference in this regard. Plus, as I saw in another post, turbosquid does not let you post any links. Having too many high poly models in 1 scene can considerably slow down rendering times, work flow and even crash your computer making the entire scene unusable. It certainly is an interesting read all together, thanks for documenting it so well and make the whole thing public, although I hope you don't stay embarked on a power struggle whit Ts management. I have noticed that a lot of artists are moving to Asia to find jobs where they are far better respected and paid what they are worth. @captainmarlowe Thanks a lot for a lot of valid points regarding search and categorization! Also the management is awkward on TS. @Urecky, while i'm agree with you in general, let me argue on some specific points. They provide clients with pretty much everything they could possibly want at reasonable prices and have a 100 percent guarantee return policy on all their items. Well, unless I can verify the quality of the model I'm not going to pay for most things. Ebay it's ALL about direct seller/customer relationship. rigged People SixPack 003 - Photogrammetry Population Character Rig, Realistic Human Body Basemesh - UVMapped - Rigged, CARTOON MAN AND WOMAN - TOON MOTHER AND FATHER, Worker Mining Safety Female - Bella - Harness, Naked Fitness Blonde Woman with Tied Hair. You don't even seem to get reputation points for purchasing items, assuming I've read the page correctly, and if that is the case it's just dumb. I like the concept of CGtrader very much, hope to see the duality issues resolved. But if you are on Turbosquid as an exclusive sale (models will be sold only on the website TurboSquid), Cgtrader can lose and this position, in favor of TS On Ts we get served for extreme large cost and rather badly frankly said. They do not deserve that I fed them 60% It's like if shapeways.com will start selling classic "cg" models. Offering customers best prices on TurboSquid is mandatory for all artists publishing on TurboSquid. So let's hope that at some point, the designers of the site will establish some filters to guarantee a minimal quality and, why not, a "good practice charter" for the sellers, or that they will explain some sellers that their attitude is not good in the long term for the site credibility. Even when Ts would sell more models it does not mean they serve you well, because it is not. @Supercigale, this is worrying to read, i think such things shouldn't happen. Fantasy is a bit better, but sic-fi gets me 10 copyright infringements on the first page alone (star wars characters, mainly). [google][http://www.google.com|google4 ] Basically, they continue to sell their previous models or are selling non-liquid assets. The next thing CGT needs to do is get in with Ebay, Amazon, walmart etc places where everyone buys not just 3D enthusiasts and that regular people trust with their money. Despite offering models much cheaper (obviously) here than at TSquid, the clients prefer to buy on TSquid.

What's lacking? As long as CGtrader and Marius keep leading the inclusive marketplaces with respect for the Artists and their own branding, we at NoneCG will continue to support CGtrader and Marius indefinitely, no extra shiny coins needed for us. and we lived the evolution of Turbosquid from being a pioneer of the 3D assets market working alongside the real content developers to become a typical corporation with financial backing from angel investors that only cares about financial results and is trying to strive the 3D market towards a monopoly where they can control both the producers and the customers, where acting as just a middleman gets Turbosquid the most profit from both. Unless you have a huge ass :) You can not keep all aspects of these markets covered, so you will only be average on all of them or even worse. CGtrader has been growing steadily faster than Turbosquid for several years, that's why they are making this desperate "first blood" move asking their Investors for an extra cash to buy Sellers out against Marius and his people, with the promise that they will fuck you to death later once the war is won for the #SquidClan. Got my model (https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/furniture/cabinet/handles-vol-01-pbr) I don't think trying to sit down with one ass on more then one chair at the same time is a good business. My sales are not still on par with TS, but I haven't published new models for quite some time, because I only have time to create models to enter challenges from time to time. Renderer: Cyclse. You are clearly one of the professional buyers who doesn't take advantage of the system but there are so many out there who do that and 3D sites are beginning to try to safe guard their artist's work by not making it so easy to just get everything you want for free. I like this site more, because, firstly, it has a much more pleasant and understandable interface, gives a higher percentage of the sale (on a TS, it looks more like a tip if you are not a member of their club), and generally it works more stable. but outside of the fact cgtrader is 95% designers and 5% customers its way better and easier to use more professional looking and feeling. They recently changed their search engine over there and when you search for Free models it comes up with a few free ones and many more paid ones so from that perspective Turbosquid makes your life even harder lol. A rig is like a skeleton of a 3D model, which lets you move and pose it with little effort. Here is a quick test that can help understand why there aren't so many buyers. Doing the same at Turbosquid feels as dreadful as applying for a driver's license. Honestly I feel that it would be better to sell n bit slower that to have your models stolen. What? I agree that these two parts - CG and 3D printing should be split at least externally/ visually. I have it is about 5%. Don't know if it's already mentioned in this thread, but in TS you have a refund system, when customer buyed your product has ability to bring back his money and it'll subracted from your earnings, if he doesn't like a model for some reason. The first thing you see is almost only 3D printing assets. Rigged models are great for art projects, games, movies or VR experiences, because they save a lot of development time. If you look around on the net on all the various forums everyone always mentions Turbosquid be it positively or negatively. I had hoped that CGTrader would want to be the kings but i have to be honest if you licence a thing only here you have to own it forever, as you cannot sell that licence. See the reputation, see the response rate, realise the problem will be fixed. So my own experience on sales is of little value. Yes. I still get more sales on TS, despite having adjusted all prices to compensate their extortions. with the recent requirements to upload a 3D product on TS, CGT became my number one no doubt, i'm not gonna wast half my life rendering turntables that wouldn't make much of a difference when every seller is doing the same thing. Cgtrader better sell my shoes here than ts.plus webmoney plus royalty rate. They did so by making products that looked so much cooler than PCs and people were fooled and then eventually they made so much money that then they kept putting back into the product and eventually came out with the Ipad which even all Apple haters love. In my experience often times a client will ask for certain models but then one must take into consideration what computer specs they have because you don't want your client to get frustrated with the models you buy. My response was, not going to do that, its my work I decide the price. The paypal commission is paid 2 times - 1 when the model is bought, 2 times - when money is paid to the seller. All that time that we didn't have to spent dealing with Turbosquid bad support went to more time for artistic work. (Edge loops, quad poly, simple overall structure) Full Rigged with over 30 facial blendshapes and 20+ skin morph targets in order to produce better rig quality and remove some joints issues such as overlaped knees, stretched hips, etc. Personally, I will never sign up to exclusive contracts, others should always get chances to maybe offer better job if they can. So, CGT is the best guys ! Answer (1 of 7): I'm a CGtrader member for almost two years now and in my opinion it is the best platform for stock media developers available today. It is also my favorite 3D site but some things need to be fixed before they can overtake some of the other sites. ;), My thoughts exactly.. 3d Printing could be very profitable (for CG Trader, and the modelers) With the support of a strong community we can get this thing going, don't worry about that. A: TurboS*swearword-here* will start to DOWNTICK PRICES to match them to "other selling sites" on customer complaint, so I will remove every model they demand for down-adjustment, and I'm sure I won't be alone in this. IT'S A WASTE OF TIME. Tom cat cartoon character rigged for Maya 12. Plus giving much higher royalties, instantly paid, much better support, publishing system, etc. I see what you mean but I think it depends on how you are covering markets. 60% cut could be ok if that cost could be added to the product but price guarantee makes that impossible. At least some aspects of it. I would like to see similar stats from other sellers, but CGtrader has been the 3D marketplace with the higher increase in sales for us without a doubt. Professional Rigged 3D Female Models Toggle Navigation; 3D Models New & Unrated Rigged Price. I'll ask my friend to get in touch with you for the unsolved support, as I think it is him who has to do that - not me. If you manage to get lots of buyers on there you could make a real fortune. I got a bunch of scanned statues sold for 3D printing, some sci-fi characters that are obviously copyright infringements because made from movie licences, and, at the best, less than 1/2 of original characters models, many of them not being displayed because of "adult content". I posted my first model today and have to say it was a very pleasant experience. If I am searching for a 3D model, I am not interested in 3D printing services, and vice versa. Yes, at this point the level of sales of the TS is higher than the CGTrader and TS has a more flexible search system. Site issues? Payment Method CGtrader might have better conditions, rules and everything but it's useless if it doesn't attract more buyers. Products are subject to the TurboSquid, Inc. While i've heard that TS support isn't that great in practice and they always tend to exploit sellers, but impression that they're making on buyers must be really good. I'd rather look into ways to create my own site, cause it's a bit tedious to sift through neverending site rules from neverending projects. TurboSquid be avoided guys! Maybe there is something behind the scenes what you can't know or can't tell? This would be a really good way of encouraging buyers to come spend their money on CGtrader where they can find what they want faster than on other sites. I think CGTrader just has to advertise itself more.. everything else will fall into place.. CG traders designer rank rep points. A little more than a year passed since our public disagreement with Turbosquid policies and behavior that ended our relationship as content creator and reseller. i think they both have there place . It seems to me that over time a CGTrader will be able to overtake TurboSquid in many positions, if TS does not change its policy.

There are currently no models in your cart. What I saw after that was a 50 to 50 ration decrease on Ts and increase on my CGt account. Everything is more and more coming down to individual levels of very friendly and much more human communication. I was a seller on Ts for very long time but never liked it, felt the 60% cut was unjust, the aggressive tactics towards competitors was bad, the self centeredness to keep artist away from own clients was wrong, and there are many more reasons why it never felt home to me. I don't know whether it would be possible to implement, but it would stop those who just wanted to download as many free models as possible. This would allow genuine potential buyers to check the quality of models. When someone uploads a scanned model for 3D printing and tags it as "low poly", the model will appear even where it shouldn't. TS can go to Hell, and never return again. My current store on CGTrader includes numerous items that were deemed to be infringing upon GW IP (link below). It is a shame that cg trader has so few people using it but turbosquid has been going for some time now and is very well established. On "woman", print-ready jewels and scanned models again come in the way. Advertising? If there is a problem they will fix it for you. Turbosquid has too many models I understand CGtrader's management don't want to bet on one horse but it probable lives the two horses crippled in this case. I tested the CGTrader rigged character morphs for Daz3D studio from your commission and it works like a charm! In this case you could say (in a nutshell) CGt is (at its core) acting as a hub providing file hosting and transaction services, and it can basically do so whit everything digital. Same for me, here.

So i need to try to make money with my models as long as possible, means as long it is not uploaded to anywhere else. Don't know how many even bother to ask, and on Ts no one can ask anything. I was thinking of ok if the ts is shit why not using other marketplace with the cgt specially if both accept selling in other marketplace, You have zero 3D models uploaded here. Exclusivity to any marketplace has been proved a revenue loss. cgtrader is far better than turbosquid in my opinion coz cgtrader offer 80% royalti payment and turbo only give you 40% royalti payment which is sad. Gumroad is an awesome virtual marketplace where artists can create their own store and sell any type of digital asset, from textures to tutorial series.

Look for the big picture and think medium/long term. I don't get paid until the 3rd, but I thought I'd download some things, look at their quality, fill up a cart and get prepared to purchase when the money comes around. I think arguments of differences in search are irrelevant when someone is looking for the same model to compare prices between the two biggest players. One of the biggest problems in this country is that the games and film studios are becoming a bit of a joke and not getting the funding they used to have. The very best thing I find on CGT is the disponibility of the team. Add a Payment Method, Add a Payment Is the same for me as everyone else. The motivation to backlink and make marketing efforts for the own store (and the collective trademark ad the same time) would probable also increase. (e.g. I wanted to test if clients compare sites (eventually wanted to avoid clients would use the expensive Ts platform to get my items). Founded in 2000, Turbosquid has championed growth in the 3D space through partnerships with leaders in the industry. So in this case you could say we are the asses and there's lots of us so we form a huge ass and CGt can place many chairs for us to sit on ;-) - Crowdfunding to improve the CGtrader presence in the market.

It doesn't matter if the printing industry is growing fast. "that is where the big money can be", being able to part with an invention has value. Nice try. Then I contacted Eduardas and Mantas who refused to remove the rating, They simply do not get the idea that Turbosquid is just another reseller for the real product developers, and Turbosquid management and "rules" promote exactly that. Royalty rate of CGTrader allows the seller to make a model cheaper than on TurboSquid. Well, unless I can verify the quality of the model I'm not going to pay for most things. I'm done with them.

Dear Kanga you are absolutely right and on top of that you won't have to worry about their super buggy uploading system either. Having said that creating models of that high end quality is quite the burden on 3D modelers who just do it as a hobby or work 3D part time so a lot of artists are moving away from TS because they can't sell their regular models on there anymore. You can enter multiple email addresses separated by commas, Thank you for shopping at TurboSquid. You have to realize that TS is recognized by autodesk and even had a direct tab link to their site in max itself.
