As of today, according to the 3DC tally, Nesterenko has sold 1144 units of Nadya at $30 a unit. Not bad for one artist making a human Poser figure from the ground up; somewhere in the area of $34k gross so far, not taking into account the clothes and other paks sold by the same artist for the same model. A lot of the Japanese artists like MayaX and Kozaburo are showing us how it should be done and giving it away for FREE! DAZ and a lot of venders all around the Poser community owe a great debt of gratitude to the Japanese artists whose free products are used to sell commercial products. I think the independents should be supported and encouraged to continue to fill the holes DAZ cannot fill.
