Quote - mix_mash I checked out your store and your stuff looks really nice.

What takes you so long to complete a product? This might be an interesting topic for a thread, but I fear it would turn into a trashing of Poser.

It can vary from product to product but here's a small list of things that are regarded in the creation process:

Ideas and concepting
3d construction (also need to ensure that the polycount is fair and not too high)
Creating morphs
UV mapping
Importing and setting up in Poser
Creating textures
Setting up materials
Fixing errors in modelling, texturing and material creation
Rendering
Preparing custom tutorials
Promos
Setting up the zip (making sure the folders are all correct, doing the readme file, etc...)

Sometimes just coming up with ideas can take a while. Sometimes ideas can be too elaborate on paper so I need to compromise in the 3d design.

3d products take at least a minimum of 60 hours to make. 2d products usually take a minimum of 40 hours. But other things such as my personal life and the weather (I can't stand working in hot weather and neither can my computer!) keep me from working at a steady pace.
 
Right now I'm working on a simple Venetian mask with 50 custom designs. I'm also including all the basic alphas used to create the designs and a tutorial of sorts to help out with that so that people can create their own variations of my designs. All that for the minimum product price.

PS: Thanks for the compliment!
