Just don't be disappointed when all the people who screams AWESOME now won't buy them after all. 

Sorry.. been there done that lots of times by now. People keep asking for "natural, non-model characters" - but when it comes to the shopping they still drop the lates botoxed V4 dialspin in the cart.

Bitter? No. Realistic? yes.

It's all about presentation.

Show a bunch of great closeup shots of unique faces and you may not get a lot of interest.  BUT, put a bunch of good shots of unique faces and pair them with boobs and leather in the background and you'll get a lot of attention. 

Advertsing words like "This is a neat thing you should buy." aren't very compelling.. but words like "Buy this or we will shoot this dog." make a more powerful statement . :)

Be unique in your presentation.  Focus on quality, clear information, outstanding value and the degree of freedom it gives the user in deciding what THEY want their character to look like.. not what some artist guy thinks looks good.  A good slogan always helps...

"Who do you want her to be today?"

Of course, never obscure what the product is.. unlike two real gems I got ripped off by.  Yup, sold by a very reputable and highly respected marketer.  Not their fault though.  I bought a face pack and a body pack touted as "unique" looks and "original" and "different" morphs...  I thought "Hey, great, I don't have to do it myself!" .... Dialspins, every last one of them.  I'll never buy any product at face value again from that producer or that marketer.
