I Poser from Poser 1.
And pretty soon I knew this is/was/is a fine hobby, but could and would never be more than that.
Now the good years are over.
Fortunately, the quality of the products has increased hugely, but so has the time to build and test them.
You need at least a dozen or so trustworthy quality testers that can test them in most Poser versions on Windows and on MAC, and in most DS versions on Windows and on MAC. And certainly respect the rules of the stores you want to sell from.
And you have to build a reputation, before sales will start to go up.
And then?? What do you make?
Unfortunately, lately there has been so much competition that there is close to no money in it any more.
When true quality work, that took months to build, sells for 5$ ???
There must be some 3000 bikini's out there. Some 1000 opening and closing skirts and skirts.
Suits? How many more do we need???
Hair, yes, hair is an open market, but difficult to buid.
I Poser for a singe purpose only: PPS => Pure Personal Satisfaction.
That goes from building something in Hexagon and or Blender, through uvmapper and Poser.
Recently, the building part gives the most satisfaction.
So I spend more and more time in Hexagon and Blender.
As some others do.
And we buy less, and less, and less.
Could I make some money?
Certainly.
And giving support, and answering hundreds of e-mails a day, would do no good to my head either.
3D in Poser or DS is a very satisfying hobby.
3D job? In Poser or DS?
Nah,
Just my 2 cents.
