I spend a lot of time modeling with Bryce, and I was wondering if I can sell my models.. Is the quality good enought ? who would pay for this?... how much? .... Now I need your opinion, here is a small part of my (home made) models.; please, let me know what you think about.. Thank you Warm regards.

Of course most of those models are 100% Bryce.. a few are modeled with Carrara and rendered in Bryce.

I think the quality is high enough to sell them.

Maybe I've gotta sell my own models too.

These are excellent models pidjy. I certainly think people would buy them.

I would look at other sites that sell models and get an idea of what the likely prices are for different models. Also, you might consider whether people would be more likely to buy a 'package' rather than individual items, or perhaps you could offer both. I certainly think it is worth a try, especially since the expense on your part to arrange for sales shouldn't be too much. Your items seem worthy of sale to me. I have found that most people are happy to give advice, so if you decide to start selling your items, pick someone you admire and get their advice.

They look as good as some things for sale I've seen. They are good. I would try selling them.:)

First thing to say: your models are excellent. If I wouldn't model by myself, I'd buy them. Especially the "House in ruins". Second: just give it a try. It cost you nothing to test if you can sell them - only some time. I also tested if Bryce models can be sold and learned that chests are not what the public need - no sales at all. ;-) But I will continue - offering free meshes and also try to sell some other ones - I don't loose anything if I try to sell. I only can learn by doing (or trying) it. Give it a chance - there's nothing to loose, only to gain. :-) Take care, Jimi
