Thank you. I used to hate how it would crash constantly or find that half way through the process even after saving a draft,suddenly the poly count numbers or other text, numbers etc suddenly got erased. They could put down an amount between 1 to 5 bucks as a deposit and after sampling the model as you suggested they could deduct that amount from the final sale. Turbosquid just has it backwards. On TS depends on the country you come for, you get around 30% of your earnings (this is how much you get on your account, I know it is stated 60% but they take additional 30% for US tax), here I am not shore how much you get as I just joined and did not made any sales. There are lots of fun ways can gain points on cg trader . How about the Royalty Rate??? They had shoddy products but they created the illusion of having something amazing and that was better than a PC. Products should be grouped not only by name and category but also by poly count. This is not a "fight" between NoneCG and Turbosquid, but a struggle between different ways of doing business: the classic closed market or a more open one based on a Fair Business model and full comunication between the producer, the marketer and the customer. I think we just need so some massive killer models of epic proportions that the 3D modeling community cant ignore. Well, after a long search, I found a negative point from CGTrader compared to TS. I'm planing to start new discussion on this topic in near future, so i won't go into details here, i'll just ask did anybody tried to enter same keywords in TS and CGT search field? They will be very enlightening and useful to you especially if you have never built 3D models and don't know what to expect. Another thing that drove me crazy about Turbosquid was how you couldn't promote any of your social media and it made it very difficult to get your clients from let's say Facebook and Twitter to notice your artwork. It might be a good idea to see what the customer experience is with various market places by making an experimental purchase at each and seeing who has the most effective methods of enticing return visits and encouraging word-of-mouth bumps. ", Exactly, no one knows the model better than the one who made this model. Hello. We want to improve the site not make it worse :). The basic approach would be that every user start with a selection of a store template (including own label option and menu creation capability's) and starts filling his store with own products and products found in the large collective database.

Both are still growing, but it seems CGtrader is growing much more. Payout fees are just fractions of percent, not worth to consider. taken offline. But there are questions that are not achievable for TS, and they will not go to such steps, and it is this: 1. For example, I ran into this this morning. TS has more sales because : My sales are not still on par with TS, but I haven't published new models for quite some time, because I only have time to create models to enter challenges from time to time. Often offer to buy the models in 1020 times more expensive than the price at which the model was exhibited for sale. They recently changed their search engine over there and when you search for Free models it comes up with a few free ones and many more paid ones so from that perspective Turbosquid makes your life even harder lol.
But hey thats your call, That's sad, but true. although, the 3d printing industry is growing rapidly :D. I have to agree. TurboSquid goes down, It becomes miserable the users are ,,working from behind,, ! If I run the same test on Turbosquid or The3DStudio, I get almost exclusively original characters. CGTrader remains a young and very responsive team and listening to members - it's a great quality. I think we as sellers can do a lot to make cgtrader more interesting for buyers. It doesn't matter if the printing industry is growing fast. @dafunk @S/C. We can help here by simple putting the links to our work on our social media. Yes, at this point the level of sales of the TS is higher than the CGTrader and TS has a more flexible search system. And even if you sell the same models on other side you can advertise them as being the cheapest here. Payment Method If you think life is hard as a buyer you should try modeling for a living Making any money is a truly miserable experience. Basically just like Turbosquid has done they have become the one stop shop for everything. So true! I've often (not just at this site) downloaded "free" items to verify their quality before purchasing models from a vendorI had problems with 3-4 of the "free" items I looked at first here (having no idea there was a limit), and now I can download no more. To my repliers:
Sure you get a lot more income from The3Dstudio. and cgtrader is easy to navigate and great UI, Turbosquid is a very shit comparing to CGTrader, i dont like turbosquid i prefer CGtrader absolutely, I think it is more comfortable to use. Think about your future: The duality of 3D printing/CGmodels is a very complex marriage. We all agree that CGT is the better site and needs to win the fight but we all need to reach out to the really influential people and make sure they start promoting the site or we won't win. Chat with Support 24/7 CGTrader has the better platform from my point of view, better rates if i remember correct. https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/character/woman/female-hand-realistic https://www . I really enjoy the chance to get to know other people's opinions and experiences regarding how they sell, network and do business and that is something I have only been able to do here on CGT. Yes, CG Trader is the best now some bugs should be solved. Cubebrush. Machines have already replaced people making their jobs irrelevant in many fields already more and more customer service jobs have become automated, many store sales positions now are not needed because so much is being done online, the tolls on the highways now only use fast track or you get a letter in the mail telling you to pay it because there is no one in the booth anymore so you can't pay it on the road. Downside at CGTrader is as i've just been informed from Support is NO you can't sell the licence here and transfer it into another users name. And IMHO search is an area where CGT shoul focus first. For example, make affiliation partnerships between people/storeowners possible. Most people say you get more sales at Turbosquid than any other 3D marketplace, so even if you get a much lower royalty % in the end you get more money, and while this is true up to a point (NOT x80 sales in any case), what most people don't realize is what happens IF your products are NOT in Turbosquid but you continue to sell in other marketplaces and have a bit of patience. Having too many high poly models in 1 scene can considerably slow down rendering times, work flow and even crash your computer making the entire scene unusable. Turbosquid has a bot spying cgtrader prices. Site issues? @ Supercigaleha, ha, a good point about ,,the famous CheckMate,, :) TS . Beautifully put IterateCGI, let's hope it is signal for more than just Tubro's downfall, but hopefully the downfall of treating 3D creators like shit. Maybe some people don't want to bother about different programs compatibility, while others don't mind to spent time configuring things in different applications. There are currently no models in your cart. If the buyer decided to buy after inspecting a sample, the seller would deduct the sample price from another 3d model. If they want free models then they can go elsewhere!!! @tomislavveg, on the one hand i agree with you about that, but on the other hand if i would be looking for models i would almost certainly choose TS as my first choice and most likely as a last one before buying. They may not end up following your ideas, but they will certainly take them into account. (I prefer not to learn/spent time to handle all the different 3D applications and conversions) Send of two customers so far (here on CGt), hoe asked for a maya version of this model. or I can just sell on cgt and artstationm marketplace? This concept is not new and it seems to work well over here (http://market.envato.com/) You have to choose a category to get a refresh. What I read on different forums seems obvious, exclusivity no longer pays. In my experience often times a client will ask for certain models but then one must take into consideration what computer specs they have because you don't want your client to get frustrated with the models you buy. "Even being a diamond doesnt seem to give me the benefits of sale coz TS takes so much from my sales (everyone's sale) that i would hardly call it profit or any acceptable income. In one case, the model is promising, commercial, and then set a high price. Buyer can contact seller directly, which can save him/her lot's of time and frustrations. (so you basically pay for a fraud protection system for people hoe sell themselves out exclusively). We can't even communicate on Ts, and that in an age of supper connectivity, it's just the world on his head. I have met a bunch of really good artists here that I have had the pleasure of working with. I wouldn't ever use their site just on principle. [google][http://www.google.com|google4 ] CGTrader has a good plateform for selling already licensed things files but not selling the licence,your trapped into owning the licence. All that time that we didn't have to spent dealing with Turbosquid bad support went to more time for artistic work. Especially if the buyer asks to change something in the configuration of models or to clarify details. AFAIK buyers right to be refunded is protected by law. I had a conversation with Eduardas he confirmed that they will improve the feedback system. And if the buyer sees one and the same model on CGT and on TS, then the price will choose on CGTrader We even stopped publishing new models there. I still get more sales on TS, despite having adjusted all prices to compensate their extortions. Just uploading on turbosquid is a pain in the butt.

Thanks again guys, and let us know if you have any further comments or questions. This place is indeed different and allot closer to what we actually need, I can't imagine the core principal on witch this place is founded would change as it will prove to be the one and only way to be future proof in this supper connected world. I experienced this on other topics like the challenges, where CGT team took some ideas into consideration and applied some of them. I'm about to bail on this site now - unless I can find any other topics that I might be qualified to post toapparently if I'm friendly enough I can earn some points, but it's seriously unlikely that I'll find any topics to which I can actually contribute. You can change your subscription preferences at any time in the account settings. It is also wise to invest in good ideas that are future proof. He bought a cheap product (with a fake account) and post a bad rating. Large studios with "turbosquid" collaborate very limitedly. A rig is like a skeleton of a 3D model, which lets you move and pose it with little effort. 3D Model jimmy choo. That basically says paying customers aren't allowed access to supposedly "free" items. A little more than a year passed since our public disagreement with Turbosquid policies and behavior that ended our relationship as content creator and reseller. I removed all products from TS. So it was sorted in your favor afterall? See ourPrivacy Policyfor more information. No overt similarites in armor designs, guns, vehicles, naming- nothing. I'll ask my friend to get in touch with you for the unsolved support, as I think it is him who has to do that - not me. Sometimes 3D model can have some errors, or it was not 100% what buyer had imagined it will be. - Forcing people to choose a proper tagging to their objects so that we don't get scanned high poly print-ready objects in the way when we tick the "low-poly" filter, I've often (not just at this site) downloaded "free" items to verify their quality before purchasing models from a vendorI had problems with 3-4 of the "free" items I looked at first here (having no idea there was a limit), and now I can download no more. CGtrader has already surpassed Turbosquid in every Rank, and it has +1 million visits too: https://www.similarweb.com/website/cgtrader.com/?competitors=turbosquid.com, If anything buyers should get lots of points for buying. you should check out all the posts about 3D models quality. The Ts model does not support such thing and is not up to the task of modern time needs for this industry. Of course, as CGT reputation grows, this may change in the future (CGTrader has already beaten The3Dstudio in terms of statistics, but you also have to take into account that there are certainly a very significant amount of people coming here for 3D-printing only, which decreases the statistics in terms of regular CG models). ,,The only thing that has cgtrader extra is the freelance job,,?? The items from CG and TS do not appear very far from each other in Google. The reason the model is sold at low price .some models have so many other sellers which can lose models value . My price at the time was same both on Ts as on CGt but after some time position on CGt got better and sales was picking up. Renderer: Cyclse. Then someone ells will just create another CGt alike and Ts would have to keep buying these places ones a year, and after that it would have to buy them every month. IT'S A WASTE OF TIME. CGtrader better is : Design,User friendly,royalties etc all better . The other issue is that Turbosquid has been out there for longer. Imagine how much resorces and efforts are used by those clowns for this greedy Best price quality nonsense. Just my opinion, but look at homepage. video services, 3D viewers, social media , crowd funding platforms, etc.) I have been the victim repeatedly on TS. Get this item for $ when you bundle it with the items in your cart. clients will come where is a big diversificated data base of quality models (not only printable models) and artists will come where paying clients are. TurboSquid is garbage. CG Trader is easier to navigate, more stimulating perhaps than turbo squid. And CG Trader offers up to 94% royalty rate, where as Turbo Squid gives I believe 60% royalty rate CG Trader more open than Turbo Squid, and when registering, requires less personal information.
