Models used created by: KuhnIndustries | cobe571 | masluch | Quandtum | Jeff2207 | Thomasf95 | InfameDavid | metalix | eddie32 | TwoLpGamer | Dante | MattMump
So I've rolled this idea around for quite a while but was never sure if it would work or if you guys would think it's a good idea. So I figured I'd just ask. So here are my thoughts.
Premier model packs would be a collection of models, anywhere from 6-24 models created by an artist that we would commission based on a particular subject matter/theme. We would contact artists on the site like KuhnIndustries or DennisH2010 to create a model pack of their choosing. This would be a paid gig that we would flip the bill for initially. Once a model pack was completed it would be added to the site for a cost. I'm thinking somewhere between $10-$20 per pack, this would depend on what the initial investment in the pack was. Then you guys would be able to buy and download the pack and use however you wanted. This would not affect your bandwidth, so if one pack was 1GB of models and textures it would have no impact on your monthly bandwidth allowance.
We would incur the initial cost of the models, then sell them to you. Once we have recooped our initial cost of investment on the model pack we would split the profits between reinvesting in more model packs and making donations to the Blender Foundation.
So you can see why I'm a little leery to do this, because if noone buys the model packs we lose money. So let me know what you think about the idea. Would you guys be interested in something like this?
Thanks,
matthew
