This game is free so people will do models for free, (Me included.)
So you better be a very good modeler.
What models have you made? (You should post some pics to see how good you are.)

You haven't specified any license. Also you need to update your profile website.

Sorry about that. 

I don't think that anyone would take your offer, but if it works, i would have no problem with it.  Of course, the moderators and Martino would probably think differently.  This sounds like an interesting deal, but if i were to ever do it, first, i would have very high standards, and it would have to be textured.  Sorry.

I don't think that any one will buy a model if you can't texture it.
If I were you I would learn.
(For me I like making my all the models in my tech my self.)

How about some free samples for Dark Magic?  I've never seen your work before...

You should establish yourself as an exceptional modeler before you offer a service like you did.  I would not want to pay you unless you would do every step in the modeling process, which I think texturing is included.  Also, the models would have to be exactly the way I want them to be like.

Paint? PAINT? PAINT?!?!?!

Dude, never, ever use microsoft paint. EVER. Get either GIMP, Photoshop, or Paint.NET. GIMP and Paint.NET are free, though Photoshop has the most tutorials, and is supposed to be very good.

While I see what you're trying to do, since these days, money is scarce, and I never seem to have enough (since I plan on buying a car this summer, since Drivers Ed starts in the fall). If you want to make money from models, sell them to professionals using websites. You need to upload models or model packs you think people would really need, and then upload to sites that let you charge money for models. Dunno if you'd be able to sell anything, but who knows? I've seen people selling friggin' STOCK ART for hundreds of dollars. God...

I agree with modman, either work for free, or at least start by working for free. Good luck selling anything though if you can't texture.

You mean turbo squid, don't you?

Yeah, I see what you mean. I do all my modeling for free, as with all my projects, but I like to set up a donation page in hopes some money bags could say "wow, that's great work. I think I'll give him a few bucks for his troubles". So far, I've made a grand total 0.00000 cents (CAN).

 ;D

Was going to put up ads on my website, but I lost the ad code in the crash, and am now too busy to add it in quite yet. I hope to make $2.00 by the end of the year!  ;D

Yes, donations are nice since they are unobstrusive, though don't expect anything. Usually you need to be something pretty big before people start donating (large scale freeware games, wikipedia (raised MILLIONS), and other large sites, particularily ones that perform services. Of course, you could just do modeling, and state kindly that you are accepting donations.

Still, don't get your hopes up, as results may be disapointing. Of course, do bear in mind that money is not the reason we do this...

If you want to earn money making models, why not write up a resume' and send it into some games studios like EA Games and Blizzard?

Please show us some samples of your work so we can decide whether your models are worth it.

Aside from that i don't think selling your stuff is quite in the ethos Glest (Open Source).

Someone should find that link to the freelance guy who did the low poly LOTR models that was posted on this forum a while back. That was a great example of how good you need to be to be a freelance modeller and proved that being a good 2d artist is at least as important as the 3d side.

Found him: Emperor Leto. :)

Fluffy, you should check out some of his work.  I think that he was a professional modeler, but his models weren't perfect.  They just looked good at the distance Glest is at by default.

Oh, yes. I remember that guy. I was never part of the community but this isn't the first time I've seen this link...

The way I see it, texturing is just as important as modeling, if not more. Think of it this way, we can have a game without models, but not without texturing (exceptions being console text based games, which I've never played). Games can use 2D sprites for the entire thing without a single model. As for models, without a texture, it may ot even be possible to tell what they are!!!

PS: Glad you stuck with the free choice. Everyone loves free stuff. I mean, I use free webbrowsers, free firewalls, free antivirus, free modeling programs, free image programs, free wallpapers, free screensavers, free games (not all, of course, since there are plenty of great commercial games), free this, free that! Gotta love FREE! ;D

Eh I don't think I wanna model because I'm pretty sure, with Blender, and downloading everything else, I'll run out of space in my cpu (nearly full alrdy)
