lovey ass deagle. If you are good at character modeling at all, you would make a great profesional modeler. :O

im only good with weapons and its one with a lower amount of files

I would suggest an aircraft.

I would actually buy a nice aircraft.

And it has the lowest files.

Ac130 models on sketchup are priced at $90+ (the $15 one is adobe illustrator) and if you make a good one and price it low, I am sure people will buy it. It's all about looking around and finding what would be a good deal. An AC-130 is fairly easy to make, just needs good textures.

It is popular now because call of duty has an AC-130 in it, so now everyone knows what it is. If someone were searching for a good ac-130 model, they would find out that that the decent ones start at $90. If you made a good one and sold it for $5, you would most likely make more money than the guy selling the one for $90.

But then if you search AK-47, you get tons of results, and tons of free ones as well. Alot of the free ones:

are really good. There are even better ones that cost lower than $10 and are pro quality. There doesn't really seem to be a market if you make a decent AK-47 unless you make it free and then people begin to recognize your name and browse through your priced stuff.

You can make an M1 Abrams and wind up competing with these

which are both free and of really good quality (generally the people willing to pay money are looking for great quality and textures as well), so making an M1 Abrams would not be efficient.

I made all this up off the top of my head.

-stuff-

there's no way i could compare with those, and i really suck when it comes to textures.

You could even be better off making a really nice model that might sell for $10 or $12 and selling it for $1.  More people might buy it that way = more profit.

Practice makes perfect.


G36c price lowered http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/549815 1$
I think if you became active in a modeling community and linked to your turbosquid page in your sig you might get some buys.
Just a suggestion.

I'm not entirely sure the legality of this, but I think it would be a pretty good idea to model each of the PMG parts meticulously and put them all in a pack for a little entrepreneur  My Gun 3D action. Here's what the guy that made PMG said on the topic:

One last thing: feel free to use the weapons you design here as reference for your own projects such as animations, 3D modeling, etc. But please be kind enough to credit me and post a link to this site.

It doesn't specifically state anything about commercial or non-commercial use, but it's still something I'd probably want to get in contact with him about first, especially if I were to sell it on Turbosquid.

A microphone I made for the Plastic Modelers competition, a little diversion from the gun and actually the first thing that I've modeled that isn't a gun (that I can remember).
