I would also like to know how do the payment (?).

If only you knew what that sounded like after looking at the screenie! lol! Take a look at the top of this board for a thread entitled How much to expect to pay for Custom Media.

well 1st of all modeling is a very complex skill that takes time and alot of work so dont expect it to be cheap. for a fully animated model you are looking at anything from $80 to well some even charge up to $200 and maby even more.

yes i know it is expensive but maby save yourself some moneyand lear modeling. sure it takes a while but its great when you learn you get free modeling software i use google sketch up you should check it out and also for texturing paint.net

hope this helped you

computer cookies are not tasty i found that out the hard way

There is a stickie about this titled How much to expect to pay for Custom Media

Oops, sorry.
I didn't see that until after I posted.
Oh well, now they have a clickable link.

I noticed a few things about our little hottie in the picture...
1) You can see her panties. (bulge?)
2) Her boobies are lopsided as if they might be fake (as in stuffed with something)
3) She has big hands
4) She has a thing on her neck covering the part where a guys adams apple would be

Point is... is that a she or is that a guy dressed up as a girl?

Maybe you could modify and re-texture the Thug model or something.

Whatever floats your boat.
To each his own, I reckon.

PS..I'm only kidding

You could try modifying a stock mesh into her though.
It doesn't seem like it would be that difficult if you do not start from scratch.
That would be faster which should be cheaper.

Quote: "I would also like to know how do the payment (?) "

I use PayPal to transfer funds over the internet.

The price depends on your desired quality, and other factors. (low quality = low price because its faster)

Well, considering minimum wage in the UK is £5.73 per hour, also artists would probably charge more per hour, let's say £7. If that artist were to work on designing, planning, modelling, skinning, texturing, rigging and animating that model then it would probably take 3 days to complete if you're lucky. Most artists would work for about 7 hours per day so 7 x 7 = 49. 3 days, that's 49 x 3 = 147. £147 for your character model. Of course, it could take longer so you're looking at a lot more than that.

Well, at least yours doesn't have that bulge.
It looks great so far, so I am sure it will turn out fine.

Why would you pay for something to be used in a game only you will see?

I was thinking the same thing.

Most game models can be ripped for personal use in their licenses anyway. (game modding etc)
As long as you are not distributing it or reselling it then who cares.

Nice work Henry Ham.

Unfortunately, I can't pay at the moment because
of my young age.

But I could pay the model at the end of March (I hope).

Maybe you shouldn't be looking at 3d lingerie either then.
If you are only going to use the model for personal use and you don't redistribute the copyrighted media,you might as well rip a model from a game.

Conjured Entertainment,

Please don't encourage users to rip Models from games for use under any circumstances. It's a precedent thats not to be encouraged as its not allowed around here as far as I am concerned at least.

If I see any I will not let such threads containing ripped models stand.

There are people who care.

In the real world, people charge from $500 to $10,000 for a modeled,textured,skinned and rigged, and animated model. But seeing FPSC's capabilities with things such as how bad the AI is and how we are unable to make cutscenes in the game engine, it would be less than $100. You should consider yourself getting it very cheap from Henry Ham.

I said...

Quote: "Most game models can be ripped for personal use in their licenses anyway. (game modding etc)

Meaning that most licenses allow taking the model out of the games file (ripping) for modifying for personal use.
When I said "ripped" i did not mean it as ripp-off.
I never suggested he do anything outside of the license agreeements.

Sorry you misunderstand what I said.


Quote: "

I never said anything about making a thread.
ON the contrary, I said..."for personal use ...As long as you are not distributing it or reselling it..."
Meaning that they would NOT make a thread, since that would be distributing it and not personal use.

OKAY Uman, I won't say anything about ripping anymore since we have different definitions.

Thanks for asking nicely, and I'm sorry if I over-reacted at first.

This is the Silent 3 main character, modded from a gorgeous blonde to a ahem, brunette.

You are right alimpo83, that is 'Heather' from "Silent Hill 3".

I had never played that game before so I did not recognize it.
I do not have that game so I don't know what its license states.

But I do know one thing...unless the guy at that websites where Lexi got this works for Konami, then the model is 'ripped' (Uman's definition) anyway.

So, there you go Uman... lock it!
