Free 3D models! And I’m back on Patreon!
A lot of people have suggested me doing both! So that’s what we’re doing. I’m not a good business person, so instead of hoarding the models that people want for so long because I can’t think of a good way to monetize them, I’ll just release the models for everyone for free, update them and work on them, and trust in the fans to help me and support me in any way they want. No unfeasible rewards or complex tiers or polls or anything, just free models and pure donation. Partially inspired by others 3d artists running a similar Patreon, as well as the fans and friends that suggested it.
Which models?
As many of my old ones as I can, including Peridot, Muffet, Undyne… not only the high poly Blender versions, but lowpoly ports to be used elsewhere. As well as future models.
What’s the plan?
-I’ll clean up each old models to upload the 1st workable version, since they were intended just for renders, not for general use. Fixing their Blender rigs a little and whatnot. I’m already doing that, you can catch me at picarto.tv/wo262 streaming while I work on them.
-Progresively do the same with each model and release them little by little. Not all at once
-Keep updating the already uploaded models into new versions with fixes and small upgrades, either things I had planned or suggestions. That’s the best way to not keep people waiting!
-Work on lowpoly versions of the models and texture work, so the materials at least are compatible with Unreal, Unity for VRchat, SFM… But it will mostly be modelling and material work, I’m still undecided on rigs. There are people with more experience than me in VRchat and SFM rigs, the models with come with the crappy Blender rig that I made for my own use in the meantime
-Do random renders and scenes with the models
-Eventually make new models and characters
-More random updates like unseen renders, small tutorials, small prop models (like DONGS) etc
Where?
My Patreon is the same URL as before, Patreon.com/wo262 Follow me here, or there to see updates.
The models will be initially uploaded to Gumroad as 0$ product, since there’s pretty much no filesize or bandwith limitation, as well as being able to update a file, but if there are other limitations that don’t work, I will chose another site.
You already know my Picarto.tv/wo262
Thank you!^^
