How much to expect to pay for custom art.

Read that before you get your hopes up of getting something like that for $50.

I had a quote of over $250 a day for a "good" character so you might want to keep in mind that a custom model either animated or not will be very expensive. When it normally takes 4 to 5 days for a character model to made it adds up quite fast.

Wish I could help but animation and rigging is where I dont have the experience. Need to try someday but for now I will stick to the statics.

add another $100.00 onto that and you have custom characters

$50 wouldn't even cover the cost of the electricity required to run my computer for the time it would take to do the job.

Model Packs are not made for one person alone (ie. custom work). Anywhere you go, if you want the sole rights to something it will cost much more, because the artist cannot sell it multiple times. Additionally; if you ask an artist to make something specific for you, but let them retain the resell rights...they may or may not decide to go for it (which is where you can make suggestions in various threads around here, and hope someone makes them).

What you are asking for, as far as the price you've quoted, is pretty ludicrous...to be honest.

For that kind of work (created by someone who knows what they're doing, and can follow through with it), you can also expect to pay some of the money up front as well.

Don't take this the wrong way, but this is how this type of work is done; especially at the level you are expecting.

Model packs can be sold thousands of times. A custom model is (usually) only sold once.

You should know that if he accepts your "bid" then you are getting 4 high quality models for a really good price.

he looks like this becouse he is not textured, pluse he is a little short as i need to scale him up. no big deal and i will make him taller and with a suit.You said the poly count makes no difrence? so if they turned out to be like 20000 pollys this is ok, this here is only 4000 polys, I was going to add alot of detail.

Certainly a bargain there, and made very fast, the face is very good.
You could probably make a pack of marines and sell them, id buy them straight off, so that goes to show they are usefull, as I am the Great Umpa.

ok, sifi you will get, it will take awile to do as the texturing and detail take awile to do. I have to unwrape all the detail wich takes even longer. the unreal engine can take alot of pollies but fpsc cant, so what ill do is ill make 2 difrent coppies. one high poly and one that is not.

With lights, and more sci fi, like the soldiers in x10

ok, made a new mesh,lol, darn it. this one looks real close to the ones above, not exsact replicas but real close. if i put to much into it the thing will never run in fpsc or x10. so It has alot of the same shape and styel. big boots with a buig suit but not to big. I do have the textures and am putting them to good use. will show a preview when done.

My whole thing is, (nice work by the way Daniel, way better than anything I ever did), you can't really have a direct rip of Gears Of War, because first you have to worry about copyright infringement, if the characters look oddly alike, I don't think Micro$oft would have any qualms about contacting / suing you about it, but it's good if you are looking for something SIMILAR but DIFFERENT.
