Hello,
I have been a member here for quite awhile and I love the community but I need a bit of help, I recently started my own company where we take care of advertising and printing Artists work for them, some of the other things we provide are monthly jam sessions and also sit downs to discuss new techniques and advice for getting into the industry. Link to website is below in my signature.
Well one of the things I have been throwing around in my mind with my business partner is the idea of 3d printing, The idea is you can join the site and sell in life model replica’s of your 3d work. I want to be able to help the 3d artist gain money also. To be totally honest I have seen some 3d work I wouldn’t mind having on my desk as a statuette the only problem is it is an expensive process.
The machine itself can print up to a 15" Maquette but that would be very expensive most likely around "$800 - $1000 for the consumer. The machine I am looking into will fabricate and also paint the Maquette so you wouldn’t be getting just a blank 3d Maquette it would be painted fully.
My question to you is what is the most you think you would pay for a 9" replica of your favorite 3D Artists concept or even your own?
