Honestly, as a 3D modeler, what is your value proposition for me to have my assets on your platform? Why should I choose your platform over a platform where i get tens or hundreds of dollars for a single sale, compared to a Spotify model, where i might or might not get few dollars a month.
3D modeling is a labour intensive job and the market is way smaller than music or movies, meaning its way harder to get an audience large enough for this kind of service. Even with a audience large enough, could you guarantee I would receive as much as from other services?
Also, at $5 a month pricepoint you’re primarily going to attract below average modelers. Such a low pricepoint means the creator is not going to get much, considering the processing fees & comission and sharing the revenue with other creators.
However, as a consumer I like the idea. But as a creator I really don’t like it. If the subscription would be $50+, i would consider it.
Thanks for taking the time to reply - you have a great points.

You're right, the value proposition is not great for modelers. Probably one of the reasons why the site currently isn't a good idea.

You're right, I would not be able to guarantee that. Modelers are still free to post any asset to other services.

This is really great feedback. You're right - the creators/modelers need to get paid more. This would mean charging more a month, like you mentioned. Thanks again for taking a look and giving some great advice.
