Modeling service

[glorybound]

Okay, thus far, I do all my own work (modeling, texturing lighting, post....) But, I am so busy, I need to contract out the modeling portions. Does anyone have any good resources? I need someone to do the non-subjected modeling part. So, I'll provide the sketches or drawings, and they will do the modeling. I am willing to pay 1/4 of what I get for the modeling, but I am not getting a whole lot now-a-days, so they have to be good, fast, and proficient. A typical exterior project might bring in between $1,200 and $2,200, so their cut would be $300 to $550. That's not a lot in the states, so I am willing to look elsewhere. I personally think it's a fair price for here, so it might be a whole lot of money for some elsewhere. If the person is honest, and hard working, I would love to bless someone with good money. (So outsourcing oversees isn't out of the question)


If you have any references, please send them my way. I know of one guy, and I tried him on this first overload project of mine, but he has missed his first deadline. He was supposed to have the model today, which I promised the owner, but he hasn't even started, so it'll be two days late, and I look bad!

Bobby, I would post an example of the models......from a small house to a stadium for 1/4 is a big different in hours....and also the format...Revit is not a common application for visualization......(We should get together sometime, taking in consideration that you are the only legal vray user that I know in Minnesota beside myself.)

Well, that's why I used a percent. We should meet up, but I am way up north, and I am assuming you are in the cities. It wouldn't have to be in Revit, but it would have to be modeled good.

This is the type of work I am now looking at. Now, these are renderings, so his expectations are high, and they do large projects. http://www.landrydesigngroup.com/New%20Classic/4/1.htm

That's pretty fancy. I guess then we can push up the prize for modeling to a gazillion dollars (said with mini me expression)
whoehahaha

whoever they used did a great job, but I wonder why the are not using them anymore. These guys build spec homes... so, they design, build, and then sell, which seems odd for such luxury. You would think, with that kind of money, you would want to be apart of the design process

Modeling on those kind of jobs is 50-75% of the total work load, sometimes more. If you're doing interiors and custom furniture too then it's 80-90. And 2-3k per image is far too low.

[glorybound]

These would be the exception. I agree, complexity matters, and these are pretty complex. I would move the percentage around according to the complexity. Custom furniture would be another story

I agree about with all the comments!! they should pay at least 2.5k-3k per image with a minimum of 3 views...and interiors with stock furniture!!
the classic ones are easier...once you have the 2-3 type of windows that they have and the wall components is very straight forward.... also it depends if they provide all the info in one shot.

I would help you just to see how is working with somebody in town.....every time when I used somebody overseas they don't finish the project on time and because I was trying to find the right person I always modeled my stuff just in case and I was right.
