Fantasy Game Character

I've always wanted to create my own game with torque since TGE. Academy of Immortal Souls but development has paused because of my programming limitations. People tell me I can make nice characters so I want to make a character students and indie studios can use for prototype build or show offs their game mechanics.

Carlitos can be an NPC for your game for just $1. What do you guys think? is it worth it? I included the occlusion map just in case you want to color it yourself. I also want to include a 2h sword later for the same price.

Looking good!

I think a good idea to sell charakter's would be to incloud a standart game rig with basic animation like : Run,Back,Side,Death1,Swim, Attack,pain, etc.

Then also incloud a DAE with rig and animation, so it can be easy import to t3d, or other engines.

A lot programmer buy such character art, about they don't have skills or time to create 3D art.

This also help to save time for prototyp work. Ok, $1 would be a bit cheap for all that, but you can easy ask for a bit more, when it have a rig and basic animation and DAE format.

Hi thanks for the feedback D Fasel, I really like the stuff you make here on GG. Animation would be great I guess but I was thinking people can use Mixamo or Geppetto Auto-Rigging Tool for Blender (WIP).

To be honest, I don't know how to export the animations with dae, I used to know with dsq.

But I am taking that in consideration, thanks!
