VFX artists have several choices when it comes to purchasing 3D models, but Sketchfab Store (www.sketchfab.com/store) is the first website to offer a real time 3D preview of every model – including topology, textures, and UVs – for every asset. Right now, everything in the marketplace is on sale at 25% discount if you use code BLACKFRIDAY at checkout. The offer runs through November 25th.
The Store uses a browser-based 3D player that includes a “Model Inspector” that lets you break down every aspect of a 3D model before you purchase. The inspector not only lets you view each texture independently (e.g. Roughness, metallic, normal map) but also allows you to view topology, normal direction, and even see the UV maps. And all aspects are viewable in both 3D (from all angles) and texture space 2D.
The inspector means buyers can purchase their models with confidence, taking out some of the guesswork traditionally associated with 3D digital files online. The Sketchfab viewer also supports VR and AR out of the box, providing additional ways to check out the store’s content.
Brands currently purchasing from the Sketchfab store include Apple, Facebook, Arri, and Magic Leap
For 3D content creators, Sketchfab provides the ultimate tools for showcasing their work as well as 70% in commission on every sale and flexibility to “set your own price” without any ongoing commitment or exclusivity. Listing models for sale is straightforward with no need to prepare turntables, screenshots, or different renderings because everything is rendered in 3D straight from your files.
To take advantage of their current discount offer, check out the Sketchfab Store. Or if you’re interested in becoming a seller, you can learn more here.
