You can commission people to make custom avatars for you if you don't know how to make one yourself. This is a fairly complex process, at least if you want a nice one that has full rigging and mocap support using external cameras and body tracking. I met someone at a party who does this as a side gig and brings in about $15K/year from it.

They can also include animations, emotes, outfits, etc.

There are some artistically impressive avatars out there.

Custom avatars and worlds.

Avatar creation requires a strong understanding of 3d modeling tools and some level of shader coding in many cases.

World creation is also 3d modeling, plus scripting to generate games, doors, etc, if the world has interactivity.

It’s quite lucrative if you’re good at it.

People that make 3D models and sell them on Etsy style websites for ~$50 each. Others then gather and buy them. It require basic skills in Unity to use them.

tbhimo, this is beyond bad omen to VRC and VR at large from profitability angle. To me it looks the exact path that Twitter went down.

What is a bad omen and why? That most of the creators are Japanese? Why?
