Sorry to say this, but the texture quality that you achieve with your overkill workflow (model each stone…) can be achieved in a fraction of the time. In fact, listing the time that you need to create one texture…you would get fired at every studio. Simply because you need 1.5 years for 38 textures, each 2028x2048, which is way over the average time to create this kind of quality, does not justify the price you ask for.
In general, you can not apply hourly rates overall. When you get an hourly rate for studio work, you ‘sell’ the work once, therefore the high rate/hour. At a marketplace you sell it multiple times.

Look at the Unity asset store prices. The same price level will have adjusted here in a year or so.

The entire indie/hobby developer scene is hilarious Like kids with toys testing what is possible.

There’s no need to apologize, I do agree with you about many points. I work in a large studio (as a texture artist, obviously). Moreover, we do not model each stone there – we just don’t have time for it. And the quality standards are considerably lower, but that is actually true for many studios. Sometimes we use generators, sometimes we model, but not in such details. Occasionally we spend a week to create a complicated texture, but never more than that.

Speaking about my textures at unreal marketplace, it’s my hobby. I enjoy creating quality textures, no matter how time-taking it may be to make them perfect. I spend as much time as I need for each texture, until its quality satisfies me. Traveling around the world, I take photos of interesting surfaces to make a good texture afterwards.

And the most important thing – I do not force anyone to buy my collection. My time and my work cost $150. It’s one’s personal choice whether to buy or not. Fortunately, I’m not the only one who creates textures, so everyone may find the product that corresponds to their expectations of price and quality.
