Can I Sell Max Trial Ver. Exported Model?

Is it possible to use 3ds max trial version to sell my models to marketplace without getting sued for this?

Previously I was a graphic designer, In the previous job I got my hands on (3ds max 2020, Unfold3d, Itoo software plugins, maxscript custom made plugins and substance painter)

I just love how 3ds max UI gives everything needed right in front of me according to my currently active tool.

 

Now I'm a fronted developer, had to change my job because I wasn't creative enough.

Currently my monthly income is 13,000BDT or $106.91USD from local web dev it firm working 10 hours daily using which I barely run my family. 

To become stable from this financially unstable situation I decided to make some kind of income source which will give me a few extra bucks monthly.

So I found out that I can sell 3d models to turbosquid and fab to generate an income source.

But currently it's impossible for me to afford 3dsmax. Still in 2025, I'm very fluent in 3ds max new 2026 version which i installed(trial) in current web dev office PC(i7 14700K 32GB DDR5 6400Mhz),

I found out that most of the things are in the same place and still everything i need is right in front of me when modeling in max.

 

Current game asset workflow will be modeling, unwrapping in max -> armor paint / krita for texture painting -> back to max for baking.

I'm ready to give large percentage% of my hard work marketplace models revenue to Autodesk if they ask for it. But current situation I'm unable to manage money to get max.

 

This is the last hope,

Please help.

Trial version can't use for commercial , you can do what you want as the rate they pursuing infringement is very low when your income was very low and the infringement was weak
but if possible , you'd better sell model on blend or unreal , they are free

How would buyers even notice that I used a trial version of max? It's not like they'll report me to Autodesk for doing this right?

Yeah I definitely feel bad because of using multiple accounts just to get the trials, I would buy 3ds max definitely If I could afford it.

Yes I want to use blender, but I'm more comfortable with max; My question is, will Autodesk spy on my accounts for earning my first few bucks doing 3d. I have no idea how will I make enough money or how professionals make that much money to pay off their software bills and also their personal expenses. What I know is I can sell my 3d models to actually make some money from doing 3d,

the income is based on your country,per capita GDP of Bangladesh was about $2600 and more than $60000 of usa , that's unsolvable situation
when you run your trial max , autodesk will get the info , they may send lawyer's letter when they think necessary
