I think the white generic 3d guy (sometimes he's orange or blue) is becoming more and more of a cliché in microstock. And 3d renders like these start to feel a little bit dated, perhaps.
On a technical level I think the white model is a bit too blobby. His head seems disfigured and the way he is holding the shopping cart looks strange.
Agreed. The modeling isn't very attractive. The shopping cart doesn't look like a shopping cart. You didn't take the time to deform the bag in the cart. And the posing needs work.
Your derivitives are more interesting, but I don't see much use for them.
Well, the person who started making those anonymous white renders (or at least the best) was a microstock top seller for years. Probably made quite a bit of money.
Simply copying that concept isn't likely to be anywhere near as successful... It just looks like an off-brand copy. You have to come up with something of your own.

Ok , but there were sales upon that images on 2016 , overall the amount where pretty low on whole , i,m afraid that if i do improvements on these scenes and render again the money making scenario would be equal to the past . :)
Noedelhap do you know where these are used , i have sales ranging from 10-25 per day , i don,t know where this is used , may be for employees in corporate,s ?
Whats about backgrounds or seamless patterns like these

I've seen the 3d generic guy (not yours) on websites and in powerpoint presentations.
The first seamless pattern looks like a cheap MSPaint illustration.
The second one looks like the ribbon is made from plastic.
The third one, I have no idea what I'm looking at. But I don't think there's any commercial value.
I hate doing this, but dude...
You gotta take some serious classes, and I mean from professionals. Perhaps extra focus on drawing the human form if that's what you wanna do, because d@mn... That's all I can say.
If you're making vectors for stock you have to make them of interest to as many potential buyers as possible, stock imagery being all about volume of sales. You have to think how many potential buyers will need a man in a children's playground with a monkey on his back whilst he takes a selfie, and at the same time a woman behind him does something, I'm not sure what, shields her face? How many buyers will need this particular scenario? It doesn't help that the figures aren't convincing at this stage either.I hate doing this, but dude...

learning while working would be more preferable for me :) any suggestions please ?

"Please give me advice so I can argue with you and ignore what you're saying."

"a woman is showing anger while a young playful adult is getting a selfie with a monkey"
Ask yourself: why would a designer need that illustration?
Not exactly award winning ideas, I just made them up, but I'm pretty confident they'll sell better than a woman showing anger while a young playful adult is getting a selfie with a monkey.
Hahaha. All I could think of was the woman was angry about the monkey being used as a 'tourist trap'.

That's where good keywording and an accurate title become extremely important. Otherwise, just by looking at it, it's pretty much impossible to figure out what's going on. Could it be a metaphor for a ruined marriage in Costa Rica? A gentle concern for a supernova explosion? A social commentary on the Japanese sex doll market?

To use as an illustration in a book on making money from selling stock 3D illustrations. Specifically the chapter on what sells and what doesn't... no prizes for guessing which column this one goes in.
It is a bit worrying if that's what you came up with when brainstorming content that might be in high demand. Just off the top of my head... the first thing I thought of was a guy sleeping in bed and you can see loads of cash stuffed under his mattress. That could appeal to anyone writing an article about lack of confidence in the banking system, bank closures and bailouts etc.
How about someone with a shopping cart jammed full of milk and bread which people can use any time there's panic buying, the same for cars nose to tail at the pump due to fuel shortages... some tropical location covered in snow to represent crazy weather patterns... some fat cats in human clothing to represent 'fat cats'... someone buying alcohol/smokes/medicine/transport with bars of gold to represent excessive price hikes... someone charging an electric car etc etc

thanks for the suggestions , and can anybody survive in any stock sites without volume while producing the above mentioned kind of illustration in a appealing manner

yes, you can survive with a small portfolio, but not likely with this kind of illustrations. As a point of reference, I consider 10000 a big port. A small port is something in the vicinity of 500-1000.
It could work, but you'd need to ask yourself what you can do better than the gazillions on that topic which are already on all of the sites. Or what you could do different, but is still what enough buyers want to make it worth your while."a woman is showing anger while a young playful adult is getting a selfie with a monkey"

I try to illustrate the theme " the kid in you " i try to convince this showing the opposite .
what about creating illustrations based on
holidays and events in order
