Returning Freebie: Claire for A4/V4 & Morphs++

Due to life being kind of complicated, I haven't had a chance to repost my 2011 holiday freebies like I had hoped. I've gone ahead and reuploaded one of them, Claire for A4/V4 and V4 Morphs ++, over at Renderosity Free Stuff. Claire was one of my contributions to the FaerieWylde 2011 Winter Solstice celebration. This is the first time I've ever uploaded anything over there, so I guess we'll see how it goes.





I think you'll need to log-in at Renderosity to download. Click here. Instructions are included on the Rendo entry and in the readme.

Good Causes: ART-Collaborations' Firesale Continues

For those of you watching the ART-Collaborations Firesale, MissB has donated a beautiful collection of seamless tiles. Check them out here or here. They're free to all, but please remember donations to help Ann's parents would be very sincerely appreciated. Thank you! :)

Good Causes: ART-Collaborations' Firesale

I won't be doing much of this type of thing within my blog pages... However, there are exceptions to every rule.

Sad news from ART-Collaborations--one of my favorite vendor teams. Ann's parents lost their pets and most of their possessions to a house fire. Ann is wonderful lady and is always doing generous, sweet things through out Poserverse. You can read more about her parents' situation here. All proceeds from the ART-Collaborations site store's sales will be going to her parents. You can also make donations here. Some artists around Poserverse are rallying around Ann and her family and contributing items or proceeds towards relief, as well. There is a thread at Daz3d's forum with details here.

If you're a digital artist that uses Daz|Studio or Poser, you have several other options to help.


Diamonds & Pearls, donated by JasmineSkunk, is an add-on for Star Struck Twinkle (with a few bonuses that match BeMine). The pack is free-for-all members of the ART-Collaborations' store, but donations are very much appreciated. Thank you, JasmineSkunk, for paying forward some cosmic kindness helping Ann's family! :)

Lassie24 from Cute N Toonz has stepped up with two other fantastic options. Proceeds from the sale of Spring Time for Cookie's Goth Gown and Cook Tunic for Cookie's Tunic Dress will be donated to the donation fund for Ann's parents. Thank you, lassie24, for paying forward cosmic kindness and helping out, as well. :)

For the 2D graphic enthusiasts out there, Kriss is donating the proceeds from the sale Sharing Love 1 and Sharing Love 2 to the donation fund. Thank you, Krissy, for paying it forward and helping out! :)

As for myself, I've donated a couple of things. Since, however, I've never ventured into the commercial marketplace and don't have a store, I'm leaving their distribution up to Ann. I'm not quire sure how that's going to be handled yet. There are two 3D-related packs that I've donated. The other is a 2D pack of .PNG images. Stay tuned find out more. You might also want to watch the Daz3D forum thread here.

Thanks for reading. :)

New Freebie - Cookie Too Cute PNGs

Thanks to the chaotic nature of my life lately, the arrival of my newest freebie is delayed. Just some cute "Valentine-esque" images.

New Freebie: Enchanted for Littlest Witch

I have a new freebie to share today. I'll get a permanent web page set up for it in a few days. I wanted to get it packed and available so nothing happens to in the meantime. This is a Poser shader material set that I used in several of my personal 2011 Halloween renders. To use this set, you'll need ART-Collab's Littlest Witch for Candy and Candy (The Gumdrop Base Figure). You will also need Poser 5 or later. These materials will NOT work in Daz|Studio.

In the archive, you'll get material settings for: The Littlest Witch dress, gloves, socks, shoes, and hat. I've saved the materials as MAT-Poses for easier use. Please note: there are no .jpg files for bump maps, displacement maps, or textures. These are strictly Poser procedural shaders. Click on the preview for full-size.



When rendering, please remember that Poser shaders are sensitive to lighting. The results you'll get depend on your light settings in each scene. The images for the promo were rendered in Poser 7 with the LW_Light1 set that comes with ART-Collab's Littlest Witch. There is more information in the "readme" file enclosed in the shader archive.

Enjoy!

New Freebie: Zombie Fae PNGs

"Who said dead girls can't like candy and pink? There's more to unlife than brains."

Brand new for you: 4 cute zombie-faerie .PNG images. With a plastic star wand in one hand, and nice big lollipop in the other, this dead girl is ready to rock your creations. Click on the preview to enlarge it.



The idea for a cute "Gummy" zombie dressed sort of hap-hazardly as a faerie came to me a while back. Then life kind of got derailed, but I did get back to it. And,yes, the "costume" does sort of look cobbled together and hap-hazard because it is. LOL I didn't want it to look TOO perfect. A zombie is dead, after all. Zo-Fae, as I've kind of dubbed this creation, has made a couple of appearances in pictures for Halloween. And, I made the few stand-alone images that are included in this zip to share.

I do realize the delivery of these is a bit late--pushing the boundaries of usability for this year--and I'm sorry. If you would like the set, please click here to download it.

Anyhow... Enjoy... Have lots of pink zombie-faerie fun. :) May you, and all of yours, have a happy safe, Halloween. :)

Limited Freebie: Simply Halloween for DeeDee's Spring Fling

Well...

I had all kinds of ideas to get out there as freebies for Halloween this year. However, in typical fashion, my life fell apart and we had several family situations to deal with, including the passing of loved one. :( It truly is getting to be the story of my life... :(

I do have, however, one limited-time freebie I'm going to offer here. It's a very simple texture set for DeeDee's Summer Breeze - Spring Fling dress for the original Millennium Girls from Daz. I started the set with the intention of going back and making it a little fancier, but I'm simply not going to have time because I'm probably the world's slowest texturer, if not the world's worst... :(

A preview. Please click on it to see the full-size image.



If you'd like to download this pack, please click here. I'll only be leaving it up for a few weeks. ;)
