    I'm glad he has brought some joy to you today.  Don't forget he's rigged so pose away!

  • tsroemitsroemi Posts: 2,782

    He's really so sweet, and I love that he's poseable. Thank you!

    Thank you so much for the gnome @NewGuy!

    Thank you for the gnome, @NewGuy yes

    Very easy to pose and with your displacement tip, the hat and the boot look really nice.

    Other items used linked in the gallery: 'Run little gnome, Run!'

    The bag used can be downloaded on ShareCG and was created by @Nathrai (it's simply scaled and placed in the back of the gnome, to make it look like the gnome is carrying it):

    Thank you, @NewGuy! The gnome is adorable.

  • NewGuyNewGuy Posts: 211

    @tsroemi, @3Diva, @emanuela1, @caravelle, @WinterMoon. @joanna you are all very welcome!

    @Elor, great image!  I'm afraid to think of what he will look like after that cat catches him.

    It's the pom-pom! My two gingers go for them always. The little guy is in my cart, thank you @NewGuy he is precious.

    You're welcome @memcneil70.

    @Payat Parin Shiny shaders!  He'll probably bounce, he is a stuffy after all!!

    Thank you for the new Gnome, NewGuy. Richard Haseltine is not so sure, though...

    Here is my three paw, Simon going after Stuffy's pom pom while his big brother Charlie is deciding what Stuffy is. Obviously not a squirrel or a bird, his favorite YouTube stars.

    I did my best to show Simon's partial front leg, but make no mistake, he can go from zero to sixty and bounce off walls, slice through plastic and metal with the knives he has on his other three paws.

    Nice renders @barbult and @memcneil70.  Glad to see he mixes well with the kitties!  At least sort of. laugh

    Cute! I believe you about Simon's speed. Our younger dog is a tripod border collie with super-speed and agility. So seeing your Simon was extra special for me.

    This is a really cute little gnome. I turned his mustache and beard's "line tessellation" up to 3 get them to show up in Filatoon render. I also increased the hair's line width to give it a more toon look. I kept the window panes Iray and added Filatoon shader presets to the rest. I didn't process the beard with the regular Filatoon shader as adding a geometry shell outline messed up the hair.

    Thank you! The gnome is perfect for my UFO Catcher, and that food looks *awesome* (and will be a great demo scene for my path tracer).

  • scorpioscorpio Posts: 8,429

    It seems he's gone already shame 

  • LeanaLeana Posts: 11,783

    It seems that this year the freebies are available for one day only rather than 2-3 days like before. Hopefully there will be a catchup.

    Thank you :)

    Luckily for our little gnome, I have no idea how to model a shredded version blush

    @Leana > As far as I remember, last year freebies were also only available for a day.

    Fantastic render, @3Diva! The sky, tree and presents all look really good, and the white rim outline fits the style nicely and works well to separate him from the BG. I could really use a cup of coffee right now, too ;)

    @Faeryl Womyn, @Alley Rat you're most welcome!

    @scorpio, @Leana I hope DAZ will do a catch-up day too, there are always some who miss a day or two.  It is technically not December yet even.  Keep checking in daily to be safe!

    @3Diva, you seem to have a great handle on Filatoon already, considering how new the "tech" is.  Excellent image!  @algovincian, I was looking on on some of your threads "New Year - New Junk" and I like the process/style you are achieving, particularly in the Gnome thread.

    I'm very impressed with the renders so far and it brings me great joy to see people having fun with the little Gnome.  Perhaps next year, an expansion pack for him?  wink
