    Spa Day

    Curvy Young Woman: Richard, what are you doing in that boiling mud pot?
    Richard: I thought I'd take a spa day, but it is getting awfully hot in here, and it is a little too deep. Will you fish me out with your cane, please?

    OMG! LOL!

    I'm glad it gave you a chuckle!

    This texture freebie will probably the first one I won't be able to use.

    It is certainly an interesting choice to make it an add-on. Oh well, I got plenty of goodies and todays avent for me is wonderful, too. Although I will say it's stopped using my wishlist for the free item - guess it ran out of stuff, haha! Today I got the reindeer add-on for the horse 3 for 2.99! :D Very excited to render this!

    Some more gifts added to the libary.

    Some can be more challenging to use.

    And here I thought it was unusable, but you actually found a way to get it onto your scene in a creative way. Good going!

    Thank you.

    I considered my options, and decided that a decal might be the best way.

    I just wanted to say thanks to the PAs for the neat holiday freebies... I missed most of them this year and have no idea which ones I actually did get, but they all seem pretty cool, so happy Santafestmas and a Happy New Orbital Cycle to all! 

  • FirstBastionFirstBastion Posts: 7,826

    I always like calling these items GIFTS rather than freebies.  Thank you for the gifts and creative kindness.

    I'm going to blame the heron. And the argument about the fish.

    Hi all .. Merry Christmas... Happy New Year...

    Merry Christmas! That's a great question. Well . . . there are twelve days of Christmas that end Jan 5th. As a matter of fact in 2022 @Sevrin made the last post on Jan 5th 2023,but everyone else stopped when the gifts stopped on Dec 31st. I guess when people stop contributing thank you posts and renders it ends. Maybe Richard can better make that mud-ment jugement, but last I heard of him he was stuck at the spa.

    This isn't any kind of contest with rules or deadlines. Post as long as you want to, I'd say.

    Thanks to all for the generous gifts of freebies!!

  • Llola LaneLlola Lane Posts: 9,428

    Thanks for the answer to my question.. I guess I have a few more days til the gifts are up... I only got about half of them cause of the Holiday... It would be nice to have a catch up but I understand they were for one day only.  I reeeeeeeeeeally won't miss them... I have soo much in my runtime that it will take years to post everything.. LOL

    I'll start working on some art now... wait for it.. waaaaaaaaaaaait!!!

    3D Universe's Grumpy Santa is delightful! Thank you for the great freebie! And his awesome Noodle the Toon Cat is demanding some attention! I managed to also fit in A Cozy Christmas and My Christmas Centerpiece both by @Muscleman , Candy Dish Snowman by MikeD, FPE Candy Cane by FenixPhoenix and Esid, and one of last year's gifts, Christmas Micro Scene by 3DStyle. Thank you all for the wonderful Christmas gifts! I just wish I had the time to render ALL the PA Christmas gifts!

    I really like how this turned out! And I'm glad that the throne is being put to use! :D Is this an ice-skating race overseen by Mrs. Claus?

    Stuck on the Throne

    Richard was thirsty, but unfortunately he approached the "watering hole" from the wrong direction and got stuck on the stone throne. He couldn't move forward or backward. He was stuck! After much loud meowing, Jack and barbult finally heard his pleas for help.
    Jack: A couple squirts of this L-BO Grease and some tugs from barbult, and you should be free in a couple minutes.

    @barbult ROFL I love what you did with the throne! Poor Richard must have been almost dead from thirst to resort to drinking from "the throne". lol

    Who 'aven't rained their 'umans to turn the ta' on when required. Sorry, having trouble speaking right now (and walking - though at least I wasn't pulled by the tail).

    Damn, why couldn't Noodles go on sale next week, I don't get paid till Tuesday.

    I didn't think I could get enough leverage with that flexible tail. Legs looked like a better option, and there were two, one for each of my talons.

    I want to share my heartfelt thanks to all the PAs through the years who have so graciously donated such amazing gifts. It is truly amazing the number of outstanding products you have given us.

    This render uses over 60 different past/present DAZ PA gifts...some are a little harder to identify (for a full list of what I used, see my entry in KindredArts A Curious Christmas freebie challenge). Needless to say, my computer wasn't thrilled with my insanity.

    Water - Oh No!

    After the throne incident, Richard is afraid of all water sources.

    It works great. Hopefully I can link to it. I was wondering how someone would use that. No fish or fishbone washing ashore, lying on the sand like a turkey drumstick? ? No huge tuna about to eat Richard. Or better still a shark lol.

    Edit: I'll link it once the live link to the product is dead. Probably after 11 tonight my time.

    Thanks for confirming that the link works. As you can see, I am not an accomplished animator. Richard's movements look far from believable, but at least I did use the gift!

    @smoke14 That is EPIC! Amazing scene and the "clutter" adds a lot to the realism of the room (many of us have livingrooms that are a bit cluttered lol). Excellent render - it must have taken ages to set up!

    I think Daz should have a Christmas Past and Present theme one year for the Christmas freebies - a new Christmas freebie for that year and a Christmas freebie from a previous year.
