3D Art Freebie Challenge August 2022 - "Sniff, sniff... what's that smell?" - Main Thread Only
Sniff, sniff... what's that smell?
From blooming flowers to rotting garbage, from French perfumes to Swiss cheeses, from grandma's cooking to grandpa's socks... this month is all about the smelly, the fragrant, the stinky, the odorous, the aromatic! Wonderful or vile... or perhaps both? The theme of the August challenge is "Sniff, sniff... what's that smell?"
The Rules For This Months Freebie Challenge are:
1. A minimum of (5) Freebies must be included in your image along with Links to the freebies you have used. For an item to be considered free it must be offered as a freebie for the whole month.

3. Base figures (All Gen 2,3,4, and Genesis 1,2,3) as well as their general morphs packs (Morphs++ and similar) do not count as a purchased item or a freebie and may be used as needed

But since that still keeps you below 5 paid items...

Oh, thanks!
We're all stretched a little thin at the moment, and I just didn't have it in me to make a banner this time... so this is great!
So great to see so many entries already, will check them shortly!
Please also list Daz Dog 8 as paid item!

Erock3D's site currently gives me a "security risk" warning... but that's most likely a problem on my side, I've downloaded things from his site in the past.
In any case, even without counting Erock3D's freebies you still have used enough freebies for your entry to qualify, so:
Entry approved, please move to entries thread!
I don't know if you meant that literally, probably not...
I did have a colleague who did... let's say... project.
His desk was right next to mine
I talked to him. It didn't help. So I talked to our boss. It didn't help. Then he retired, thank god.
Oh, but I don't own Daz Dog 8. It's not required for the Dire Wolf. Do I still need to add?
Haha, I have a vague memory that we've had this exact conversation before, about a previous entry...
No, leave it as it is.
The Dire Wolf page makes it sound like Daz Dog 8 is required so I keep being confused about it.
Short story: The girl in the apartment on the left smells a stench every day at about the same time and has no idea where it's coming from or why it smells like that.

I need sugestion which one post in entry thread with or without postwork or I can post both?
Thanks
Heh, no worries The product page is a bit confusing
I just checked and you're right, I'm also getting a warning from his site. Details said due to not a renewed certificate which means it can be vulnerable or hacked. So once he gets around to updating it should be okay unless his site was actually hacked....which wouldn't be good :( I downloaded this a while ago so I didn't realize.

You probably shouldn't share the edited base skin, that would be a copyright violation
In the entries thread, please post both the version without postwork as well as the final version, and make it clear which is which!
Entry approved, please move to entries thread!
I don't know the site but it looks like a standard yearly certificate that has just expired after the 15th June - hence the warning now. So I think, given that's two months ago, it's probably just that the site is not actively maintained anymore.
EDIT: I have just seen that ERock3D's Freebies are also on Renderosity including the Pumpkin Pie.
ok, thank you for mention this
