(Okay, I hope I'm doing this right - and also didn't forget anything  )

Here, it's squishy, soft and fluffy!

 

No-count

• Genesis 9 Essentials (both chars)
• Crop Top by Noone102000 (it's a freebie, but I'm pretty sure I'm not allowed to link to it?  )
• Winterscarf for G3F and G2F by Mar3D (spent a day rigging it, then decided against hiding most of the snowman behind it - but still wanted to share the link!)
• G8F Saucy Sitting Poses 19 to 23 by richardandtracy and Three awkward poses for kids by dqartis01 (freebies, but only used for reference)

Paid items

• 200+ Genesis 9 Edition
• FPE Universal Horns
• Muscularity Morphs for Genesis 9

(Note to self: Never use a pre-existing character for a freebie challenge - took an eternity to turn this freebie-friendly, and in the end I just couldn't get rid of those three paid items ... XD)

That's most impressive @emanuela1 . The amount of stuff you have there, amazing.

I have one little query, can I ask what's the background room?

Regards,

Richard

 

emanuela1

Thank you for your comment  richardandtracy! 

The background room is:

My Son Bed by teknology3d (wall and floor)
https://www.renderosity.com/freestuff/items/77693/my-son-bed

on the site where I found "my son bed" it is not specified, but it contains not only a bed but also the walls and the floor.

The background of the poster is:

Ahh. Thanks. I must admit I was thinking that the bed only was the freebie. Silly me. The room looks useful, reckon I'll download it myself.Thanks for finding it & telling everyone else.

Regards,

Richard

Another terribly n00bish question:
Would it be okay to color-correct the image before posting it in the entries thread? It seems to have lost a bit of exposure during the upload, and while that lends itself nicely to the atmosphere of the render, some of the freebies are a bit hard to see now.

Thanks for giving the little guy a loving owner! You can't imagine how happy I am to see someone make good use of one of my freebies!

Yeah, that's fine! Please post the raw render along with the colour corrected version.
