Freebie Challenge June 2026 - INVASION!

!VIDEO!

Denizens, i know what you're thinking. "A flashy video, Higher prize amounts, a hacky theme that you've done before ... this looks like an april fools competition?". Well, that's where you're wrong. This was always meant to be an april June comeptition, and has nothing to do with the fact that i was totally unprepared for April, and had to cobble together a random competition to cover my tracks. Anyway, they're back! An invasion like no other (aside from the last one). A terrible hoard of creatures have invaded earth and brought chaos in their wake. It's time gather talent from the farthest reaches of the Daz3D freebie forum area to battle this foe with power of rendering. We must capture any alien encounters, and comit them to the boards so a crack squad of talented investigators can pour over the evidence. 

TL:DR - Render alien invasion images and post them here.

It's not just saving the earth that's at stake either, take a look at these spiffy prizes....



Spiffy indeed. Good luck denizens, the stakes have never been higher!

Rules:

 

  1. Minimum of 3 freebies.

  2. A Maximum of 5 purchased items.

  3. Genesis and its standard morphs are fine.

  4. If you postwork your images, provide the base image.

  5. You can use AI for post-work, upscaling, colour work etc, just go easy and stick with the spirit of the competition. 

  6. All Daz ecosystem programs are allowed – Bryce, carrara etc (Even poser, If you behave yourself)

  7. Images pictures are subject to Daz TOS.

  8. No max Entries on this one. I can't count. Do as many as you want.

This Freebie Challenge will end June 30th, 2026 @ 23:59 Daz time.

    What a wonderful video! Truly excellent, well done in every way. I really enjoyed it.
    (Would subtitles for non-native English speakers be too much?)
    Excellent anyway.! :) yessmileyheart

    Now I hope to be able to make renders suitable for this competition!

    Thanks Saph! It only took a billion hours to make, and an energy bill that puts my mortgage to shame, no biggie. You can all repay me by being very creative, imaginitive, industrious, and willing to send me $10 each via postal order. No pressure.

     Thanks Emanuela! Does youtube not have auto-captions? I've tried them on the video, and they work really well. They should translate to other languages too. smiley

    I'm still trying to figure out what an "Emporer" is. Some kind of alien face cream?

    Party meeting at the pool

    ...desperate, the aliens showed up with the full might of thier fleet, ready to subjegate or destroy any who stood in their way.   But, when the humans realized that the aliens were primarily aquatic, and the aliens realized that, although Earth is a water planet, its dominant intelligent lifeform was primarily terrestrial some quick negotiating happened and the aliens just - moved in.

    Afterwards, the two races began a much more mutualistic cultural and technological exchange, and while there were certainly some adustments (like getting used to pools being open year round and important meetings being held in them), pretty much everyone involved had to agree it all worked out really well.
