@SapphireBlue Excellent voice, video, and music, as always. It's a good idea to include subtitles; they're a huge help to understand the song for non-native English speakers like me.
@SapphireBlue, 3DIO , Fire Angel, Matt_Castle, csaa excellent work! I hope to be able to make decent renderings so I can participate in this thread too:)
@emanuela1
Cheers, and looking forward to the renders!
It's not a contest, if you enjoy making an image and want to post it please don't worry too much about the technical standard. Of course do your best, but please don't stress over comparisons.

emanuela1 Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
Emanuela! First, your renders are perfectly fine and creative. Secondly, these "Render your buys" threads are to get us to use all these assets we buy, have fun and just share. We can share quick tests, silly renders or finished pieces. No pressure. So please just participate!
I always love seeing everyone share their renders, and the threads themselves have really inspired me to use more of my library of amazing DAZ things!
Inspired by The Exorcist.
Note: I previously tried to upload a file with 'attach a file', it doesn't work with Edge, but it does with Opera GX. Maybe it's my settings.
Been a bit short on ideas lately, so going back to the old tunes of doing silly mythological pin-ups.
I think this is a first use of:
https://www.daz3d.com/wwii-jeep
https://www.daz3d.com/restoration-shop
https://www.daz3d.com/x-fashion-uniform-04-for-genesis-8-females (albeit only parts of it mixed with https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-40s-liberty-lingerie-for-genesis-9-and-genesis-8-female, although I've definitely used that before).
And I'd add: it's fun to see everyone's toys in action! More than once I've discovered something cool on this thread that I had overlooked based on the cover promo picture in the store, or wound up avoiding something I was on the fence over because the person here mentioned struggling to make it behave. I'm all for finding cool stuff and avoiding frustration! So please, selfishly, share your renders!
Can I ask what you used for the splatter effects? I really like the distribution.
Depending on which splatters you're talking about...
For the skin, it's one of Aeon Soul's Skin Effects products - probably https://www.daz3d.com/skin-effects-dirt-for-genesis-3-and-8-females but the texture file names in the scene aren't completely clear. This includes on the centair body, because I used my clothing transfer clones to bake the geoshell textures across to work for the graft too.
For the clothes, https://www.daz3d.com/ptf-grungy-threads
For the floor, https://www.daz3d.com/sy-splats-drips-and-splatters-for-dforce
For the photo: CC0 image from https://www.publicdomainpictures.net/en/view-image.php?image=182950
I probably should have mentioned some of these products in my earlier listing; I'm not sure if I've used all of them before.
Thank you kindly!
I don't have a title (blame the gallery being closed
) but I do have a short story 
Newly used products:
I have some doubt about the tower from Jack Tomalin in the background and the butterflies.
The scene started as the icon for the metadata created for CGS Eva (I created the metadata and added .duf files akin to the ones you usually find in a character product) and for a change of scenery, I wanted to do a fantasy render and wanted to try to mimic the sense of depth @MaureenMcMahon was able to showcase in her renders (ex: 'The sight of home. Been along time since.' or 'king' to name two examples I like a lot).
I'm still missing something to put between the foreground and the background, but the couples of things I tried were not great and there is likely a more efficient way to but mountains in the background than using Mega Terrain: Highland but I like the foreground and background.
I used some dformers to push the plants and grass under the shield and the skeleton, inspired to do that by this month Daz 3D New User Challenge (otherwise, considering a past bad experience with dealing with dformers and grass, I would likely have removed the shield and not bother with the grass poking through the skeleton).
I have a list of the other items used, thanks to @Ascint's Asset Auditor: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/761231/easily-identify-products-and-assets-in-daz-studio-duf-scene-files-seeking-feedback/p1
Edit: I forgot, I did some postwork to merge various renders, to get the two tones dress because the way the dress is surfaced doesn't allow to easily have one color for the top and another one for the corset.
And it would have been easier to make FBM for the outfit if the corset was a difference piece: making sure the part of the dress under the corset was not inside the body required some strange cameras angle in Blender
But as a bonus, if someone want to only have the dress, it's possible because the part under the corset does exist.
I also used Thickener on various parts of the outfit, to give them a bit of thickness.
Elor,
Lovely vignette, both the story and the scene. Besotted with a book, trusty hammer in hand, a fair maiden savors the countryside! At least the skeleton found its final resting place on such a verdant plot.
Does "She" have a name? What hair did you use? How did you split your renders -- foreground, mid- and then background?
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers!
Haha, nice! Don't let the undead get in the way of a good book! Good job with the foreground details, too.
Eva I guess: I don't really think about name outside of using the name given to a character or morph by an artist (so CGS Eva in this case).
I don't remember mixing two characters together, so it would feel strange to me to say 'Meet Elizabeth, a twenty something bright student going on a adventure' when everyone using Daz would say 'Hey, you picked the wrong queen, it's Victoria 8.1'
.
The morph is from CGSerpent, everything else (skin, brows, and HD morph) are from Loriane, by maelwenn.
The hair is from @Akhelloos: ALO Elysianna Hair for Genesis 9, 8 and 8.1 Female.
For the separation, the character and her immediate environnement is at world center, the house in the lake is at something like x=-8000, y=-1400 z=-12000, and so on:
I used the matte fog setting (using the setting provided with Skies of Economy Redux - Volume 2) and I played a bit with Matte Fog Visibility in Iray Preview to get a result I liked.
Thank you
I made this image to show off the member festival items. I doubled the size of the dice and used a selection of glass and metal textures.

I often enjoy the Premier exclusive characters more than the base. Here is Link, a version of Lyna 9

That wargaming store image is fantastic, and the work shows in all the tiny details!
Here's an image with a lot of 3D products in it, from DAZ and from other stores too. Some are very old but still highly usable. I'll try and list all the DAZ products below the image in a later edit but I may forget some as there are a lot to remember. All of the figures are Genesis 8 female characters. It's a full UHD width, so clicking on the thumbnail to view the full image might be worthwhile.
There are many 3D products from other sites too, and there may be other products from DAZ in there that I cannot remember using. It was quite a lot of work putting this one together as you can probably see. Rendered in one go though, as my machine has 128Gb of RAM. I did have to render it using the CPU because it would not fit in the memory of the graphics card; Blender reported using over 34Gb of RAM to render it. No post render work other than adding text in Affinity Photo.
That Jack Daniels bottle as a fairy keg is so creative!!
Trying out my latest purchase - Anime faces for genesis 8 female
Also converted V4 overalls for use with G8 female
I converted the Ballroom Dance poses for Genesis 3 and the outfits to work with Genesis 9
An Art Nouveau moment
This is something I did for the library's summer reading program which is dinosaur themed.
1. Einiosaurs: https://www.daz3d.com/einiosaurus (a relative of the more-familiar triceratops), https://www.daz3d.com/desert-diorama-for-iray, the morphing rock prop from https://www.daz3d.com/1stb-useful-cliffs-3-vignettes-scenes, https://www.daz3d.com/cycads--ancient-plants-for-daz-studio & https://www.daz3d.com/wetlands-plants-for-daz-studio--horsetails.
.2. Fish Dinner! Fun fact: Pteranodons aren't actually dinosaurs! https://www.daz3d.com/pteranodon-by-am; https://www.daz3d.com/pteranodon for the background pteranodons; https://www.daz3d.com/secluded-shoreline; an unlucky, scaled down https://www.daz3d.com/feligalodon-original-figure. One of the Skies of Iradiance HDRIs replaces the dome in the Secluded Shoreline set.
Sorry I missed this earlier; thank you!
I've been meaning to do something with one of Pinkslip's guns for a while, and use/exploit/showcase the fact they have (some) modelled internals.
And as one of the players in my Warhammer 40000 RPG group asked what my ratling salvager character might have been doing since we last played that party, that gave me an excuse to use the Bulwark C2 Assault Rifle, with Cyberpunk Prison Cell appearing as the background.
