In this contest, I want to feature and thank the very talented people who create wonderful 3d-content for us ~ the 3d-art vendors. I have great respect and admiration for their talent, work ethic, and general awesomeness!
On a Break
For those interested, here are the past winners.
If you want announcements of site events and winners, follow us on Facebook.
Thank you very much for all your condolences and well wishes.
For those who did not see in my previous posting, I just lost my best (furry) friend to cancer. It is a terrible thing to suddenly lose someone that you spend so much time with every day, creating light and happiness. I am still trying to muddle through this, so I will be taking a break from posting new contests for a while.
Hopefully, we will be back soon. Thank you to all for participating, viewing, posting comments, as well as for your positive energy and support. The Daz Studio community is totally awesome and I hope everyone stays safe in these very difficult times. Big hugs to you all.
May there be light in this darkness.
If you have ideas on how to improve the contest or other fun contests you would like to see, please let us know in the comments section below. If there are vendors you would like us to feature, also let us know.

And thank you for participating! If you have any additional questions, suggestions, or comments, please post them below.
Yes, i did it, i added a entry for the contest, my first one ever…:D Good luck for everyone!!
Awesome sauce! Great to have you on-board. 😀
Ohh the possibilities with a Daz Originals month.
There were a lot of awesome items released in the PA month and I also got some “old” ones from my wishlist.
My favourites from the PA month would be everything I bought, including the stuff from my wishlist …. lol….
On the top of the list though is definitely Terradome and TerraLuna.
Yeah, me too with the oldies. Actually mostly got a lot of oldies from the mega-fastgrab. The past few days of catch-up were really killer for me. 😀
I hear you on that one. Got some really great deals and could have gotten a lot more…But…my creditcard doesn’t agree with me on that one, being a single mom and all lol…at least I don’t have a spouse breathing down my neck , only kids looking at me like I’m crazy from time to time when I drool over stuff I would like to get.
Good luck to everyone this month! My parents are coming to visit from out of town and I ran out of time. I was going to go with Fred Winkler, I just love all of his characters!
Well I actually finished one! We’ll see if I have time for two 😉
Awesome sauce! 😀
thank you so much for picking my piece as an honourable mention!! The entries last month were just amazing – congrats everyone 😀
Hello Shiba 🙂
I choose Alessandro Mastronardi as my featured Vendor, okay, not a big surprise 😀
My Question: Does the Fennec Fox count too, based on his Fox Model?
Thank you 😀
Yes it does because it uses the Foxes as the base. 🙂 So you would list as your featured item Foxes by AM but you can use the Fennec Foxes as an additional item as usual.
Hmm, can I use Fred Winkler Art again? He has so many great characters and I have a lot of them heh. If I can use FWA, am I only allowed to use the items he created alone, or can I use like say FWSA characters?
Thanks!
Yes! Feel free to pick whichever vendor. I am certainly a very big fan of Fred. 😀 And yes, there can be others on the product as long as Fred is in there, i.e. it is in his Daz store.
OK awesome! Of course I’ll be doing a new Harley Quinn, lol.
Although, I did get the Terradome!
Ohh great choice of theme for September.
Except I’m going to have a difficult time choosing a favourite vendor lol.. So many to choose from.
I assume the featured vendor items have to be from their DAZ store ?
Yeah I know right, I have sooooo many favorites. In the past I know it had to be from the DAZ store.
Yes, featured items from the Daz store please, as we are using the Daz galleries. Of course other items can be from anywhere. Thank you! 😀
Thank you both , I assumed as much, but thought I would ask anyway since some of the gallery entries had me confused 🙂
Oh boy and I almost had decided which vendor to use , but todays sale made me re-consider all over again lol.
Yeah, all that Faveral stuff in Mega Fast Grab, very very difficult to resist. 😀
Didn’t get to submit as many pics as I wanted in June ;/ I have so much DM stuff but I spent far too much time working on the Caught picture. So that Suicide Squad contest, all I see is hand drawn stuff. Im not sure what this means really, “All submissions must be original artwork (meaning not using third party pre-existing copyright materials).” Like we can use 3D stuff right, do you think, it would be just like any other contest I enter? Sorry, guess maybe I should ask them lol! I have a few ideas for July’s contest 😉 I just love these.
Yeah probably best to ask them (Warner Bros.). I just figured it was ok to use Daz stuff since Daz put it in their newsletter and offered an additional 1k GC for winners. Btw. feel free to share your submission links here. I would love to see!
Finished my entry! Man did it take me a long time. Had to make new textures for all the clothes, added blood to Harley’s bat, and kept changing my mind on what hair I wanted to use. Here’s the link, but I think we cant look at the entries after they start judging. Not sure heh, I made it with 2 hours to spare!

Wow! All the textures are fantastic! The bat looks amazing!
Thanks 😉 I’m thinking of doing a bunch of female hero and villain pics. I love all your entries! I think my fave is Hammer Time!
Heroes and villains sound like a lot of fun, probably villains are more so. 😀
Awesome! I have a ton of stuff from DM actually going back to 2002! Just got a few more yesterday even, looking forward to using the Drake Tower! Do you want us to only use the products we got from DAZ?
Yeah, try to stick to Daz for the qualifying product. Additional stuff can of course come from wherever. 😀
OK will do 😉 also thank you for the gift card, I didn’t know honorable mentions got one! Was a very nice surprise 😉
Yeah, people are submitting some really excellent images. I always wish we could give out more prizes. 😀
I just entered. I hope I did it right. The tag doesn’t show on my picture but the qualifying information does. If I did this wrong, can someone tell me? I’m new at joining contests! Thanks so much, Denise
Check out the “Contest Entries” link at the top. If you tag it right, it will appear in that gallery. Thanks for entering!
