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!

Featured Vendors for December 2019

For those interested, here are the past winners.

If you want announcements of site events and winners, follow us on Facebook.

Lots of great deals this November! First, there was the tail end of the Platinum Club Sale. I got a bunch more great $1.99/$2.99 items including –

  • Steam Voyager – This steampunk airship by Td3d looks super cool. It has a ton of controls, some wonderful props, and poses. A real steal at this discounted price.
  • SY Rigged Water Iray 4 – Got this as well as some of the other water prop packages by Sickleyield. Always useful to have, and best of all, can be used for a long long time down the road. Check out the fun water dragon image that I made with this below!
  • HDRI Dawn Clean Skies – I am a big fan of simple HDRis with just sky or sky with a very basic ground. HDRis are useful and the good ones I reuse over and over, so I always pick them up when there are deals.
  • P3D Melanie HD for Genesis 8 Female – She is a beauty who reminds me of Meghan Markle. At $2.99 it went straight into my cart. 🙂
  • Lanny Hair – Hair is another category of items that I search for in sales. Even the older ones can look fabulous with Iray shaders and on G8F.
  • The Old Shambles – Finally, environments are also perennial and useful. This one has some superb details and is super realistic!

Shiba contest qualifying item used – SY Rigged Water Iray 4 by Sickleyield.

I also want to highlight a couple of awesome November PC+ items and a freebie.

  • Winter Dweller for Genesis 8 Male(s) – Most of the time I skip PC+ clothing items, but this one looks fantastic! The textures are excellent and I really like that long coat. Marvelously realistic and a definite PC+ winner.
  • dForce DeNile for Genesis 8 Female(s) – Another outstanding outfit, especially for PC+. Different and exotic.
  • Corridor Clutter – This is a Merlin Studios freebie. Always love their work and the incredible detail in their props. Great for adding richness and realism into any scene.

November also had some amazing coupons and discounts all throughout the month, and culminating in the Black Friday sale. I took this opportunity to get many of the items in my wish-list. Here are some highlights –

  • Marion for Victoria 8 – I am a big fan of Marilyn Monroe, so this Marilyn look-a-like for G8F caught my eye right away. Plus it was going at a great discount for Black Friday, so very excited to try her out soon!
  • Lancy Character with dForce Hair and Expressions for Genesis 8 Female – Incredibly adorable. This terrific package comes with the character, hair, and expressions. With the BF discount, it is an awesome deal! Talking about awesome deals, I also got Xolani for Monique 7, another adorable girl with some cool skin textures.
  • Cyborg Motor Bike Bundle – This bike is totally bad-ass. Been wanting it for a while now, and got it as soon as there was a good deal. I was thinking of doing a Cloud Strife image of it together with Yuzuru, but I think Lara Croft would love it too! 😀
  • Temple of Sand – Unique and modular environment that I can see using this in many scenes. Dystopian Desert Destruction Kit is another cool modular themed set from the same vendor. In fact, The AntFarm has some amazing stuff in their store, so definitely check them out.
  • UltraTrees – Realistic Tree System – These trees look incredible. As with other items by HowieFarkes, it probably requires quite a lot of memory, but the results look amazing.

This November, I mostly got older wish-listed items. However, I did get some new stuff as well. One that really stands out for me is Ping the Ringtail based on the Plushies 2.0 figure. As I have said before, I am a sucker for cute furry animals. 😀

Poser, Daz Studio, Carrara - Which One Should I Use?

For rendering 3D-pictures and figures we can use Poser, Daz Studio, or Carrara. Poser is the oldest and most mature. However, Daz Studio has many features and new add-ons that are not available on Poser. In addition, it is free. Carrara has some great environment effects and some cool tools such as vertex editing. We consider which one to use for our computer generated pictures.

    ShibaShake,

    Hi, I have a question. It may have been asked before but I didn’t find an answer. For the contest this month you said that DAZ Originals can’t used. Most of the items I own are listed as DAZ Originals and by different artists, such as the Cafe Curls by GoldTassel or the Nyo Hair by Crocodile Liu and DAZ Originals. Are items such as these excluded? Might help to keep other people like me from asking dumb questions, or uploading invalid entries, if the definition of DAZ Originals was clearer. Also, in other months where an artist is named is he/she excluded because DAZ Originals is also listed? Thanks for taking the time to make this clearer.

      Hello Jeff, Sorry for the confusion. Daz Originals cannot be chosen as a featured vendor because they are a collection of artists, so that is almost like choosing a whole bunch of vendors. 🙂 However, it is totally acceptable for DazO to be listed in any featured items. Only requirement is that the featured items contain the featured vendor, any other vendors can be listed together with it. I have also clarified in the article.

    • Tracy Landrum says

      September 10, 2019 at 5:40 am

      Second this question but what happens IF your favorite artist products have been moved to DAZ Originals and their name removed, like Josh Crockett’s, which only shows four products.

    • shibashake says

      September 10, 2019 at 1:45 pm

      The featured item must be listed under the vendor store at the time of the contest. Otherwise, it is difficult for everyone to keep track of. 🙂

  2. Thoreandan says

    September 3, 2019 at 7:58 am

    Not to over-complicate things, but: I know we can’t choose “Daz Originals” as our featured vendor, but if the store page for a product credits both Daz Originals AND the vendor we have picked, can that product be used as a qualifying item? For example, if I pick Ravenhair as my Featured Vendor, can I use Artemis Moon for Genesis 3 Female(s) https://www.daz3d.com/artemis-moon-for-genesis-3-female-s as a qualifying product?

    Thanks.

    Just wanted to ask, when it says any swimsuit (one-piece or bikini) does that also mean swimwear for the males? Or is it meant more as a female only month (with the exception of Floyd of course)?

    Just wanted to clarify it for my own piece of mind, before I continued with the scene I had in mind 🙂

    I love your articles and this contest. Congrats on a great site. I’ve entered a few times in the past and will have few for this month. I even got and honorable mention a while back – surprised the hell out of me.

    Starting last month though, I’ve been having problems reading the site. It loads, but some of the text keeps disappearing, usually about which vendors can be used. I just spent a great deal of time doing some images based on the Karyssa Pro Bundle I just got as a belated Xmas present. You can imagine my consternation when when I came to the site today to see if the January winners were posted and found that Karyssa was not listed as a qualifying item. I know I’m getting old, I’m 68, and can have a certain amount of senior events, but I KNEW I saw it before.

    Got my son to look into it for me. He has a degree in computer science, codes games, web sites, etc. He found that you site is riddled with tracker tags to all the links on the page. Sample below:

    Karyssa 8

    My adblocker/anti tracking software does not like this! The page becomes messed up which it would appear to cause the missing text.

    Here are two such locations:

    January started with some great sales on some of my favorite vendors including Stonemason, , and . This allowed me to pick up many items that have been on my wishlist.

    The newly released Owen 8 and will also qualify.

    As you can see in the first instance only Stonemason is listed and in the second only Owen 8 is listed.

    Please fix your site and remove the trackers. Or at least warn visitors that such items exist and may mess up the page.

    Hi
    I am trying to reach the creators of the Shiba Shake web site.
    Your site is beyond incredible; I had been considering getting a Shiba Inu and the outstanding experiences and guidance you shared were instrumental in my wife and I getting one for our 20th anniversary.

    I notice with sadness that you appear to not be updating the site any longer with new content.
    I hope all is well on your end.

    My name is Glenn and I live in Miami, Florda.
    We have a 5-month old cream Shiba named Casper who we got at 12 weeks from a breeder in Missouri. He came to us fully potty trained, but afraid of everything and has thrived with many suggestions from your site.

    I hope to hear from you!

    I’ve noticed that days after the end of the month and prior to your announcement of the winners of that previous month’s contest, there are those who are posting/tagging entries for that month (e.g., It’s September but people were still posting entries well after August 31 for the August contest). Is that allowable. I’m just curious because there are times when I would like to enter but missed what I perceived as the deadline.

    Thanks.

      The end date for submissions is the end of the month. After that, the judges start their process and mail me the results. To be fair, we filter out entries that do not qualify when/if we detect them. Most of all, we hope that this is a fun event for everyone. 😀

  18. Ferretmania says

    September 3, 2017 at 2:13 am

    Ohh that’s going to be a tough choice with all the great vendors.

    Question ? It says that Michael 8 qualifies, does that mean we can choose a vendor AND M8 or if choosing M8 we can’t choose a favorite vendor ?
    LOL that was a lot of using the word choose in one sentence, hope my question makes sense.

    Btw shouldn’t it say featured vendors for September instead of August ?

    I love her things and she’s among my top favourite vendors. I think I have her whole store wishlisted and is slowly making my way through getting everything. The Nightqueen Wardrobe Collection went in my cart faster than you could blink when it was in fastgrab lol

    There were a lot of awesome stuff released during MM and picking a favourite ,well nope can’t do it, too many to choose from. My head is still buzzing from all the great stuff I bought and I haven’t used half of it.

    Hey Shiba’

    Congrats on a wonderful site. You’re doing a wonderful job and your art is amazing. Well done.

    I’ve just recently rebuilt my system and installed all my art programs. I’m like an art junky, not knowing which software to tinker in. I realise I’m behind in Daz and it’s new, amazing renderer, hence my participation in your challenge this month. Hope it’s not to raunchy but what better way to test my skills with water. Needless to say, I’m tired of tweaking.

    Have a GR8T one. Keep up the good work.

    three fantastic vendors to choose from…can i resist the temptation to pick an item from them all? should i even try?

    it’s a wonderful concept, this contest. i must’ve visited for TDA tutorials half a dozen times before i spotted it. thanks for hosting, shibashake!

    🙂

    so…is there a way to check out the results of the october contest without facebooking? once upon a time i facebooked, but i facebook no longer. turned out i was allergic to it.

    yt,

      Hahaha, extra gold stars for that. 😀

      October results are not posted yet. Will be posted soon on this site, so will be accessible to all. I use Facebook and Deviantart for announcements on new things posted.

    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.

    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 😀

    Reply
    • shibashake says

      September 6, 2016 at 2:59 pm

      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.

  36. Lisa says

    September 3, 2016 at 4:45 am

    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.

    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 ?

    • Lisa says

      September 3, 2016 at 8:13 am

      Yeah I know right, I have sooooo many favorites. In the past I know it had to be from the DAZ store.

    • shibashake says

      September 3, 2016 at 9:02 am

      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! 😀

    • Ferretmania says

      September 4, 2016 at 7:27 am

      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.

    • shibashake says

      September 4, 2016 at 2:41 pm

      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.

    • shibashake says

      July 2, 2016 at 3:25 pm

      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!

    • Lisa says

      July 13, 2016 at 8:14 am

      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!

      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!

    • shibashake says

      July 24, 2016 at 4:22 pm

      Heroes and villains sound like a lot of fun, probably villains are more so. 😀

    June 2, 2016 at 1:00 pm

    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?

    • shibashake says

      June 2, 2016 at 10:59 pm

      Yeah, try to stick to Daz for the qualifying product. Additional stuff can of course come from wherever. 😀

    • Lisa says

      June 4, 2016 at 11:00 am

      OK will do 😉 also thank you for the gift card, I didn’t know honorable mentions got one! Was a very nice surprise 😉

    Hi Shiba, does one have to use DAZ Studio to qualify or can you use a different application as long as a qualifying item is used? I am starting to work with a different app (still love DS) but it is work related and limiting my time using DS at the moment.

    • shibashake says

      January 19, 2016 at 11:47 am

      Hello Anne, there are no software restrictions. Use whatever you like as long as it includes a qualifying item. 🙂

    Many vendors sell on multiple sites. In past contests you have included vendors’ listing on RDNA. Can you use models by the listed vendors purchased from other sites in September’s contest?

    Reply
    • shibashake says

      September 13, 2015 at 11:00 pm

      Great question Anne.

      In general, qualifying products are only those that are in the posted featured links. Since September is Vendor month at DAZ, we wanted to keep it mostly to daz stores. Also, we are using the Daz Gallery and doing Daz GC as prizes, so Daz Vendors will generally be the focus.

      However, on regular months, we usually include vendor stores from other places as well, in which case they will be listed in the featured vendors section.

    • Anne Marie Rasmussen says

      September 14, 2015 at 2:53 am

      Shiba, thank you for your answer. Totally understand your position. I have a couple of lovely models by Sabby but not from DAZ. I’ll have to look through my runtime and see if I can come up with some other ideas. 🙂

  45. Megacarl says

    August 19, 2015 at 12:32 pm

    Sounds great, but I don’t usually purchase 3D stuff for Daz because I’m kind of new, so I can’t enter 🙁
    Do you buy all the stuff in your renders or some items are free?

    Reply
    • shibashake says

      August 19, 2015 at 11:35 pm

      Daz does offer a bunch of free items – Daz Freebies page.

  46. Pete Williams says

    June 20, 2015 at 8:00 pm

    I’m wondering – if I use an outfit as the qualifying item, then just how much of the outfit needs to be used ? (I like mix-and-match)

    Reply
    • shibashake says

      June 20, 2015 at 10:12 pm

      Hello Pete, Mix and Match should be fine, as long as enough of the qualifying outfit is shown. For example, don’t just include little bits of the glove in a zoomed out shot. 😉

      Judges should be able to look at the image and recognize parts of the qualifying outfit.
