A List of DeviantArt Freebies
I know most of the big places to get freebies, I think, but there seem to be so many 3d freebie artists hiding in little corners of DeviantArt. So I thought maybe we could start a list of the ones we know about. Here are people who post freebies that are either Daz and/or Poser compatable, or in OBJ format for easy importing, or possibly HDRIs.
WARNING - Some of these pages are VERY NOT SFW.
Just because I've listed them, does NOT mean I have used them (most of them I haven't), so as always, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Here they are, now in alphabetical order:
A lot of these have a "Freebies" section to make it easier, and I tried to pick people with 3 or more freebies available, although there are exceptions. And as always-
MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE CONDITIONS to see how you can use these!
If you know of any I didn't list, please mention them here, and I'll add them!
Comments
Maybe I should reserve this space in case my list goes over. Who knows, maybe y'all know a lot of people on DeviantArt!

It may be worth mentioning that Noone's freebies can be 'a bit' to 'very' NSFW before anyone goes searching through them.
A lot more of mine are on ShareCG, because deviantart doesn't allow easy updating if users find errors that need fixed:
https://www.sharecg.com/SickleYield1
Working on adding new ones now!
And don't worry, @SickleYield, I think most people know about ShareCG and Renderosity. I'm just trying to make a list of DeviantArt creators, even if there are only a few items listed. Just because it's so much harder to find things on DeviantArt.
I have only ever made one freebie: https://www.deviantart.com/peenwolf/art/Freebie-Winter-Soldier-Arm-for-Daz-Studio-854477672
You dont want to venture too far from that page as will get NSFW.
Yay! I made the list!
(I am the Luqu)
Oh, and I have a sub-gallery dedicated to only my freebies, which might be a better link to use on the list.
https://www.deviantart.com/luqu/gallery/67868988/
Added you, great freebie, thanks for that!
I just link to the main page of everyone, since not everybody has a sub-gallery, I want them to all be the same.
Yay, MoonCraft 3D is on the list! Thanks for the mention :)
If you guys have a DeviantArt account be certain to like and follow people on Deviant Art. It is really encouraging to get something as simple as a favorite, or watch :)
Well I don't have any models there at the moment, just one tutorial and some textures.
These are the gallery links:
https://www.deviantart.com/catherine3678ab/gallery/74400506/tutorials
https://www.deviantart.com/catherine3678ab/gallery/74895281/textures
Are you sure ? It should* be as easy as 1 - 2- 3...
*I'm fairly sure that I changed some files before the site went all eclipse, and it should still work after the redesign, although I can't be 100% certain as I haven't tried it recently
Added you, Catherine3678ab, since you have textures.
And I also ordered the list, so we can find people easier now!
It should be, but when I tried to replace the zip file after the redesign, after I submitted it always turned up with the old zip file. People kept reporting an issue that was fixed months before in the ShareCG version (which is why the dA version now directs people to that version).
600v makes vehicle models. Their DeviantArt pages link to their Patreon pages where many of the vehicle models are downloadable for free, as .obj's.

I was trying to remember this person's name yesterday!
I wonder if there are any DeviantArt pages which have 3D buildings, such as houses and stores? Or maybe 3D neighborhoods?
And what does SFW stand for?
NSFW = Not Safe For Work so presumably SFW means Safe For Work.
I made some collections of such models made by others:

Great idea. Thanks for the inspiration. Lists are always a delight.
Most of my current freebies are also available on DeviantArt. https://www.deviantart.com/semicharm
Added, along with a few others I found.
We're getting a rather long list! Keep them coming!

Downloads are linked to his patreon
This is a great idea - thanks! There are a lot of excellent freebies!
But if you have never browsed DeviantArt or other similar sites, be warned that Beyond This Point There Be Dragons! NSFW is putting it mildly sometimes. It is best to use specific search terms to find DAZ-related freebies instead of just randomly looking at stuff. As Roy Blatty said in "Blade Runner": "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe!" That which is seen cannot be unseen.
There is also a whole universe of stuff for Miku Miku Dance (MMD) and Miku Miku Moving (MMM), including expanses of stylized characters, beautiful costumes, cool props, sets, etc. There are utilities and paths to bring those into Blender for conversion. However, items tend to have a list of use rules and restrictions that may fill half a page, and a lot specify that they must be used only within MMD for non-commercial use, so in a lot of cases it is just not worth it.
Scattered among those are some actual freebies - Belle, Ariel, Charizard, Venusaur and Harley Quinn, for example. You can download those for free, without having to subscribe to the Patreon.
This is SO TRUE. That's why I put the NSFW warning, DeviantArt lives up to it's name. I wish there was a better alternative, but right now there really isn't. You just have to take the creepy with the good, unfortunately. I personally use the filtered option, that helps a ton, and I've blocked certain tags as well. I still see a whole lotta NOPE, though.
Sorry - I just meant the the freebie downloads are not on the deviantart page, but on patreon ...
Ah, I see what you mean! Yeah, I decided to allow that, since several creators do that (MostDigitalCreations has his downloads on his own webpage, but links to it from DeviantArt, for example). It's not ideal, but since they can be found from DeviantArt, I figured it's ok. In fact, I may do that sometime in the future with my own freebies. Thanks for pointing it out, though!
Hmmmmm Kerya, I tried to link that DA page before and my post was removed. He does have some amazing stuff there and now that he is using Wrap3 most characters have fully posable faces. DA has tons of useful items in other 3d formats that are fairly easily converted to DS.
