    @tsroemi I followed you suggestion to apply a different shader to the Mustang Jacket fur. I think it came out looking pretty good. I used UHD Fuzzy Cloth - Shaders and Merchant Resource

    Thanks, I wasn't thrilled with the displacement fur that came with it, and tsroemi suggested applying a different furry shader. So I did.

    Any of them could be the Rabbit of Caerbannog. Or you may be ridding to battle in Australia, in which case, rabbits will be a major problem for your opponent blush

    And I'm sure @Matt_Castle has a way to get a fully armored rabbit into a render with a mouse rider, wrecking havoc in a line of fully armored giants.

    I'm pretty buried in trying to make much more useful fit converters, so I can't commit to making a full render, but yes, I can put a suit of armour on a rabbit:

    After your Most Appropriate Use Ever render of a "bunny" outfit, I am unshocked yet still delighted. :)

    Wow, MUCH better! Yeah, this was exactly the shader set that I was thinking of. Stupidly, Real Life (tm) kept getting in the way of me playing with the jacket myself so far. So I'm right glad that you did!

    It does feel as if prices are getting a bit out of hand now: a pair of boots for 21 bucks? https://www.daz3d.com/pgwd-snow-boots-for-genesis-9

    Heads up - anyone jumping on the Ice Zombie deal - it has an Editorial License. It was an easy decision for me to clear my cart, wasn't that interested in it anyway.

    I alredy have the hair and beard bought them back in July as for the rest of bundle I can pass it by abd forget about it with no problems

  • SilverGirlSilverGirl Posts: 1,022

    Sigh. I understand why it's not done, but I really do wish that derivitive works actually said where the "inspiraton" came from.

    As someone who has had very VERY limited exposure to any sort of entertainment not aimed at kids for the last 13ish years, and who really had no interest in watching GoT even before that... I hate that I can think something is cool and original and then find out that it's fanart of some franchise.

    Special historical accuracy surcharge, for making it fit the Neanderthal. It's tough to get the materials needed. Mammoth fur isn't that easy to get nowadays... wink

    ...well, there was a nasty battle between two groups of rabbits in the novel Watership Down by Richard Adams.  The novel itself was based on Adams' time as an officer in the 250 company of the Seaborne Echelon during WWII which included the battle of Arnhem.

    I feel the same way, even with Premier.

    Don't know if it can be of interest to somebody. There's a 4-hour flash sale running with items by Stonemason, Zev0 and Lilflame among others at 60% discount.

    And everything carefully picked so it does not stack with any banner :D

    To be honest, I didn't even bother to try a cart. Somehow I assumed that would be the case and 60% for starters is not that enticing. Also, I've spent a little too much as of lately, so some restraint from my part is good news. LOL

  • NathNath Posts: 2,840

    Nothing in that flash was in my wishlist, so an easy pass.

    Also, with the euro and the dollar pretty much at parity, things look more expensive, so along with some unexpected household expenses, I'm being far more critical of what I buy.

    A question about the tokens problem in relation to Gift card: do we get the correct amount of tokens once the order is paid ?

    Ex: if I have a $15 worth of items in my cart (so today 6 tokens) with a gift card, do I get 6 tokens once I paid or the advertised amount of tokens on the cart page ?

  • SilverGirlSilverGirl Posts: 1,022

    Well, nuts. Had hoped for something inspiring yesterday or today since I have a few tokens, but unless there's a really good flash sale it looks like they'll expire.

    The BYOB discount seems a bit wonky atm not trigering with items in artist section, but "Celtic Heritage" items are affected by it and tokens, so can go down below the $5.99.

    It looks like that's a yes. Yesterday, before my purchase, I had 9 tokens. The cart said I was getting "+0 tokens" (+2 for the buy-in item, -2 for the discounted gift card). I now have 11 tokens.

    As far as I've seen it, you don't get tokens for buying the gift card. (Only for spending it.)

    You can still gain tokens from other items in a cart when purchasing a gift card.

    Gift cards in a cart break the token counter on the checkout page, but I've never seen the store award the wrong amount of tokens once the order goes through.

    ....OK just saw today's promo that mentioned new "Door Balusters" for 2.99$.  clicked on the  View All" button to look through a couple pages only to see none of of the items were 2.99$ (even when I put one in the cart).  Went back to the sale page and noticed what looked like a blank area just above the thumbnails, so I right clicked on the mouse and dragged the cursor across that spot to discover the "hidden message" that one needs a "Bonanza" new release buy-in to unlock the discount. 

    *tsk tsk*- using white lettering on a very, very light background, bad idea.

    ..and only three Featured Artists' Stores?
