Freebie Challenge February 2022-"Mysteries of the Heart" - Main Thread
Mysteries of the Heart
“If I only had a heart…” yearned the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz.
But what was it he longed for? Romance? Passion? Close friendships? Love of family? Just to have feelings? A muscular pump? We attribute so much to the heart. Physically and figuratively, none of us could live without it.
This month’s challenge is to show us your mystery of the heart!
The Rules For This Months Freebie Challenge are:
1. A minimum of (5) Freebies must be included in your image along with Links to the freebies you have used. For an item to be considered free it must be offered as a freebie for the whole month. The exception to this rule is all Daz Bi-Weekly Freebies will be allowed throughout the entire month in which they are free as well as the month following their release as a freebie (For a total of 2 months). Also, if a freebie is broken down into multiple downloads/links/parts (IE like if the freebie is broken down into 3 zips etc...)it only counts as 1 freebie, not 3.
2. There will be a Maximum of 5 purchased items.
3. Base figures (All Gen 2,3,4, and Genesis 1,2,3) as well as their general morphs packs (Morphs++ and similar) do not count as a purchased item or a freebie and may be used as needed
4.Your Rendered Picture must be a new render and postwork is allowed but you MUST include a before and after Postwork versions of your entry in the Entry Thread.

I feel like this could be really easy or really hard... interesting theme, I can't wait to try it!
Lovely cover image!
LOL! Yes, sooo many ways to approach this one! I can't wait to see what you come up with!
Thanks Hylas! And thank you for hosting last month! It was quite a success - so many great entries. Hopefully you'll have a chance to enter this month!
I'm modeling something which might help people with this :-) At least, it would help me! Stay tuned.
Ooooo! I can't wait!
I'll post this in the normal board too. I modeled a candy heart box for Daz Studio:
https://www.deviantart.com/perlk/art/Heart-Candy-prop-for-Daz-Studio-905783031
It's pretty crappy, but hopefully will help someone!
Nice! Thanks for sharing!! The low poly nature of the prop gives me some ideas for a future render!
Wow, thank you!! I love chocolates and I'll use them a lot!
You're welcome!
Secret Admirer Thank You Letter
What would you write to your secret admirer? Who is he? I think she has it figured out, don't you? Or is it still a mystery? What will happen if she delivers her thank you letter and it's not the right guy?
No count: Genesis 8.1 Female
Paid: Hivewire House Cat
PS: I feel like my entry is basically an advertisement for my own freebies, is that wrong?
Is that wrong? No.
Well, I would say that, wouldn't I, when you've used a few of mine too? To be honest, I think it looks great. And to make freebies that may be used by everyone else too, just the icing on the cake. It's great to be able to spread a few gifts around.
Regards,
Richard
Nothing wrong with tooting your own horn at all!!!
If you do not advertize who else will?
You guys are awesome.
Your freebies are amazing. I use your poses all the time, in fact.
All your links check out. Please move to the Entry Thread.
Yay! The first fantastic entry! And YES, please advertise your awesome creations!
I love her expression. I certainly hope she gives the letter to the right person... boy that would be awkward!
Thanks. If you can imagine a little boy standing embarrassed, hands clasped behind his back, weight on left foot, spinning the ball of his right foot in the dirt, looking down at his feet... Well, that's how I feel.
Regards,
Richard
Oh, yes, you are great making poses and props! I use them too, so thank you!

All set! Please move to the Entry Thread.
Your ShareCG link for the milkshake may have changed. You have enough links that work either way! I think this one is the correct link: https://sharecg.com/v/95892/browse/21/DAZ-Studio/Milkshakes ;
Very cute render. Love the way you used the banjo and lyre - adorable.

A romantic classic or is it classically romantic?
Either way a lovely scene. Very nicely posed - love her smile!
No problem! That is a fantastic milkshake prop - makes me wanna get a real one!
Thank you very much!

Somebody has been reading my mind. Not exactly, just the general idea.
Regards,
Richard
All your links are good! Please move to the Entry Thread.
Very cool yet creepy! I really like how you used the mask in this render - even though it's expressionless, you've made it parodoxically convey a lot of feeling!
Just in case anyone is interested:
The R*osity (
) link for the Shukky Humanoid BoneTech sends you on a short but convoluted tour of the internet which ends you up here: https://sharecg.com/v/30300/poser/syukkys-BoneTech ; (so you can skip the middleman - though there is something to be said about taking the scenic route 
)
The AerySoul Gothic prison link is a direct download. (Thank you @ModernWizard for finding this by the way - digging through the WayBackMachine is not always the easiest thing to do!) If anyone wants to see the old site before downloading ( AerySoul's old stuff is still amazing!), here is the link: https://web.archive.org/web/20081114094717/http://www.aerysoul.com/free.html
Same here! Though, reading my mind might bore the reader to tears for the lack of content...
