Description

UPDATE: 12/16/21
December can be a tough month for GBs, especially when combined with GMK's long lead time and how many other monster sets were running at the same time. Unfortunately Trash Friends suffered due to these factors, so we are making the decision to cancel this GMK Trash Friends GB.
However, all is not lost. I am adamant that the project continue at some point in 2022, so Trash Friends will likely be back in the future, whether just at a different time or in a different profile.
I appreciate everyone's support and feedback thus far. Since we're going back to an IC stage, please feel free to continue sending me feedback and comments if you have any adjustments you'd like to see made.
Thank you all, and I hope your holiday seasons are happy and safe!

Welcome to the IC for the set dedicated to everyone’s favorite trash-loving animals: GMK Trash Friends! Featuring Trash Pandas (Raccoons), Dumpster Cats (Opossums), and Tree Rats (Squirrels), this set aims to boop!TBD)

RENDERS:

On Smith + Rune IRON165 FE in E-White

On Smith + Rune IRON180 in Graphite

COLORS:

The set was pretty much inspired by the picture below, so I literally went in and eyedropper-ed the areas of color indicated, and found the closest RAL colors I could to them. Yes, I spent significant time looking for the best snoot color. Livin' my best life over here.

But yeah. OK, let’s get it out of the way: this set is neither Olivia nor Cafe. Please refer to the comparison swatches below!

GIVING BACK:

If you’ve seen my other sets (GMK Fox, ePBT Allfather, ePBT Freyja), you know one of the things I want to accomplish is donating to various charities. Normally I would like to do more of a local charity (think globally, act locally) because I think the money goes further for them. But in order to generate more interest and maybe even some direct donations (or even adopt a honey badger?? yeah, that's a thing) from everyone and not just US-based folks, I’m proposing an international charity for this: World Wildlife Fund.
