FAQ
Is this only for people who never use mods?
No, not at all! This is open to everyone to use only vanilla, even if you normally enjoy using other tools
Do I have to do all the prompts?
No, you can do those you want to!
Why a whole month?
I suck at doing challenges that are one day/prompt, so this is for me and any fellow slowpokes
Can I use any post processing tools, such as photoshop?
I think this goes against the spirit of the challenge, which is to highlight the built in tools
Can I enhance my gposes with AI?
NOPE
Can I post this challenge on bluesky, twitter, pillowfort, etc
Sure! I will not be tracking anything there but feel free to post it there if you want
A whole year of fanfic almost done, can you believe it? 🎉
To celebrate, let's have a small challenge! I've adored all of the birthday Gpose challenges I've seen, and while Howlers birthday already passed without me noticing, one year of a fic is something I would want to get something fun going. And it is certainly worth celebrating, in my humble opinion.
Now I understand the first 20 vistas might be tad restrictive, but next year we'll go through 21-80. Much like Howler in the Logs, for the most part.
Anyways! #OneYearOfLogs - here's for the second one, eh?
Here you have it! Apologies for the delay in posting this on day 1, I hurt my back pretty bad, and then had to fight a couple different tools and websites to get a decent layout for this to look nice. Take whatever approach is most fun for you, with this!
Alright well - I've peaked.
So much went into this gpose I'm going to do a little "behind the scenes" post to cover all of it. This is the most insane thing I've ever tried to do. It took 9 duty pops (mostly due to accidental auto attack) and 360 (very rapid) screenshots.
#4. Battle
"Oh how I wish I could browse the other levels."
"One day you'll get there."
"But I want to get there now!"
"Careful! I know you're eager but try not to dive off the balcony, will you? I should be very put out if something were to happen to you."
I originally wrote out a long step by step but I don't know...I'm afraid it comes off as 'pretentious' or something....
So here's a little compilation of me trying to get the shot for the Vanilla Gpose Challenge #4 "Battle"
The way Ifrit can literally knock a person OUT OF Gpose is too funny not to share......
