The silliest sudsy puppies around! ๐งผ๐ถ
Soap Dogs are style siblings to Soap Cats, but they are not the same base! They are a collaboration between me and @caveworfs. They designed the original concept art for the avatar! :)

Things to note!
- This avatar base requires the use of Blender! Blender allows the avatar to be at a "Good" performance level! Because this isn't common for avatar bases I am always willing to help ๐and I have also made a super thorough upload tutorials! Knowledge of Blender is not required at all, the tutorial will walk you through every step needed โฅ
- Tech Support
- I am new to using Substance Painter, I'll try my best to help if needed, but I do not guarantee any support related to Substance Painter.
- I am providing Blender / Unity Support only for what is needed for uploading and using the base.
- In general, if something is not advertised on this page, I cannot guarantee technical support for it (such as conversion to vtubers or other games)
- They are not Quest compatible
- I do not have FBT, but I've had a lot of people test it and I've been told it feels good in FBT :)
