Skullbeast (FREE VRChat avatar)
🕑 Added 2024-07-12 02:08:49 +0000 UTCMeet my latest creation, the Skullbeast!
The Skullbeast is my unique take on the wickerbeast, combining my love for cryptids and skulldogs! However, it's important to remember that this is just a concept I thought was cool and not a unique species. I'm not trying to infringe on other creators work, or copyright any skull themed characters.
This avatar base was made in collaboration with Mos!
Mos is an excellent 3D and texture artist, and they helped bring the normal muscles to life for this model! The normal maps are included in these free files for everyone to enjoy! Mos also creates muscle normal maps for other avatar bases, so if you like what they have done with the Skullbeast, you can check out more of their work here!
Features:
- Drag and drop system! The ears, tails, horns and all of the clothing assets are pre set up with vrcfury. All you have to do is drag and drop these prefabs into your hierarchy and press upload! No rigging, no toggle making and no menu making!
- Wide variety of shapekeys! You can change the gender, body type, snoot shape, claw length, and even hide things like the beans and all of the fluff if you want!
- Pre set up shaders! This avatar has already had poiyomi shaders fine tuned, to make your skullbeast stand out!
- Jiggle physics! The fluff, ears, tail, tongue, breasts and butt already have phys bones pre set up, and ready to work with toggles!
- Easy to use retexture files! You can create your own textures using the included substance files, or PSD files (for the few 2D painters out there)
- Expressive emotions! Despite having a skull for a head, the Skullbeast is very expressive! It can achieve a wide range of emotions by flopping and folding back its ears, using its unique eyelid system, and via dilation and contraction of the pupils!
Performance:
(These statistics were taken from a Skullbeast with the wolf tail, and long pointy ear combo. The polycount can vary +/- 1.5k polygons depending on which combo you choose)
- Overall performance: Medium
- Skinned mesh renderers: 3
- phys bone components: 12
- Tris: 41,952
Requirements:
- A basic understanding of how to use VRChat SDK, and VRCfury
- VRCfury
- Poiyomi shaders (any version equal to, or above 7.4.046)
- Gesture manager (recommended, but not essential)
- The ability to join a discord server (Required for free users, highly recommended for paid users)

Thank you for showing interest in the skullbeast avatar files!
I hope you enjoy these free files, and can create some awesome characters! If you really do enjoy the Skullbeast, be sure come back to the store page to pick up some of the clothing bundles, and give your character a new stylish look!
The Skullbeast avatar files and painting files can be downloaded for free in my discord server!
We have a short verification procedure to combat the art scambots that plague communities like ours. Typically our staff and moderators are very fast at going through these verification submissions, so don't worry!
Once you are in the server, head over to the reaction roles channel, and get yourself the Skullbeast role!
(to all the people who say this is unfair, I spent over 3 months of daily hard work on this avatar base, and I'm giving it to you for free. All I ask from you is that you help my community grow! If you aren't interested in the server, you are always welcome to leave. Update logs are updated on this page, so you will know when your files are out of date)
If you need help with any of the files, feel free to reach out directly to me on discord!

UPDATE LOG:
12/07/2024 SMALL UPDATE: added a new contact receiver which makes the skullbeast sneeze, when poked on the nose with a contact sender labelled 'sneeze'
07/07/2024 VERSION 1.2: Fixed an error where the clothing bundles toggles would not stay enabled when switching worlds. Added 3 new tails, and a new modular ribcage model, which can be used for extra decoration. These new assets work with the vrcfury drag and drop system, same as the previous drag and drop assets. The substance painter files have also been updated to allow for easier symmetry painting.
12/06/2024 VERSION 1.1: Fixed the tongue dynamics always being on. Adjusted some of the default toggles and their settings. Added a pre made quest compatible specular material to make quest conversion easier.
16/05/2024: Fixed an issue where the UVs on the body PSDs didn't quite line up correctly with the fingers. The UV layer has been updated with a fixed UV map
