Competitions
For a few days already we have been receiving emails from you. The question was: "Sooo, who are the winners of a competition?". We told to wait a bit. And we were answered that there are some of you, who cannot. So, finally we stopped discussing...
Challenge was accepted. And winners are selected!
But wait, wait a little bit more. Yes, I know that you can scroll down, but wait. Enjoy that pleasant feeling before you find the results out. There is something to be said.
We have to admit that this 3D Model Competition was extremely exciting. The entire month your 3D models were flowing to our marketplace shelves as a stirring mountain spring. We are more than happy because of that
Your active participation has proved two things: a) Competition's prizes are gorgeously must-have; b) Your imagination is boundless.
The jury had a big task to find out which three models out of the four-digit collection are the very best ones. Aircrafts, UFO flying saucers, sci-fi characters, parts of human body, animals, plants, interiors and exteriors, architectural solutions, food, accessories, table games, robots, transformers, a lot of cars, all the types of vehicles, electronic appliances, furniture and household, scientific and industrial objects - how not to lose yourself in this variety? Damn, we did it. We got the winners.
The Best 3D Model
Winner
Iron Baby is a model made by 3D designer Strob. He found a way to exaggerate the whole thing of "Iron Man". He designed a small copy of it and called it "Iron Baby". A video was created and shared on Youtube and got 18 million views. The goal was to rival the work done for the movie Iron Man. This expansion pack includes not only this model, but also reveals the whole process of how Iron Baby video was created. Amazing. Concept, accomplishment, details, talent - what does the winner need more?
Strob will receive the breath-taking prizes: Cinema 4D Visualize or Broadcast software with Bodypaint from Maxon, Stash subscription for 1 year, RenderPoints Silver package by Ultra Render, training DVD download of choice by Eat3D, 200 USD in cash and 200 USD in CGTrader activation credits, a book The Art of Gears of War by Ballistic.
Congrats! We have to admit that we are a bit jealous. I guess, actually everyone is.

Fabelar is open for the experiments: his 3D models vary from the cars to the food, faces, space objects, electronical appliances. Is here anything he could not design?
2nd runner-up
The challenge has brought to us a few new and talented 3D designers. One of them is RTE. We found these 3D models exceptional and noticeable: a red futuristic piano, transparent saxophone, superb modern architecture and lot of more. RTE shared with us a huge amount of photorealistic, highly detailed, thorough, inventive and extremely creative 3D models.
These two runners-up represented high-quality portfolios, so these are the prizes for their passion: training DVD downloads of choice by Eat3D, Stash subscriptions for 6 months, RenderPoints Standard Packages by UltraRender, 200 USD in CGTrader activation credits.
