CG Aliens in Space Challenge

CG Aliens in Space Challenge

Is there life on Mars or are we alone in the entire universe? There are thousands of UFO stories and aliens being spotted around the world every day... are all of them pure lies? And what about the future? Will those creatures (if they exist?!) live among us and become part of our society?

These questions have been tackled in various sci-fi movies, games and books about alien attacks and invasions. However, fantasy films aren't the only factors making us doubt our fact-based reality. "I think we're going to have strong indications of life beyond Earth within a decade, and I think we're going to have definitive evidence within 20 to 30 years," says NASA chief scientist Ellen Stofan and - you will agree - he is pretty convincing. Or at least a little bit more realistic.

Inspired by the numerous sources of alien-focused discussions, we got curious to know how CG designers imagine aliens and interpret this challenge theme. Its title indicates what we're looking for: show us fictional creatures from the planets existing in space (or inside your head, for that matter), design their spaceships or other spacecraft helping them to travel from one planet to another, and construct their living environment in 3D. Let's inject some 3D fantasies into this alien story.

Surprise us and our sponsors Cheetah3D, LightWave 3D Group and RebusFarm by creating totally new worlds with living yet undiscovered creatures!

                                                                      Please go through these questions before contacting us

                                                                      Do I need to upload files or only images of my 3D design?

                                                                      You need to upload files and images of your 3D design in order to participate in the challenge.

                                                                      I don't want to put my entry model for sale. Do you have any suggestions?

                                                                      Does earning money from your digital files sounds like a bad idea? Just try to put higher price on it, let's say 300 USD.

                                                                      I don't want to loose copyrights on my model after it is sold.

                                                                      There are General, Editorial and Custom licenses for you to choose under which you want to operate. Individuals or companies which bought your model can't use it for commercial purposes if it hasn't been changed. So no worries - you won't loose the copyright.

                                                                      How can I participate in the challenge?

                                                                      Design awesome 3D model for 3D 'Aliens in Space' Challenge and upload it to CGTrader.

                                                                      What if I put the required tag on my already published 3D model on CGTrader - do you treat it as a valid entry?

                                                                      No. Only 3D models uploaded in the period from the 30th of July to the 6th of October 2015 will be treated as valid entries.

                                                                      Do free 3D models participate in the challenge?

                                                                      Yes, absolutely. Sharing artwork is always appreciated in the community.

                                                                      Can I enter with 3D models which participated in other challenges elsewhere?

                                                                      Yes. There are no restrictions on publishing and selling your models elsewhere.

                                                                      Do price tags play any importance when entries are being judged?

                                                                      No. But do not forget that the prices are always judged by the customers.

                                                                      I want to participate in the challenge so I am going to delete my already uploaded models and upload them again to meet the "publishing period" requirement. Can I do that?

                                                                      No. We are tracking every deleted and uploaded model, so it is useless to drive-through our requirements of the challenge.

                                                                      As Seen On
