3D Character Challenge: What Will You Come Up With?

Featured post

Abra-cadabra! No more promises about the future. CGTrader.com announces the long awaited grand 3D Character Challenge! So, what will you come up with?

All you have to do is prove that your fantasy and professionalism mixed together is a more powerful potion than uranium or the famous deadly spell Avada Kedavra that was used by the Lord Voldemort against Harry Potter. Let your childhood beasts leave the wardrobe or get out from under the bed.

Call all the fairies, elves, goblins, dwarfs, owls, wizards, hobbits, basilisks, witches, lizards, unicorns, centaurs, mermaids, princes, giants you read about to wake up from book pages, to step off the TV screen and to awake from the life of being a plush toy. Magic creatures may not be your forte, so jump into the world of sci-fi, let's say you are in Mars, where you explore a new territory of the Red Planet and have an unexpected meeting with a living being, which almost painfully reminds you the quadrilogy of movie "Alien".

If it is still not enough to inspire you, travel back the time to the pre-historic period. Planet was inhabited by myriads of unknown species, almost dinosaurs: in the air, on the ground, in the water or behind your back... No? Take a trip to Stone Age, settle in the cave with early people as Australopithecus and Paranthropus. Then go further.


It's the time of Migration period, all the nations mixes up together, share the lands. Can you find THAT particular character in this sea of people? No? Visit Roman Empire or rather Byzantine Empire, if you prefer Eastern kingdoms. Just take a glance at warriors, hidden in their heavy and luxurious armors, they even have their horses decorated. Or... Welcome to the Middle Ages, where because of the church, everyday is a day of judgement, dirty and drunk tramps and vagabonds clean the pockets of the aristocracy...They did not play the Robin Hood, it was just their way of living back in these dark days.

Look, it can be anything. Starting with Julia Roberts from the movie "Pretty Woman", going to extraterrestrial creatures, military characters, historical figures, leaders of the smallest Amazonian tribes, cowboys, Gods and Goddesses, acrobats or even the creature of your craziest fantasies or from a dream you had a night before. Free your mind. Break the walls of imagination.

You got it? Immediately design it! Then participate in this unique competition with your original entries, tag it with "characterchallenge" when uploading the model, and..have all the chances to become the winner and get the breath-taking prizes!

Ha, you would not believe but...Zbrush is the main sponsor of this competition. So both winners will be awarded with The License for ZBrush® 4R6 in addition to five other stunning prizes. Could you imagine something better for digital sculpting and painting?
