3D Modelling Challenge: Fantasy Characters has officially ended on 14th of November. Yet, it was truly special due to many reasons.

It was the first challenge since 2020, meaning our community has been really waiting for such contests to be back. For the challenge we collaborated with YAHAHA Studios which is a free no-code platform that helps your 3D creation get started easily. Our partners established a prize pool of $10,000 which was distributed to 15 different winners. We are glad to share that the challenge received more than 1,300 submissions uploaded by 706 different designers!

Here are the winners of 2 different categories we had for this challenge: YAHAHA Special Awards (Judged by Yahaha Team) and The best 3D Fantasy Model (Judged by CGTrader Team).

Congratulations to everyone and thank you for your active participation!

Who is Emir Yaren Tınastepe?

Hi! I am Emir Yaren Tınastepe from Turkey. I am 25 years old and I'm a computer engineer. I started 3d modeling in my university years just to make a survival game featuring our campus with my friends(never happened) but I did not stop modelling after that. I really love video games and I knew if I wanted to make my own game one day I would need 3d modelling skills. Along the way I published an Image to text app, a 2d puzzle game on play store, and composed music for my game on all music platforms. I am still a long way from my dreams.

In order to create high quality 3D content you must put in loads of hard work. We truly understand and value that here at CGTrader. Therefore, 3D Art created by every designer of our community must be seen by as many people as possible.

We are more than glad to announce that from now on you are able to showcase your 3D Art with the whole world! And we will do everything what's possible to make sure it happens.
