CGTrader.com is safe now. After petr005 started uploading his military objects, we're now best protected territory.

The 1st of October, 2011, was the Vespaclub season closing. Hundreds of Vespa drivers filled the downtown making it to look like Italian village.

And what a surprise: a week later CGTrader.com receives some interesting models...

This is not a 3D model. This is the picture of the inventor of the telephone Alexander Graham Bell. He knew how important was to focus one's efforts. We know it too.

In the last few days we witnessed one of the most numerous upload since the CGTrader.com launch. The authors from CGShape uploaded more than 170 3D models without any help from us.

This means two things:

Lithuanian business daily Verslo žinios (Business news) today's issue is special. At least for CGTrader team as we filled up the whole last page of the paper!

Pumper, a great modeler of non organic things, uploaded 41 of his wonderful 3D objects and so enriched CGTrader.com assortment with various non organic models: router, calculator, bilboard, clocks and many others.

CGTrader.com received a very exclusive 3D model that has incredible story.

Damir G Martin, a great character design artist, shared his amazing work - a serie of unique 55 dragons.

Damir went through "Design Marathon" and created 55 dragons in 28 days!

We are happy to announce new product type - Exclusive 3d model. This is experimental feature which lets professional artists to publish their 3D models without uploading product files. 'Exclusive' stands for very high quality 3D model.

There's no need to have huge 3D models portfolio to start proudly sharing your talent. We're very proud to partnership with such artists like JohannesSchloerb, who has only one model (yet) in CGTrader.com, but what a model!

• If you look at the 3D model of New York City shared by NONECG, don't believe your eyes. I'm just back from NYC and can point 5 things that are missing:
• yellow cabs
• hod dog vendors
• people
• people
• people

This is why we love CG: it allows us to build our own exclusive world and show it to others!

If we miss something in NY, we just add it, right? For us, 3D artists, it is not necessary even to climb to the Empire State Building to do that.

But I climbed :)
