CG Low-Poly Challenge

It's been a while since we've had our last Low Poly Challenge - this of course means, that it is time for another one!

Since we're getting used to challenges with a bit more detailed requirements, let's set some ground rules for this one:

Winners will be chosen for Best Character and Best Environment models - each category will have a winner and a runner-up. Models must be Low Poly (Up to 50,000 Polygons). There will be two winners for the Best Portfolio as well.

We have quite a few sponsors for this challenge - the prizes include Render fees by FoxRenderfarm, Quixel Suite licenses, ShaderMap licenses, Texture kits by Greyscalegorilla, BonyFace 3.2 Animation systems, Topogun licenses and full versions of Pixplant 3 by PixPlant.

We will pick one extra winner for Character and Environment that is made with a Cinema 4D - so if you need Broadcast or Visualize version by Maxon, keep it in mind when you make your entry!

Frequently Asked Questions

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 'CG Low-Poly' 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 22nd of February 2015 to the 2nd of May 2016 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.
