3D Week
Today's contest is to submit a 3D Model that would be fabulous if it were 3D printed!
Don't forget to check the =3D Week Announcement= regularly for upcoming events and contests this week, we've got a lot on!
From today until Friday, you can note Cymae with your entry. The title of the note MUST be "3D Week Modeling Contest Entry", and should contain a single thumbcode.
This can be any new or existing model in your gallery, so feel free to polish off those fantastic older pieces that might be a bit neglected.
The thing about this contest is that we're looking for models which would be great printed. Think about which model in your gallery would benefit from 3D printing, and importantly is solid enough to print (things that float in space obviously won't work). Here's 10 things 3D printers can do now to get you thinking!
Entrants will be short-listed and final judging will be conducted by Professor Olaf Diegel,
