Winners have been announced, check them out here.
I can almost smell the cold breeze here (though rarely this time in the Philippines).

We wanted to make your Christmas a little bit more special this year and what better way to do it than to tempt you into joining this Blender competition. There are some VERY attractive prizes for grabs too. Enjoy!
​

OVERALL THEME: CHRISTMAS

The sky's the limit!

Show us what Christmas really means to you. It can be a zombie Santa-filled scene, a parade of invisible naked elfs, a heart-warming family scene, anything! The only limit is your imagination.

And we can't wait to see what your creative mind has in store for this competition.

BUT make it relevant to the theme of Christmas.
​

GUIDELINES

We wouldn't want this to end in a mess, so we have set the following guidelines that you STRICTLY need to follow:
​
  • Blender-created renders only.
  • Submit only still renders, no animations allowed.
  • Your entry must be a new creation.
  • Collaborative entries are not allowed. It must be your sole creation.
  • Use of third-party assets are allowed but only to complement the scene and should NOT be the main subject.
  • Winners will be contacted to provide their .blend file as proof and to avoid non-genuine entries.

$2,244 WORTH OF PRIZES!

What fun is a competition without the prizes, right? We've gathered some of the best resources that you can get your hands on. We hope this will motivate you to bring out the best in you! ;)
