CG Cookie Community Challenges

Contests and Challenges

The new home for CG Cookie Challenges ☕🍪

All CG Cookie challenges will now be easily accessible to everyone.

When you complete a course, you might like to tackle a project to test the knowledge you have gained, challenges are the best way to do this.

Here you will find all current and past challenges, so even if you wish to take part in a challenge that has expired you can still post a WIP thread to receive feedback and ask questions, and post a final render in the Gallery to reap the glory and satisfaction of completing a project.

Why Challenges 🏆

A challenge rather than a contest because its for you to challenge yourself and the knowledge you gained from a course to create a masterpiece of your own making.

A rules-based challenge to maintain consistency and fairness, whilst also maintaining safety to prevent accidents.

A challenge to be the best you can be from the knowledge you have today while striving to be even better tomorrow than you was yesterday.

Most importantly, a challenge to have some fun

    Thank you, @adrian2301 , for your kind words 😊! And more challenges are waiting 😉   ...

    PS: Definitively on my to-learn-list is among others video editing with synced sound effects since it was a little bit too quiet(*) in my universe 😉😁.

    (*) although a quiet universe is more realistic due to the lack of air in between the cosmic objects, yet this is too boring for an artist 😉.

    remember Kubrick's 2001...

  • Vue Thao(euv) replied

    Congratulation to the winners who partake in the challenge. I don't mind not winning. I'm here to have fun modeling and learning from y'all blender brethren and sistren. lol

    I have a question for the next challenge after this. Is August the 14th the day we start challenging?

  • adrian replied

    Hey euv ,

    Having fun learning, what could be better.

    The 14th is when I will post the challenge details and the challenge will begin officially.


  • Ingmar Franz(duerer) replied

    remember Kubrick's 2001... 

    spikeyxxx Ok, one point for you 🥇. But it works, since there's so much more film framing these silent scenes so that Mr. Kubricks can use this as a contrast. And if you're watching these scenes late in the evening 😴😴😴...


  • Ingmar Franz(duerer) replied

    OK, 5 days left until the next challenge. Everybody ready 😉🌴🌞?!
