Congrats and thank you to all who participated in our first texturing challenge! It was challenging to think of how a texturing challenge might be fair and I was glad to see the provided models get such good use! I hope everyone who participated managed to learn something and have fun as well.

The judging, while with few entries, was still very challenging to pick a winner! Those of you who managed to make it to the end all did an excellent job!

Winners!

Very nice job, sandman! With a bit more consistency of style and a last coat of polish, this could have easily been #1, but even so, it looks great and you gave Sir Cadbury a lot of character through your textures!


3rd Place

Perfecto

Nice job, perfecto! I liked the modifications you made to the base model as well as the presentation on the stand. You added some nice details with the scope and strap and I liked the ingenuity shown in creating custom textures through models and rendering in 3D!

Congrats again everyone! The new challenge is now available!
