  1. General Notes:
    There will no obligation for a blog entry anymore. It is still allowed to post a link to your model or additional images, but it is not required anymore to submit a model to the challenges. The 3D Warehouse tag is still required though and should be added when uploading a model to the Warehouse.

    You can use the hyperlink code creator on the frontpage of the blog to create the code for a hyperlink in your message. Copy this code and paste it in the comment box on the place where your want the hyperlink to be.

    Challenge suggestions are welcome to be placed on the blog. Items will be noted and compiled on the moderator’s list. At that point, the initial comment for the suggestion may be deleted so as to maintain a streamline challenge thread for use of posting entries for the challenge and comments to models. Challenge suggestions have always been welcomed and taken under consideration.

    Please refrain from using background images in your models as it is the model itself that is being judged.

    You'll notice a new link on the main page that directs you to the First Place Certificate area to which winners are able to print a certificate with a picture of their model detailing their excellence. You can access the page through the main page of the blog.

    Good Luck and have fun!!!

  2. ***Please note***
    You may submit more than one model, but please be sensable about this! If you model a Knife or something and submit that, please do not model a spoon or other utensil and also submit that. You might like to create an entire utensil set and submit that instead.
    Thank you

  4. Just a common hand held mixer.

    It's not a copy off of any real mixer. The design is mine. But, since I love homophones, I dubbed it "Brawn."

    ReplyDelete
  5. OK, hopefully this time the link will be good... My hand mixer.

  6. to make it easier could we upload a collection (instead of individual models or a whole bunch of models in one file)?we could name the collection with the tag we use.

  7. PS can you guys tell me what you think of my Dragg Car i just started it but i'm kinda stumped on how i should finish it

    ReplyDelete
  8. if i have time i think i'll probably make a plate of food. i seem to remember that working fairly well last time i tried it. i just remembered what i made for my entry to the kitchen challenge way back in the day.. a breadboard with knife and bread, and an orange juicer (and a really crappy oven :P ) i seem to remember the person who won made a really nice simple, clean and crisp cutlery set. aaaanyway...

    (ps.jetsons ftw !!!!!!)

  9. @ JW2014/TD2013 ... YOU HAVE STOLEN A MODEL BY DILBERT AND YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED! YOU SHOULD LEAVE THE 3D CHALLENGE FOR A FEW YEARS WHILE YOU GROW UP! THEN YOU MAY COME BACK WHEN YOU HAVE LEARNED HOW TO DRAW YOUR OWN STUFF!

    ReplyDelete
  10. Dude i did not, JW2014 is my cousin, we are not the same person but we have to same name concept, initials then grad date. So yell at him not me! Honestly i didn't copy!

    ReplyDelete
  11. It is evident that JW2014 has no intent to follow the rules of this challenge. He has stolen several models and presented them as his own. He is a cheater and a liar. I move that JW2014's entries and votes are henceforth disregarded and that he be banned from the challenge.

  12. @ TD2013

    We're watching you too, so don't try any of the same antics.

  13. @Tinkertoy;

    "That is some pretty darn good work, and fast too. So fast that it makes me wonder if some or all of it was pre-made. But you aren't JW2014, so I will give you the benefit of the doubt. "

    1st of all, thanks for the compliment ;)
    2nd, i'm glad the way for preparing new challemges changed a while ago... I already competed while we were still able to vote for next weeks challenge! The new way rules out the pre-made factor!
    This challenges' idea hit me right away, and im good enought with SKP that i dont have to think longer than 5 seconds how to make it! The whole model didn't took me more than 2 ours to make! HONEST!
    3rd, I just had my 31st birthday, and if i may say so myself, i have outgrown these kind of childisch things, if you know what i mean ;)

    Last, and i've said this before, i really enjoy the "challenge"! Mostly for myself, but i like a bit of competition! Premade? My *ss! Bring it on ;) -no offence, really!- I just love Sketchup!............... I JUST LOVE SKETCHUP!

  14. The next challange should be something to do with some kind of transporter like a human transporter through space or soomething.

    ReplyDelete
  15. @td20103... yes it's all preMade. Pre-made yesturday the 26th. Duhhhhhh and loaded today... and eye drank an abundance of jamaican mountain bean espresso and some coaxing from a friend all nite.crar thnx nm. zip zip. 3mb later I submitted my latest creation and entry into the challenge... Espresso Oasis. Enjoy.

  19. I've just finshed my kitchen, I've created a lot of details. I named it "Vintage Kitchen", you'll see why. There're two rooms, the kitchen and the dinning room beside.

  20. OOOooo

    I've just seen the challenge's theme deeply "Accessory". Is that important if I've made a whole kitchen ?? I'm getting worried .
    Though it contains a lot of appliances...

    ReplyDelete
  21. @myself

    I think there's no problems, anyway if there is, just forget the kitchen and only look at the appliances .

    There are great models here, hope it will keep on .

    ReplyDelete
  22. i have just added a model of a Refigerator. Its an important appliance in an KITCHEN

    ReplyDelete
  23. @Moboille
    I think there's no problems with your kitchen.

  29. @TD2013,
    i love how you go to great lengths to Cheat

    oh ya that "silver ware probably took me the longest" right? just as i thought you had turned around.... I really like the qoute "Everything is completly mine, since people might have suspicions that i cheat i did everything my-self".

  33. Ok i would like to start over. I gave credit in my description (that also meens those items that are just there to spruce up the model are not for the competition) so if you barrow items you have to give credit for it so people know it is not yours! So it is a bad idea to barrow a whole model becuase that whole model won't count! you get what i'm saying? Please reconsider you rating on my model please, i have givin credit to tom for the silverware and google for a few images!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Look TD2013, these challenges are just for fun. There are no prizes or anything like that. They are here to help improve your modeling skills and just to have fun. By using someone else's model (Without crediting them too) is not helping yourself model any better. I feel that you should rethink what these challenges are all about and work toward being a better modeler.
    Best of luck

  35. Ok fine...i am going to start fresh starting next week. If i cheat (with out giving credits) i will let you guys kick me out of the competition! But I will take my time hopefully getting first next week! Thanks logan C. for being a good sport (unlike some of the others that don't seem to like me very much)

    ReplyDelete
  36. Sinnah obviously doesn't like me....just saying...he is the only one who gave me a 1(his opinion though) so i guess it doesn't matter much and i'm not going to start a fight about it!

    ReplyDelete
  37. randommodification...just a question. Why was your ranking go from a 4 star and the next minute to a 4 star when you thank me for using credits? Just please answer. Was it a mistake?

    ReplyDelete
  38. @TD2013,
    I changed my rating because you admited cheating and i thought that was a good start, and yes it was a mistake(after some thought I changed it back) you obviously don't get that cheating isn't appreciated, especially after getting caught about 3 or more times. maybee next challenge you can earn some respect by making a model by yourself(completely). also in regards to "sprucing up" your model with components DON'T include them in your model(maybee if you want you could show them in your renders if you GIVE CREDIT for them). anyways that sums it up, i look forward to seeing your model for next weeks challenge.

    ReplyDelete
  39. i just ploaded my Retro Fridge for the competition, sorry it's kinda last minute.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Think eye have an idea for an upcoming challenge.,,
    Ice Cream Scoop. Eye scream you screem? Either the Vintage/Retro, thumb operated, gear-y one or the multi compounded, circular, zinc alloy one. There's like no Ice Cream Scoopers in the entire Sketchup Warehouse world... think eyeLL try the later for kics.

  45. Thanks A.J.unknown for the free rendering software!

  46. Since i cheated in the past I have a good site for materials/textures. It has wood to metal to 360degree skyies! The images are great. Just download them and import into sketchup as a texture, they really help. I am trying to get you guys to like me more becuase you have a bad image of me so visit this site. It's a good one!

    http://www.cgtextures.com/

    ReplyDelete
  47. thanks for the site but I already know about it(it is a great site for textures by the way). if you want us to like you more just don't cheat again, thats all that I would need. anyways i won't hold a grudge if you play fair next challenge.

    i think that you and me could be great friends so i accept you appology i was wondering if you have face book?

  49. 3D challenge idea!!

    Sunglasses or just glasses, they seem simple but i bet it would be hard to actually make them from scratch. there's actually a lot of curved faces on them when i think about it.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Glad to see the challenge is still going strong! I also think its funny how intense people are about it too. Funny how competition does that. :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. @Tinker Toy...You left me a comment on my kitchen model and said there were premade components. Where are they becuase i dont see them. The silverware isn't for the challange,it's for like when the challenge is done and someone looks at it. So i don't really know what your talking about.

    ReplyDelete
  53. haha TD2013
    no one cares get a life and if the silver wear was for after why didn't you put it in AFTER the challenge was DONE just a suggestion
