SketchUp 3D Challenge 252: Snowman

Challenge Period: Monday, 5 December 2016 - Sunday, 18 December 2016


Winter is almost here (at least in the northern hemisphere) and many of us can already feel it. Therefore, you have been challenged to model something relevant to upcoming season... A snowman!

Your snowman should represent something that you could create from snow; meaning it should be structurally self-supported and made of snow. Although you can do the typical three-snowball stacked version, you are encouraged to think outside-the-box. Be sure to accessorize your snowman to bring him or her to life!

SketchUp 3D Challenge #250: Milestones

Challenge Period: Monday, 7 November 2016- Sunday, 20 November 2016


The SketchUp 3D Challenge has reached the milestone of 250 challenges and I, JediCharles, have reached another milestone of having administrated the SketchUp 3D Challenge for 5 years. So, in the spirit of milestones, this challenge is to literally model milestones!

For the purposes of this challenge, you are to model a milestone and a scene to display it in. See the article below for more information on milestones.
Milestone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A milestone is one of a series of numbered markers placed along a road or boundary at intervals of one mile or occasionally, parts of a mile. They are typically located at the side of the road or in a median. They are alternatively known as mile markers, mileposts or mile posts (sometimes abbreviated MPs). Mileage is the distance along the road from a fixed commencement point.
