SKETCHUP: 3-D CHALLENGE (MY PROFESSIONAL PORTFOLIO AND COMPETITION)


Joining a competition is not just to win a prize; but to gain knowledge and to be able to improve your skills through these experiences.


1. SKETCHUP 3-D CHALLENGE

3-D Challenge is an online 3-D competition organized by the “Sketchup Texture” group which aims to promote community interaction among Sketchup users in a professional manner. This 3-D Challenge is an opportunity to expose, educate and improve the skills of all 3-D artists in the international level.


Here, the participants were tasked to modify a given 3-D model and enhance the rendering presentation using Sketchup. All participants were allowed to use any supplementary software for the digital rendering process. In terms of rules and regulation, the participants were required to register first in the 3-D Challenge official website before they could submit their entries.
