Blender users can freely add the second hashtag together with #sculptober. Similar to Sculptober but completed in Blender 3D software specifically. Software Focused Challenge – #blendtober (Blender3D) We are curious to see how it will turn out this year and we hope that next year this initiative will have a great resonance. Andrew Sink encourages to participate in the Scantober challenge. The results from 3D scans in most cases can be further edited in 3D design software and later 3D printed. ![]() (Image: SparkyFace5) 3D Scanning – #scantober Chomp Resin Print – All Sculptober models by SparkyFace5 are available on Patreon PROS: 3D Print 30 day challenge could help to gain slicer software skills, for example, and test the endurance of 3D printers (torture test). However, we see some potential in turning it into a nice challenge at some point.ĬONS: It is harder to organize such a challenge and justify it, as plastic prints and failures may quickly become an excessive waste, bad for our environment. Printober, or with any ending after “Print”, is not a challenge this year, but just a hashtag on social media. Types of 30 Day Challenges 3D Printing – #printober Just briefly scanning social media we found Inktober, Pixeltober, Sculptober, Blendtober, and Scantober, etc. In the 3D printing community, October is designers’ month indeed. If January challenges kick-off together with all sorts of New Year resolutions, then October is the 2nd month of the academic year, which comes after September warm-up month. (Just an idea) The Best Time for 30 Day Challenges for DesignersĪccording to our observation, the best months for 30 day challenges for designers are October and January. To make it more accessible for challenge followers (viewers), we would suggest promoting the idea to tag each day separately: like #sculptober1 #sculptober2 #sculptober3 etc. For example, we quickly found 100+ entries of Gjinn on Day 8 of Sculptober 2020 challenge on Instagram. If Twitter is good to interact with creators and share their masterpieces, then Instagram works well as a gallery. The best way to follow such 30 day challenges is following special hashtags on Twitter and Instagram. You don’t have a lot of time to over think what you are going to do when you are trying to finish a model a day! Chomp by Chelsey (ChaosCoreTech) – All Sculptober models are available on Patreonīen (Follygon): For me, Sculptober is the way to get back into the creative mindset with extra fun. Jason (PrintThatThing: I enjoy creating with a global community and challenging myself out of my comfort zone.Ĭhelsey (CaosCoreTech): What I like most about the sculptober challenge is that it forces you to be more creative, and make a quick decision and just go with it. It’s a little win each day to produce something new. I also think it’s a great thing to help develop momentum and to get away from perfectionism. Tessa (SparkyFace5): I enjoy sharing with the community and seeing what other people are creating. Here is what 3D designers say about 30 day challenges: Partly it’s because of social media exposure, increasing the following base, etc. Partly it has the same effect as going to the gym either with friends or alone. Social media attention and light competition apparently help to go through this challenge. ![]() Advanced design skills will come with experience. As for learning the skills in 3D design, if you have already designed a model or two, then it should be easier for you to add a 3D designing routine into your daily life after such as 30 day challenges. The bigger the behavioral change, the longer it will take and vice versa. ![]() The more difficult the behavioral change was perceived, the longer it took for the habit to form.Īccording to scientists, behavior change comes approximately after 66 days. When routine is established, be it writing, drawing, designing or anything else – perfection will come with experience.Ī study published in the European Journal of Social Psychology found that the length of time it takes for a new behavior to become automatic varies from 18 days to 254 days. In this case, designing daily, open-mindedly / creatively, day by day, results in turning the process into routine. Such challenges make a big push towards change of the behaviour. You won’t wake up as a PRO after 30 days. Images: Tessa (SparkyFace5) and Chelsey (CaosCoreTech)ģ0 Days – Is It Enough to Improve Designing Skills?Īccording to participants, yes, but not directly. The art challenge is simple: create one model per day for 21 days using the prompts that we provide. List of 30 Day Challenges #3December2022Challenge
