Published 12 months ago • 1 min read


Hey Reader,

Zach here,

I’m super excited to announce that the CG Boost Challenge is finally back.

It’s new,

It’s improved,

And it’s now live!

We titled it “Inspiring Moments”.

A fantastic way to improve as an artist and push yourself, is by giving yourself simple limitations. For example, what if you just use cubes to build a scene?

Introducing our first-ever Cubic Worlds Challenge.

In this challenge, you’ll be limited to using only cubic shapes to create an 8-second long 3D animation, inspired by your favorite media, whether it’s a book, movie, TV show, video game etc.

Watch the following video or click on the community link below to join the challenge and start creating.

​

To help you with the Cubic Worlds Challenge, we’re offering a 20% discount on our Cubic Worlds Course, as well as the fantastic Blender animation course by our guest judge, P2Design, called “Alive”.

Both courses will provide you with the skills and knowledge you need to create an amazing 3D animation using only cubic shapes.

Use the coupon code CUBICWORLDS20 for both courses to get your 20% discount.

I’m excited to see what inspiring moment you choose from your favorite media, and how you interpret that as a cubic animation.

Now, have fun with the challenge, and as always...

Stay creative!

Hey Reader, Zach here, Have you ever struggled with getting your 3D character’s walking animation to look right? I know how hard it is without proper guidance. It’s easy to get lost in all those tiny details that matter and not be able to see what’s making it all go wrong. I’ve got something for you that can help you understand the walk cycle animation inside out. My friend Brian Kouhi (a professional animator and founder of ToAnimate) shared a full 1-hour-long lesson on making a walk cycle...

Hey Reader, Zach here, If you are struggling to find the motivation to learn 3D, or if you have abandoned projects and courses half way, you are most definitely not alone. In fact, I believe it is the most common struggle all artists go through. This also happened to Tetiana Markov, one of our passionate CG Boost students and challenge participants. We were very excited to interview her, to share her story of how she overcame all kinds of self-doubt and got her work featured on Blender Nation...

Hey Reader, Zach here, For the past 6 years, our tutor Martin Klekner has been hard at work, exploring all the possible ways to create epic 3D environments in Blender. As a personal challenge, he tried it without the use of any paid add-ons, the results of all his research he accumulated in his Master 3D Environments in Blender course. 3D scenes you learn to create in the environment course. As Martin’s challenge and his course prove - making awesome, grand scale landscapes in Blender is...
