3December 2022

Welcome to Sketchfab 3December 2022!

Can you believe that 3December is celebrating its fifth year? For the past four years we have been delighted to see 3December participants wrapping up their year with a fast and focused challenge. It’s a wonderful opportunity to test your creativity and see how your art has progressed from one year to the next.

The art challenge is simple: create one model per day for 21 days using the prompts that we provide. Upload each of your models to Sketchfab and tag them #3December2022Challenge.

Not sure if you can commit to all 21 days? That’s ok! Even a few days of 3December are better than none at all. 🙂 Plus, you have until January 2 to complete as many as you can.

How to Enter

  • Use any tool and workflow you like to create your models. The models can be static or animated.
  • Once you’ve created your models, upload them to Sketchfab, tag them #3December2022Challenge. Provide titles and brief descriptions for each of your uploads.
  • Submit only new work.
  • Use the #3December2022Challenge hashtag if you want to share your entries on social media.

Full participation details are available below. To give or get feedback on challenge entries, head over to the Sketchfab Forum or Discord. And to see all the entries, check out the tag gallery.
