Community Challenge Season 1 COMPLETE

Community Weekly challenges
1

Before we get into the scores, we want to thank everyone for participating in these challenges. We are very excited about your involvement and we hope to continue building on this experience and make the next season more interesting and fun for you.

What Season 1 was about

The goal behind Season 1 was to create a structured way to go deeper with Shapr3D and to push you past the tools you’re comfortable with and build real familiarity with the ones you’d been ignoring.

Parametric sketching is foundational. Every challenge in Season 1 was designed around a single question: can you solve this problem with only what we give you? The fact that so many of you stuck with it across all five weeks and that the submissions got stronger as the season progressed tells us the format works.

Now, let’s get to the good part :partying_face:

We want your feedback

Season 2 is coming and we want to build it around what actually worked for you, and what didn’t.

A few things we’re genuinely curious about:

  • How did the difficulty curve feel across the five weeks? Too easy, too hard, about right?

  • Was one week per challenge the right cadence, or would you prefer more time?

  • What tool or topic do you want Season 2 to be built around?

  • Anything about the format, submission process, or scoring you’d change?

Feel free to drop your answers in the thread.

Season 2 announcement

We’ll be back soon with the full Season 2 reveal.

If Season 1 was about building the foundation, Season 2 is about building on it. See you then :hammer_and_wrench:

Congratulations @Xdrakosha! You’re going to love the Spacemouse, I’ve been using one since back in my Uni days - 25 years ago, geez. You’ll never want to model without one again.

I can say that the tasks themselves were quite easy. The only real challenge for me was understanding the limitations of each task. I’d prefer more detailed descriptions of what exactly is expected and what tools or techniques are allowed.

To be honest, seven days between tasks was too long for me. :slightly_smiling_face: I’d prefer one or two days per task.

Anything related to parametric design would be fun for me. :slight_smile:

P.S. As a prize for the next challenge, I’d love to see a 3D scanner. It’s something I’ve wanted for a long time, but I still can’t justify the price.

I’ve had it for two years already. :slight_smile:

You were doing great too. I could feel you breathing down my neck. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
