Bfahome Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Seems… sketchy. Having the winning design made into a 3D model doesn't seem like that great of a prize, especially if the person running the contest is going to then sell prints of it. Overall doesn't seem like a very robust contest. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tourmalinex Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) Hi, I am the one who created the contest, the designer of the model gets it for their own uses. That way they can get discounts if they buy it themselves and they can also sign up for a student discount on shapeways that’s 15% of models you print yourself. Also the average shapeways community cost to make a model is $25 per hour, and a model takes 8 hours to complete or even weeks.

tourmalinex Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I was hoping a lot more people would be interested in the contest.So far only one person has submitted a mask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people just don't now about your contest, if this topic wouldn't have been made, I know I wouldn't. So we just need to spread the word; adding a link in your signature might be a good idea.

tourmalinex Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 So I add this to the rules/terms&conditions "The winner of the contest will receive their own personal 3d model files of the mask that they submitted, these files will not be 3d printed and will not be sold on shapeways or any other site they belong to the person or persons who designed the mask." and added a link in my sig. Are their another things I should do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are their another things I should do?I have no problem with you selling a mask of my design, but that's just me. I don't really have a way to print the mask if I had the files, so that would make it rather pointless. I suggest you make options for the winner to choose from. Maybe they just want the files and don't want you selling their designs. On the other hand, some my not mind you selling the design and would gladly take some sort of discount. You can think it over and decide what works for you. You should also open your own topic about the contest in general art, as this is where most of the people who would be interested lurk. -RAKRONDEWL Edited August 12, 2016 by Rakrondewl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
