This is outstanding work!

mi sembra un'iniziativa interessante :)

I understand your frustration. To participate in the contest, it is indeed necessary to be a patron of both CA3D and Printmania. This is due to the partnership between the two Patreons. If you're not interested in Printmania's models, it can be a tough situation. However, this condition is essential for contest participation. If you have any further questions or need more information, feel free to ask!

so in order to enter the contest I have to join Printmania's Patreon? Not that I have anything against them , they dont produce models I am interested in. and despite being a CA3D member for over 2 years I dont get to enter?
Carlos Eduardo
Yes, you're right! Post at least 2 Work in Progress (WIP) photos using #Superprintcontest on Instagram or the contest channels on Discord. Then, share the finished model on Instagram with the same hashtag and tag @ca.3d.studios and @printmania.studios. WIP photos and final photos should be separate. Let me know if you have more questions!

I'm a little confused on the in progress posts so do we post a photo for the models ones I have in progress and then ones I finish the models I also post the complete painted models is that correct? I just do not want to count my in progress photos as the complete photos although I'm sure I you guys could tell lol
Carlos Eduardo
No problem. Any scale for Print Mania models is allowed.
Manuel Herrera
I have a question regarding Print Mania models, they are intended for FDM printers but I don't have one, I have a small Mars 3, is there a problem if I resize the models to a smaller scale?
Carlos Eduardo
Any Print Mania model is allowed, including Egyptian ones. To participate in the contest, you must be a paid supporter of both Print Mania and CA3D. Entry requires you to present one model from each Patreon. This means you'll need to submit a total of two models, one from each source, to qualify for the contest.
Justin Richmond
Thankyou btw for giving us the Egypt pack from them otherwise I couldn't be in this
Kiri Howard
2questions. Can we use the colab Egyptian ones and do we need to have PAID subscriptions or are the free subs ok?
Burak N. Kurt
No stupid questions. Sizes say so in the file name
Carlos Eduardo
yes, any CA3D model is allowed
Phillip
Hey another stupid noob question here... How do I know if the models are 1/6 or 1/9?
Memento Mori
Are busts (CA3D) allowed? or only complete figures? thanks
Carlos Eduardo
Yes, our older models had 1-12 scale versions, so for those specific models, it is allowed.
Justin Richmond
Ooooooo another one oooooo im in. Sorry do we have any models from printmania or is this a different patrion
Ron Hockman
Some models are provided with a 1/12 scale. For those models is 1/12 acceptable?
Carlos Eduardo
Models printed before the announcement, but not yet painted, are allowed.
RedRaven
I've printed but have not painted it yet. Can I use that one?
Carlos Eduardo
Yes, model from CA3D and another from PrintMania
Phillip
Just to be clear its 2 models were submitting?
