Welcome to RenderHub’s “Let’s Get Weird: Surreal 3D Render Contest”. This is your chance to bend physics, remix dreams, and build impossible worlds where melting cities float through neon fog and everyday objects become unforgettable monsters. Whether your style is haunting, hilarious, or hypnotic, we want renders that make people stop, stare, and think, “What am I looking at… and why can’t I look away?” Step into the uncanny and crank your imagination past reality! This contest runs through March 31st. Good luck to all artists. We can’t wait to see how weird this gets.
Prizes (Total $1,900)
- 1st Place: $750
