The CG Challenges are the largest online art contests of their kind, with huge amounts of sponsorship and publicity for each challenge. Working within guidelines and software limitations, artists are challenged to create outstanding artworks based upon set themes while showing their work-in-progress to the community. Brought to you by the CG Society

This time, the challenge was to create material for the promotion of a (potential) blockbuster film based on EON, a novel by the world famous writer Greg Bear.

The work of the contestants is absolutely impressive. I just saw the winning trailer, and believe me, I’d love to see this turned into a full movie. The trailer is amazing

The trailer that got in second place is also quite spectacular, click here to watch it. Or, better yet, go check out all the info and artwork created during this challenge.
