This was a fun competition! Josh and Kaspar had a hell of a time choosing the right winners. Most of the submissions were so realistic and genuine, a lot of the effort and care really showed. It seemed like many engineers and designers really leveraged that free limited-time-only Keyshot License. Thanks to everyone who submitted work and a hearty congratulations to Rodrigo Soria, Tim Purdy and Hailstone!
Best Rendering
Powerful Engine II - Rodrigo Soria
Rodrigo Soria demonstrated his skill for creating an amazing model and then creating incredible compositions using the rich capabilities of KeyShot. The materials and lighting in each shot submitted displayed a level of attention that comes together to create an absolutely stunning image.
Best Animation
9-Cylinder Radial Engine Animation - Tim Purdy
Tim Purdy took a very detailed, highly intricate model created by Jan Elg and created a wonderful animation of how the model functions and assembles. This is a perfect example of KeyShot animation capabilities and shows Tim’s thought process into putting together the steps for an effective presentation of the model.
Best Student Entry
Our student entry from Hailstone is simply fabulous. It starts with a great model from Brian Law and is completed with an animation that brings the model to life showing both the operation and physical beauty of the model.
Honourable Mentions
There were plenty of Honourable Mentions to go about. Keyshot is sending everyone here a highly detailed render of a Keyshot T-Shirt. Its more real than an actual T-shirt! Just kidding - you'll get the real thing.
