Collections: Curate and share your favorite Sketchfab art

Back to overview

Sketchfab has long been a place for artists to publish and share their work. As a team, we love staff picking and sharing our favorite art each day and we often send each other models we find inspiring.

So we’re thrilled to announce that as of today, we’ve made this process of sharing your favorites easier. Anyone can now become a digital curator with Collections!

Folders allowed you to categorize your own work, Collections go a step further and let you easily gather and share work from other artists too.

How it works

See a model you like? Besides liking it, you can now also add it to a collection with the new ‘ADD TO’ button:

When you click it, you’re prompted to pick a collection to add it to, or create a new one. If you had folders before, you’ll see they have become collections you can grow:

If models are part of a Collection (or of more than one Collection), this will be shown on the Model page, making it easier to discover more related work:
