Sketchfab Destruction Simulation Challenge

Sometimes it’s just fun to (virtually) smash something up! This month’s simulation challenge is all about destruction – we want you to use your favourite destruction or physics plugin to create something that captures the joy of breaking, smashing, shattering and ‘sploding! Animated or freeze-frame – it’s up to you!

Update – Winner: Fallen Tripod by supirioth

2nd place

3rd place

A barrel of dynamite going off? Demolition of a derelict building? The annihilation of an entire planet in the midst of an intergalactic war? They’re all worthy entries… ?

TL;DR: Create a scene of something smashing to bits using whatever workflow you’re comfortable with and upload it to Sketchfab and tag it #DestructionChallenge.

Rules

• Create a chaotic, destructive scene using your favourite software.
• Static or animated scenes welcome – maybe think about adding sound and setting up for VR too!
• Submit only new work, but feel free to submit multiple scenes.
• Once you’ve created your scene, upload it to Sketchfab, tag it #DestructionChallenge.
• Share what you’re planning to create on the challenge thread in the forum!
