    Gijs has selected the 2014 World Cup, that's being held in Brazil as his topic for this weeks contest. So lets see what you can come up with to commemorate this global event!

    The rules:
    - Has to be awesome
    - Has to be completed by April 23th, when we will judge the contest and announce the winners
    - Must be your own model, but it can be something you've already been working on

    What's up for grabs?

    -$50 in Shapeways cash to the first place winner
    -$10 in Shapeways cash to the most unexpected, crazy off the wall idea we see

    Cheers & Happy Shaping!

    Pretty sure the ip of the Football World Cup is owned by FIFA - are you sure this competition is pukka?

    Great question!

    The answer is yes as long as you don't use any of their copyrights in your design. (let's not use their logo for instance)

    This is a contest about SWAG - so, fan art mostly!

    Even the title of the competition would seem to be covered...

    Hi all. I am very honored that I could choose this weeks topic for the contest. I hope that there will be as many entries as last week..

    I designed this flipflop pendant with studs. Like a football shoe but for Brazilians.

    I'm mot sure if I can attend but than maybe it is nice for some inspiration..

    Good luck everybody :)

    Only just seen this. Hope it's not too late! I made this desktop piece and have one with pretty much all the big teams in my store.

    This model is available here: http://shpws.me/owvu

    Same as... only just seen this comp.

    This is the sort of thing that could be included in a (properly formatted) weekly newsletter.

    yes I agree! newsletter or mentioning the competition on the homepage will increase the participation. It is a fun item and this encourages people to engage and focus on a certain topic.
