Big thanks to everyone who entered our 2023 Creature Making Contest! Your submissions were fantastic, and, as always, it was extremely tough to choose a winner. But one entry stood out to us for its unforgettable blending of familiar and otherworldy forms, and it is our pleasure to offer a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to our Grand Prize winner, Gergő Lengyel, for his entry Alien Creature, an extraterrestrial nightmare that none of us on the Stan Winston School team would like to meet in outer space.



In Gergő’s words:
“When designing, my intention was to make this creature look humanoid at first glance, but on closer inspection, I would move away from the ordinary form. It has no hands, multiple tails, and instead of a head, it has a transparent bladder with tentacles on the end.”

You achieved your design goal in out-of-this-world fashion, Gergő, and we look forward to seeing what you come up with next!
