*** Character Sculpting Contest 2022 Winner Announcement ***

Chris Ellerby

Thank you to everyone who entered our 2022 Character Sculpting Contest! We were deeply impressed by the variety and artistry of your submissions.  Although choosing a winner was a challenge, the Stan Winston School team votes have been tallied.  So without further ado, it is our pleasure to extend a huge CONGRATULATIONS to our Grand Prize winner, Christopher Notbusch, for his stunning work The Siege Giant!

Here’s Christopher’s story behind this epic creation:

"An old evil wizard acquired the remains of a fallen giant. Using dark magic and engineering, he brought the giant back to life to be his worker tasked with building siege equipment that the wizard sells to the neighboring kingdoms to wage war on each other.”

We can’t wait to see more of your work, Christopher, so keep sculpting and keep sharing!
