I love seeing all these entries, keep them coming!

It's been a long journey since march 3rd 2025, the day i decided to start the world of Pipin officially.

To those who was here since the start, you would notice i started my design journey from entering contest back to back, i don't see the regular followers much lately so i hope it means they are just too busy but if you are reading this now, Hello! 

Contest has been a blessing and a curse, the pressure of not winning was always difficult to handle, but overtime i noticed something, the more i entered, the less i become worry about the outcome and most importantly i noticed my modelling skills improved and eventually confident enough to create my full vision. 

I wanted to share that magic with you all and especially those who still hone their craft with human modelling, these designs takes a tremendous of time and dedications and i think this small format create a good platform to test out your theories without demanding too much print time and material cost.

Most importantly…HAVE FUN

Finally what you are here for : Winning tips

BONBON is printable emotion, something that is inherently not possible to print, its the feeling of surprise and joy in a physical form, so think about the moment of opening a capsule to reveal what's inside.

Playability is a huge bonus, something that enrich others time is a great experience for the bonbon users.

Printability is a considering factor, as someone who use minimal supports and no glue for my designs, i would like to see similar approaches. But if you must use either of them, i hope you can make the support easy to separate.

but these are just tips from me.

Your mission if you choose to accept it. is to…

SURPRISE THE WORLD!
