Sunstella Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo) will hold the 'Sunstella Model Kit Modeling Contest', accepting works created using 3D printing.
'I bought a 3D printer, but I don't know what to make...'
'I can't do anything complicated yet...'
'Is it okay to submit something simple?'
If you feel this way, please participate.
This contest is a place where not only advanced users but also 'people who want to start enjoying it' and 'beginners' can take the center stage.
Even small ideas are fine.
Please show us what you've 'tried making'.
Excellent works will be exhibited at the Sunstella booth at Maker Faire Tokyo 2026 in September 2026.
