Challenge: Halloween Prints
For October, members brought in Halloween prints ranging from costume props and wearables to skeletons and lit jack-o'-lanterns.
The focus: Spooky builds and print quality
Entries covered four main areas:
- Costume props and wearables. Helmets, masks, cosplay gear, badges, and prop replicas.
- Spooky decor. Skulls, spiderwebs, ghosts, LED tea light pumpkins, and wall hangings.
- Articulated and mechanical prints. Print-in-place bats, articulated skeletons, and moving decorations.
- Specialty materials. Glow-in-the-dark filament, translucent or color-changing materials, and multi-color HueForge art.
Submission requirements
- Physical model. Brought to the October 28th, 2026 meetup.
- Open to all makers. Original CAD designs and community models from Printables, MakerWorld, or Thangs were all eligible.

Judging and prize
