The first-ever PCBWay 3D Printing Design Contest is officially launched!
We invite all 3D printing enthusiasts to unleash their creativity in two exciting categories: design a 3D model based on PCBWay’s official mascot "Eon," or create your very own original character, figurine, or doll! Winning entries will not only receive great prizes but may also be professionally 3D printed and displayed!
This contest features TWO independent categories. Participants can enter ONE or BOTH:
Create a design inspired by PCBWay’s official mascot "Eon," which represents our commitment to quality, efficiency,
and sustainability. You are encouraged to imagine Eon in different outfits, expressions, poses, and styles.

Let your imagination run free! Design any original 3D character, action figure, doll, or collectible you like. Whether it's a
fantasy creature, mecha warrior, anime-inspired figure, or something entirely new—we welcome it all!
Each category will feature the following awards (Eight Winners In Total):
All shortlisted designs will have the chance to be 3D printed into physical models and featured on PCBWay’s platform.
