KitBash Acquires ArtStation and Sketchfab 

Today we announced that the ArtStation and Sketchfab platforms are becoming part of KitBash, the company behind 3D art platforms KitBash3D and Greyscalegorilla. Using KitBash3D and Greyscalegorilla, artists and studios can access extensive libraries of 3D assets and materials, professional design and animation tools, educational resources, and workflow technology that is integrated directly into leading creative applications. 

ArtStation and Sketchfab are joining KitBash as Epic continues to prioritize building Unreal Engine 6, Fortnite, the developer ecosystem, and the Epic Games Store.

“ArtStation and Sketchfab are go-to platforms for artists to share and manage their art. KitBash will expand opportunities for artists at every stage of their creation process to connect and showcase their work in new ways,” said Bill Clifford, SVP of the Unreal Ecosystem at Epic Games. “KitBash and Epic have had a longstanding partnership and we look forward to continuing to work together to offer open and accessible platforms for all creators.” 

“KitBash has been part of the creative community for over a decade, and we know firsthand how central ArtStation and Sketchfab are to artists and 3D creators around the world,” said Banks Boutté, Co-CEO of KitBash. “These are platforms where people have built portfolios, careers, and communities. That trust is real, and our first priority is to protect what users value most about each platform, listen to the people who rely on them, and build thoughtfully for the future.”
