I finished up my Hellbound skin pack. It was a beast. I went into Zbrush and made all new normal maps and textures which meant new spec and gloss obviously. So I had to break the submission into 6 packs (light, medium, and heavy in both summer and winter) in order to fit up on the shop.

It was fun though. I put a lot into it and I hope the community likes it. Thanks to everyone who stopped by the WIP thread and gave kind words or help along the way.

Good luck everyone!

Kyle_RE · Feb 2016

Wow, amazing work everyone. You guys went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you very much to everyone who participated. We will be contacting and announcing the winners once we've had time to thoroughly consider each entry. Thanks again!

Kyle_RE · Feb 2016

Hey Everyone,

Please double check that you've accepted the latest Steam Workshop Agreement. Some of your submissions in the Steam Workshop are not public because some of you have not done this yet.

Thanks!

Kyle

Kyle_RE · Feb 2016

Hello Everyone,

At long last, the winners of the Polycount War Paint contest have been announced. Please visit our blog for more info.

Please keep in mind that even if you weren't selected as a "winner" of this competition, your skin set may still be integrated into CoH2's in-game store at some point in the future.

Thank you again to everyone who submitted.

georider · Feb 2016

can we now eraze them from curate and make them ready to use?

skyline5gtr · Feb 2016

Wait, I thought you said in the Q & A thread that there were no "winners". So now your saying that there are and those are being incorporated for sure . Looks like 1 winner per faction ?

Relic_Orca = "hey folks - there is no limit on winners per category. The jury at Relic decides which skins qualify to make it into the game. So there may be multiple winners - especially in categories where there are multiple top quality entries."

Either way congrats to the winners

Kyle_RE · Feb 2016

@georider
That is up to you but highly recommend not doing so. There is still a good chance yours and other skins will be integrated into the game and in-game store at a future date. The "winners" announced was done as more of a ceremonial announcement to tie up the War Paint contest (it wouldn't really be a competition if no one was declared a winner). The "prize" so to speak is that these skins are guaranteed to be integrated and will be the first skin sets to do so. Of course the prize is also that the creators receive 30% of all revenue generated from their skins.

@SKYLINE5GTR
Well based off the winners announced, this does accurately match what Orca said. The jury at Relic picked 10 skins that qualify to make it into the game at this time and thus there are multiple winners in different categories because there were multiple top quality entries.

That being said, as I mentioned to georider above, just because a skin wasn't picked as a winner in the War Pain contest, there is still a good chance it will eventually be integrated into the game and in-game store at some point in the future. We feel that all the skins submitted in this contest are high enough quality for that to happen, its most likely just a matter of time.

skyline5gtr · Feb 2016

Gotcha I'm tracking now, thanks for the clarification . Now I play the waiting game .....

georider · Feb 2016

ok , it's fine they 'll be as it were, I just asked about the skins since I have many requests from the community for release them, I did not asked that regarding contest etc etc. As for the process everything is fine to me no worries , for me is more imortand to have more editable options inside , and I'm talking for infantry , commanders etc etc. Thank you very much Kyle for your responce.

Thanks for organising the contest! I had a lot of fun, learnt a lot and met new people.

However.. how can the "Blue Steel" skin set possibly win the "Historic" category? Soviet armour was never painted blue. Call me a sore loser if you want, but what is the point of having a "historic skins" option in the graphics menu if we will get blue T-34s?

So, I appreciate that my work might fall short on its own merits or that it may not be suitable for inclusion because of issues with decals. Therefore, I plan to remove it from the curated limbo and release it as a ready-to-play mod instead. Again, thanks for hosting this and I would appreciate any advice on how I could improve my chances next time.

WAR PAINT - Your final entry!
