WOW awesome showing from PC. wicked art all round, I havent seen too many of the 2d entrys, peeping them now, there is some wickedly inspiring concepts in there. Big congrats to Matroskin for snagging the gold
Awesome job guys! Was worried after they announced the semi finalist and the decisions to have some make it over others but it seems all the winners are awesome works of art. Congratz everyone!
Oh man. I'm stoked PC kicked ass this year! Congrats. And everyone who didn't make the top 7.. congrats to them too! That's still rad. Can't wait for next year.
Congrats Matroskin! Yours was awesome. I had a feeling you were going to win it when I saw the entries posted. Definitely well deserved. Nice to see Polycount so well represented in the top 10.
Whoah, impressive environment stuff. I love seeing the results of the competitions - it's great seeing how people have developed their stuff over time. Truely inspiring!

Hmmmmm, I wonder if people are going to actually get anything. I know many people are still waiting on Unearthly 1 prizes and Dominance War 4 prizes.

Agreed; unfortunately these are only some of the issues with the competitions being run by FredH. There was a thread about this on pc not too long ago, by a guy who was still waiting on DW1 or 2 prizes. At least people are starting to talk about it, instead of bleeting 'Thanks FredH cause these comps would not exist without him!!1!!' Of course they would, they would just be called something different. And would run on time, and the winners would actually receive their prizes. And the results wouldnt take 11 months to come out.
At least let's give the winners the deserve spotlight and share this as much as possible. Cos in the end, finishing a scene like this and winning is the biggest prize.

Yeah, there are some issues with deadlines etc.
I agree its not fun waiting over and over again.
But if other contests "of course would exist" there would be some already wouldn't they
Since they don't exist something suggests that its not that easy to organize one and keep it happening again and again
Blizzard did one a while ago and promised to make it yearly event and to improve it year after year... Only one was held. And I don't think its because Blizz had financial issues :P
"Scene from a Movie" was a great one but only 1 was held...
Only GA challenges keep going right now. I don't think its because Fred got rid of all the other better future organizers
There are other smaller and good ones of course, but I didn't see any of the same scale.
anyways, congrats to all who made it to 15-7! I had a fare share of stress while waiting :P
As I mentioned on GA forum, my fav still remains brisck1's entry, I thought it'll get 1st place by default

Well done guys!
2D stuff is just as awesome.
Congrats to the fellow polycounters who won.
But no seriously congrats to all the winners and Im glad to see black and green always in the top!
I'll wrap this up on Monday for the news. Congrats everyone
Polycount get's the gold! (For 3D anyways.)
Anyway, congratulations guys! PC ftw!
While this entry is on-topic i think that it's the most visually unappealing out of the 7.
Other than that congrats to all the winners!
Still kinda disappointed that the one with the ice and flowers didn't even get a look in, but it's all good stuff.
Isn't that a Triad gang sign?
China always wins 2d, hah!
Yeah...congrats to the guy and all, but I agree. It looks a bit barren. And I can't spot half of the textures on the sheet used in the entry.
P.S. I ain't too crazy about places either but I don't think it matters much. Everyone's done a great job.
I would say that usually Korea wins (maybe that's why they were out of the contest :P)
and 2nd place 3d
awesome work!

None of the contests offer anything I personally can use, it's all for fun.
Haha, seeing these winners just makes me want to give up completely! Jaw-droppingly awesome everyone!

Wouldn't agree there, Challenges shouldnt have prizes, but its nice for the big ones to have nice prizes...
