MakubeC.3026 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Good luck to everybody that submitted their work. I'm very anxious to see what the competition looks like. Hope mine can make it to the finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AegisRunestone.8672 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Yeah, I submitted my weapon last night at about 3 pm PT (4 pm my time). I worked on it ALL day. I finished/cleaned up the lineart, added base colors and then did some basic shading since... honestly, this is my first REAL drawing (and I had to look up shading tutorials). It all started with a mish-mash as a reference and then making my own sketch via pencil and sketch paper. I'm really grateful I have a scanner. XD Good luck, everyone!

Hopefully we'll get to see all the entries somewhere as well, i'd really like to see all of them, not just the ones that make it to the final ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crycerasobs.7864 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I'm bummed I didn't get around to entering this, oh whell D: When does voting start? And do you guys have any plans to do more contests like this in future? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightX.6294 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Pls deliver us from the hype, anet. When will we get to see the enteries? @"Gaile Gray.6029" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadLass.3821 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 So I uploaded my design a weapon contest entry before it ended, and I looked over the rules again today to make sure, and I realised that I wasn't supposed to put my account number on it, just my account name. Will I be disqualified or am I ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArenaNet Staff Stéphanie Bourguet.5287 Posted October 25, 2017 Author ArenaNet Staff Share Posted October 25, 2017 Hi! There are so many good entries (we received more than 900 of them)! Thank you all for entering the contest! Somehow, I feel that it will be tough to do all of them justice as there were a lot of good concepts submitted: Narrowing down the selection to 20 finalists is not easy! Hope you will like the final selection and find one in particular you want to give your vote to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakubeC.3026 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 OMG, 900?!?! I hope you do some Special Mentions from the ones you guys liked the most but didn't make it to the finalist. Another fun idea would be to upload all the entries so we can spend an entire afternoon browsing them in awe haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we'll create a Reddit and/or Forum thread later where all participants could post their entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AegisRunestone.8672 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I think the people who entered can upload their picture of their weapon after the contest is over. At least, that's what I got from the rules. I mean, you'd want to upload it without your personal info, account name, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least, that's what I got from the rules. I mean, you'd want to upload it without your personal info, account name, etc. @"Stéphanie Bourguet.5287" Is this correct? Because I assumed I could upload my entry (with all personal info, email, and account name removed) after the contest was over to say, my deviantArt page? Edit: Hang on, the answer is on the first page of this thread: > @"Stéphanie Bourguet.5287" said: > > **Iridium.6385:** > > - Is it allowed to post an uploaded weapon concept to other places, for example this forum or reddit, while potential winners are being selected (before the community gets to vote) as well as while the community is voting? I assumed that since you are planning to erase any additional information (weapon name, explanations, etc) from the concept, you want the people to vote on the design only. But advertising a concept on the forums would ruin that. After seeing some people posting their concepts I almost did it myself but decided to ask to be sure. > > Posting a concept submitted for the contest publicly (anywhere) before the finalists are announced is not allowed by the rules. Once we announce the finalists, artists whose entries were not selected can share theirs. Finalists would have to wait for votes to end. So, basically, once the contest ends, everyone is safe to post their concepts on reddit, deviantArt, etc. Though, if you didn't make the final 20, you can post it once the voting starts.

That would be cool, but getting the artists of all 900 concepts to post their entries in a single thread is very unlikely. But i guess its our best shot since the team won't remove the personal info out of 900 pictures. A forum thread would be better. Maybe link it to reddit to grab some attention.

Orpheal.8263 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 So ,when is it when the votign wil begin, is thevsome kind of date, where we can expect that the 20 finalists wil lhave been chosen by then and the voting starts? I either have overread that fact , or it hasn#t been announced yet, when we can start voting ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheal.8263 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Side Note: it would be very nice of you Anet, if you could announce the beginjing of the Contest Voting here in the forums by makign up again nice a nice red eye cathcer announcement on the top of the forums, like you did that for avatars. That way it can't be overseen by anyone, once the moment has come, where we can start to vote for the twenty finalists ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayakaru.6583 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Last time you cut out all products, allowing only joke options. Is there a gallery with all 900 designs?
