GEARS OF WAR 3 - Gears United / Artists United Contest Winners

Artists met in the battlefield, going rogue or joining forces to create epic art for the Gears of War 3 Gears United/Artists United Contest. From bloodied silhouettes to swarming locusts – judges poured through mountains of killer artwork. Members of the Epic Games creative team finally locked their sights on three winners for ultimate victory.

The 1st place winner drew their way to the top, securing a cool $10,000 and a battle-ready Xbox 360 Gears of War 3 Limited Edition Console Bundle. 2nd and 3rd will also get cash, consoles, points and more. The 97 Semi-Finalists won't be left behind in the trenches and will each receive $200 cash and the Gears of War 3 game.

~TOMAHAWK-DRAGON Nov 5, 2011

Has any of the other 97 Semi-Finalists received there Prize yet?

~mirana Nov 5, 2011

Yep.

~TOMAHAWK-DRAGON Nov 5, 2011

hmm... how long ago did you get it? I haven't got anything and I sent back the info that they wanted.

~mirana Nov 6, 2011

Mmm, around the 25th. It was very quick, considering most prizes I've ever won take at least a month or more to show up. They have 100 people to send stuff to, so I'd wait a little longer before contacting $Moonbeam13.

~TOMAHAWK-DRAGON Nov 8, 2011

sweet, I just received the prize this morning. I all good now!
