We don't have any means of checking where did the models in the photos come from, now do we? We cannot forbid you to share the templates with each other, but since they are DRM-Free and GOG.com exclusive we would humbly ask you to be considerate if doing so.

We'll have something nice to announce tomorrow. But when we're done with the announcement, we'll be releasing three out of six paper toys to general public, so everyone can participate in the competition :-) We thought it's the right thing to do here. We'll also extend the competition deadline to give everyone fair chance at putting the paper toys together and preparing the scenes.

So, tomorrow, after we make our announcement (what announcement? you'll see ;-) ), drop by this thread for new official details and template download links!

You can find the paper dolls by clicking here :D
Yes, you can use Photoshop :)

You're welcome :)

just a little under 2 hours left! Please submit your final entries! ;-)

I updated the post today with a gallery and the winner announcement details :-)

"We've received quite a lot of amazing entries - just check out the gallery [at the end of the news post]. Every single one of these has a chance at one of the prizes! The winners will be announced after the combined GOG.com / CD Projekt RED jury passes the decision, on Monday, August 25th. Good luck to you all!"

We're experiencing a slight delay. We're still arguing which entries should be awarded. We're sorry, but the results won't be in today. There are just too many original ideas in there. :-)

The results are in! I'll prepare an announcement and post it after today's release. :-)

You've sent us a ton of excellent entries full of great ideas, good humor, and displaying considerable skill in execution. The competition was very tight, and it took us and our friends of CD Projekt RED a lot of ummm... discussing (yeah, let's pretend it was all civil) to reach a verdict, but here it is!

THE WITCHER 3: WILD HUNT Papercraft Competition Results:

1st place: Scani, with "A contract on the Leshen*".
We're rewarding not only the artistic vision here, but also technical excellence, dynamic composition, and all the fine polishing. This could easily be a part of our official marketing assets for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt! Congratulations. You. Sir, are a winner - the statue of Geralt battling the mighty griffin will be shipped to you!

2nd place: Pixelion, with "Geralt defeats an Ice Giant". This is hands down (hands down, get it?) the most elaborate and time consuming entry we received in terms of preparation and staging. The photo's quality is excellent as well, and the scene as a whole makes a perfect job of telling an exciting story of bravery, hardship, and victory. An artbook for the artist!

3rd place: Piluso, with "7th Seal of The Wild Hunt". We've received quite a few interesting photos from this contestant, each with an original idea and showing considerable skill in terms of execution. But if it even was just this one photo, we would award it if only for the great idea and a popcultural reference that left us greatly impressed. We'll exchange your 7th seal for an original Wolf Head Medallion!

Congratulations to the winners! On top of the stated prizes, each one of you will also receive a The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt official t-shirt. Please send me (G-Doc) a private forum message with your shipping address and t-shirt size.

Now, for the runner-up prizes (in random order):

- R3gnier with "Geralt's final moments", for great emotional charge and very elaborate setup.

- Felixillion with "Unhappy Tree Fiend", for making us laugh a little bit too hard.

- drmet with "Does this dress make me look like a Leshen?", for making a nice, self-contained comic strip that belongs in Temeria Herald's funny pages.

- @precel (Twitter handle) with "Some Assembly Required", for wonderful memories of childhood paired with brilliant humor.

- Noircop with "A very Gory Scene", for the amount of work that went into putting together this well-executed (wink, wink) photo.

Each of the runner-up winners will receive a $9.99 voucher to use on GOG.com. Please PM me for your prize!

That's it! Thank you for participating, and once again - congratulations on all of those awesome photos!
