After slaving away for over a year, the fine folks at Polycount have unveiled their new community site for video game artwork. Given that a year is roughly the time it takes for us to post a blog update, you can imagine our immediate and deeply-held suspicion that they probably used magic. Possibly black magic. I won't bore you with the details, but long story short, we immediately raced to their office, armed with holy water and fire, to confront them. Several police officers informed us that we were mistaken, and then made us apologize to the wizards, and then made us stop calling them wizards.
At any rate, to help celebrate, we've teamed up with them to run
The Polycount Pack contest. Whether you're a modeler who's submitted work to the Contribute page already, or a beginner looking for a great community to give you useful feedback, this contest is the thing you're looking for.
And guess what: If you're not a modeler, you're even luckier. Why? You don't have to do anything at all, and you'll still be getting free content from suckers your fellow players.
Remember, if you see someone carrying one of these "self-made" items, make sure you thank them for their work! (But then, of course, shoot them.)
