Win official Witcher jigsaw puzzles and wolf head medallions!

We have a couple more gifts to hand out before our 5th birthday celebration comes to an end. For starters, just to spoil you all, we're giving away a free copy of The Witcher: Enhanced Edition with every purchase on GOG.com, until Thursday, October 17 at 9:59 AM GMT. If you haven't had the chance yet to meet Geralt of Rivia, the white-haired monster slayer, this is your most affordable ticket to the Witcherverse. That's not all, however. CD Projekt RED was kind enough to share some official Witcher merchandise with us, and we want to give it all away to you, dear users! But, as you may have expected, this does not come without a challenge.

Are you good with pixel-art? This competition is perfect for you! We want to see your Witcher-related pixel-art. Be it scenes, character's, classic 2D or isometric, 8-bit or 16-bit palette, invented game screen-shot mock-ups--it's up to you. There are two important rules: your image needs to be up-scaled x2 (that means 2x2 pixels) after it's done, so it can be viewed without too much squinting, and the resulting up-scaled image must be no larger than 600x600 pixels in size. Apart from that, it's all you and your creativity!

The two top submissions win the official Witcher beautiful jigsaw puzzles, and a code for $9.99 GOG.com game. Three runner-ups get Witcher wolf-head medallions and a $5.99 GOG.com game. You have time until Monday, October 14, at 9:59AM GMT to submit your work in the forum thread below. Good luck, and have fun!

Notice: You retain rights to your submitted work, but by entering the compo you grant us the right to present your submission on our site and social media channels (with all due credit, of course).

G-Doc: A little late to the party, I'm afraid. Too bad, as this is one of the nicest entries. I can't allow you to enter the main contest, but some kind of consolation prize might happen for you, if The Enigmatic T agrees.

No more entries beyond this point, please.
I thought we had until 9:59AM today? Hmmmm.... Oh well! :)

>>LOL I know GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time... but I still assumed that it stood for General Mountain Time for some reason... 10AM (General Mountain Time) is still 5 hours away! HAHA!

That's 9.59AM GMT. That's the timezone we refer to in most of our infos. I know this might be confusing to some of you, but we have to stick to one timezone and we chose this one. Sorry you've missed the deadline. You're more than welcome to post your work anyway, but I won't be able to award it anything, I'm afraid.

LOL. Yeah, I actually know what GMT is - but... I'm a fool... so I messed it all up. :) Anyway, It's all in good fun... Good luck to all the contestants!

Wow! That's GREAT! That's true pixel art! I've never tried to do it before - so mine was just kind of a REALLY low resolution drawing... LOL. Anyway... Good luck to you! I'd be surprised if didn't win something. How long did it take you?

Haha thanks. I merely dabble in the ways of pixel art and I should really study it more but how long? Hmm, well, I think about 10-14 hours of work. I took some breaks and such inbetween but yeah, took like all day plus a bit into the morning. I'm not a fast pixel artist haha. Also I did some tweaking with placements of the UI components and stuff like that, so that took some time!

Small comment on the forum, since it is possible for users to have a different posts/page setting, it's best to refer by post number instead of thread page. I do have it set to 50, so this thread only has 3 pages (soon to be 4).

Nice drawing btw :)
