CS:GO Update CS:GO Weapon Finish Contest Winners

The Polycount CS:GO Weapon Finish Contest wrapped up last week. While the contest was active the Polycount community submitted more than 500 entries to the CS:GO workshop! Since there were so many high-quality submissions, we decided to select three winners whose work will be featured in an upcoming weapon case.

Here are the three winners followed by the honorable mentions.

​

​

Made by Andy and DryDoctor egg, Desolate Space will be their first finish featured in CS:GO. This design applies a custom illustration to the M4A4 body. The level of detail and saturation make the design a great fit for a Classified rarity.

​

One of the categories we were looking for was a Restricted rarity AWP. This design by apёl7 wears its inspirations on its sleeve but manages to be understated making it a great fit for a Restricted rarity finish. This will be apёl7’s first finish to be featured in CS:GO.

​

G-99Factory’s finish takes the cues from some iconic 70’s and 80’s sci-fi designs and applies them to the PP-Bizon with fantastic attention to detail. The work is nuanced yet not overwhelming. Along with the limited color palette it really fulfills our call for a Mil-Spec rarity finish.

​

It really was a difficult task to pick the winners from such a wide variety of fantastic work. Ultimately we settled on three finishes that we felt beautifully executed a 70’s and 80’s sci-fi themed design that matched the specified rarity tier for one of the assigned weapons.

There were many great finishes generated by this contest so don’t be surprised if a few more of them end up in a future weapon case.
