Battle Gems Contest Winners

Amazing Fan Art lands a Critical Hit on the Artix Team!

The Battle Gems Fan Art Contest was a HUGE success! Undoubtedly our best contest ever!

Over 1,000 entries were submitted to @AQWContests, and it was an incredibly difficult quest to narrow down our favorites (because there were sooooo many awesome submissions)! But, alas, this was a contest, and as such, we had to select the best-of-the-best.

Aaaaaaand here they are!

Grand Prize Winner

Congratulations, Jultane_x! You won the 1st Place Grand Prize!

Jultane_x will be awarded with an exclusive Battle Gems Battle Pet for AQWorlds, the 2^nd and 3^rd place Pets, and a bonus of 1,000 AdventureCoins! Keep up the FANTASTIC work, Jultane_x!

Our wonderful Mods & Volunteer Staff Members created a DropBox where all the winners are posted—including runner-ups and special categories! Check out the full list with full sized photos here! 

(Note: we are working on a way to showcase all the photos, but we need your help! Should we make a YouTube video? Create a new Board on Pinterest? Add them to Facebook? Tweet your suggestions to @BeleenAE or @AQWContest!)
