There will be an updated collection of fan-favorite Adversary Modes every week, so you’ll have plenty of chances to put our Adversary Mode Game Tips into practice.
#illgottengains1 SNAPMATIC WINNERS
Photographers were quick off the mark in taking imaginative Snaps inspired by and featuring content from the ILL-GOTTEN GAINS Update: Part One. Having scoured Social Club for the best, we’re pleased to present our favorite selections here, each of whom receives GTA$1M. We’ve also included a few honorable mentions – great work to all for doing such a bang up job showing off all their spoils, including rides, weapon skins and everything in between.
Wings have been earned with this sweet bullet art / car pr0n from bee1108.fellow of the always prolific GTAPhotographers.
Snapmatic Art‘s quaid86 may have been around the world on the new Luxor Deluxe but by the looks of that eponymous “Red Carpet” of blood, he’s the one doing the player hating. Extra style points for rocking the fresh leather fur.
Hell bent in leather. missnxkolette knows it’s all in the details as she perfectly captures her pistol’s Yusuf Amir Luxury Finish – getting the light to shine on her “.50” piece just right.
We recently recognized zebfar‘s talent for cinematic adaptations and now we are proud to welcome zeb to the illustrious hall of Snapmatic contest winners for this brilliant entry, “Gulls.” Using the magic of the Creator, zebfar captured this flock ofseagulls Stirlings in repose atop Mount Gordo.
There’s something to be said for good accessorizing. In “I’LLGOTTENKITTY,” chaoszake coordinates the leopard pants with the Cheetah-skinned Windsor.
Honorable Mentions…
- Heavy is the head that wears the crown. Snapography‘s eddieltu took a photo portrait ofsilverfox1 having a laid-back smoke aboard the Luxor Deluxe.
- lvc0034 captures the sun going down on his Benefactor Sterling GT in this beautiful shot with the LS skyline in the backdrop.
- Killa_Cali of Tha Gallery snaps mamasnuggles walking away from her Virgo like a total bad ass in “Classy Lady Virgo“.
- With the help of trigger man GeneralTriple777 and wing support from FrenchChemical, I_Miss_U_Liza displays just a few of the Ill-Gotten spoils in “Artwork 1“.
- banjabi gets up close and personal with the detailing on sadness78320‘s piece in CAL.50.
