My Cancelled NFT Project On SmartBCH: Civilized Cyclops
Months ago, I was about to publish my own NFT Project called Civilized Cyclops, but I abruptly postponed it due to technical issues and other factors. In fact, all of the Metadata, future plans, and the generated arts of 10,000 were ready at the time, but I believe there is a specific time for me to see my arts on the smartbch chain soon and have my own contract. I'm still hoping for it.
(Anyway, thank you for Sir Jomar (CEO of Paytaca BCH Wallet ) and Sir ShadowKite (Cteator of Rat NFTs)for the guide and help when I was about to drop it on SmartBCH but still not pursued due to huge factors)
Because I won't be able to publish them on smartbch, I'll introduce them and share some of the ideas that inspired this collection of mine.
Civilized Cyclops: What are they?
Civilized cyclops is a collection of 10,000 generated images created from the almost 100 hand-drawn parts. The collection was inspired from the Non Fungible Token (NFT) project on smartbch Ape Club NFTs. In fact, the size of the canva and backgrounds ideas are all inspired from it. See the screenshot above. Though the Civilized Cyclops is not the same concept as APE CLUB Nft when it comes to the arts and design, they were still the same when it comes to network to live on which is the smartbch.
Civilized Cyclops collection also comes with rarities just like the other NFTs. They were divided into common, rare and the epic which is the rarest among them. It has also different kind of characters with different species to show their differences. Every parts including background has different rarities that can be store on their metadata file during generation phase.
Creation of Raw Parts
The image above is where all the parts of each Civilized Cyclops are stored. Maybe you might ask why they are separated. I'm gonna explain that in my next article and of course, NFT creators are already know about this one .
Civilized Cyclops: Samples Parts and Rarities
Background
Neon city background is the rare type of background of the Civilized Cyclops. The background is inspired from the word civilize or civilization that usually represented by cities.
Body: Bitcoin Cash (Common)
One of the common body of a Civilized Cyclops is the Bitcoin Cash. The BCH body has also the purple version of it. The body is not too common but not too rare.
Cloth: Mummy (rare)
The rare cloth of a civilized cyclops. This is one of my favourite too the time that when I drew each of them. This cloth is also partnered with the same design for mask with blood effects.
Eye: Bitcoin Cash
Honestly my favourite eye among the other 11 eyes. The eye is themed with Bitcoin Cash and its so nice to see if you added them to the body and all of the other parts. The generated cyclops using with this eye is insanely beautiful.
The parts shown above are just few of them. This article will go to 20 minutes read I guess if I included them all. Well atleast, I've shown the some other parts and of course, to see is to believe as what they have said.
The screenshot below shows you the actual generated images using all the drawn parts including the parts above.
Here is the example of a Cyclops having a Bitcoin Cash eye, Bitcoin Cash body, Normal cloth and background, normal hair and not so rare mouth.
Tokenization
The plan was the Civilized Cyclops will have a token called Cycoin(CC) that is supposed to be for the important purposes such as rewarding, token to buy CCs and some others just like how other NFT projects are created. Launching a NFT project is not easy, just look at how other projects in the network turned into scam Lol.. A good thing for CC Collection too and myself for not pushing it.
For now, I just realized that instead of publishing them to smartbch , I will just turn them into wallpaper or profile picture on my social media platforms haha Xd. Making NFTs are enjoyable things to do. You can acquire new knowledge and how does project on crypto networks are works. Just keep keep on exploring.
Here is the Game
If you want to have 1 of the 10,000 generated images, please do comment any number 2-1000 and I will give you the corresponding image for that number. You will have it without any copy from other people. Come on, give it a try. This is image only, not a NFTs so better not put your smartbch address.
To bad you are not launching, would have loved to see it on SmartBCH. As for a number, let's go with 666 ;)
