HumbleDrawing´s 2021 year in NFT´s
2021 is coming to an end now, and what a year it´s been both good and bad!
This will be our first ever article, and will be about our endeavors into NFT´s this past year.
The year started off pretty horrible for us with the loss of a close family member, that´s never very fun..
Not long after this someone mentioned NFT´s and WAX, and we were gifted a few NFT´s. From there we started looking more into the in´s and out´s of minting our own art, which was very uncharted territory for us. Lets just say it took a bit of effort to get a hang of it all, and we probably made all the rookie mistakes there is, but that´s fine, we learned a lot from it!
We minted our very first NFT back in mid March, honestly not expecting anything to sell, or anyone to even notice us.
We were wrong, and people actually went and bought our drops!♥️
We continued to mint our art on AtomicHub dropping fairly regularly, and in the summer we released our first pack sale. The Fragments Packs. These were the packs filled with Fragments that would be blended into the final pieces. Again we did this not expecting anyone to care only to once more be proven wrong! We released a large and a small pack, with the large one selling out in under 4 hours, we were speechless! This just fueled us to keep moving forward and keep creating and coming up with new things.
A lot of people asked us from the start if our paintings would come with the NFT in some way, we did not do that, most of the first paintings are hanging in the Humble HQ and have a great deal of sentimental value.
We did however end up making the HumbleHouses into redeemable Lithophanes, and plan to continue with the rest of the series too. As of writing this, mint #5 of HumbleHouses No. 2 is printing full speed ahead and will be our first drop in the new year. We initially planned to drop them before, but due to some issues in printing, and wanting to better the quality of the Lithophanes, it ended up taking longer than expected to finish them all.
Right now there´s sitting a Lithophane in Ireland, and one in the U.S, which to us is pretty damn cool to think about!
With this all said, going forward we will make quite a bit more redeemable things. There will certainly be Lithophanes, there will be other things too, handmade claimable 1/1´s, but more info on this will surface in the new year.
This was also a year of many firsts for us. We did our first ever interview with @Crackers832 which was great, even if he had to chase after us for a bit lol. It was also the first time ever that one of us went live anywhere, with Kenneth going on the NFT Circus hosted by @CaldwellCreativ and the gang. This will not be the last time we do this for sure!
Well, and now our first ever read.cash article too!
At the time of writing this there is:
9650 NFT´s minted total on AtomicHub
Across over 4600 wallets
Over 1800 of you have followed our Twitter
We had never ever foreseen that would happen, to us this is so massive!
Lastly we just want to take a moment to say THANK YOU!
Thank you to all of our collectors and supporters!
Thank you to all the awesome creators we have met!
And thank you to all the frens we have made along the road!
We are truly grateful and humbled by this!
We will continue our journey in NFT´s in 2022, both as creators and collectors. And we will continue minting on AtomicHub, but also be more present on OpenSea as well!
Hopefully we will see you all there.
Happy New Year´s to all of you, from us at HumbleDrawing´s
