What a crazy NFT week it was. 😲 Such moments are calling for iconic imagery. In the concept of the cover, we have unprecedentedly mixed the topics. The formula is simple: APE(Ceasar) + PUNK + BANKSY = ultimate result.
The base of our ape character is Ceasar from the Planet of Apes series symbolizing the King element as BTC ATH happened again. The piercing brings him to the desired punk feel. The ape is then varied with "Attributes" to identify the concrete punk.
We plan to have bandana ape punk only as we were brainstorming on Thursday. The next day happened another record-breaking sale so the fedora ape punk stepped in. He looks pretty badass, right? Saturday's fake Banksy events directed the street art style for the piece. The creation is truly orchestrated by the NFT history as it flows.
This artwork is pure Photoshop magic. I have developed a "Banksy" filter you can apply to anything. (with fine lightness tuning etc.). The animation is really modest as the picture is strong enough even static. The master chef's seasoning is the addition of a person passing by to give the street art a majestic scale. Did you notice my graffiti tag btw?
