You have done a great job on the art work and I don't think there's nothing to be done anymore, when you start this great art work you always accept our opinion and you act on it too, this has been one thing I love about you and this attitude of yours has really helped you to achieve this beautiful art.
At this time this art work is complete and is beautiful this way if you keep touching it you may spoil the beauty all you need to do now is create another art work if is possible as time goes on your art work will be used by many people and companies so creating more is not a bad idea.

Awesome, as expected from the fine gentleman behind this detail of the Metaverse: 
I had already seen it... but I thought it best not to comment.
Thank you for this freebie. I'm here to help in any way I can.

I'll start marking them from 1... and make several print runs (a bit too costly for me to print all 100 in the start) until all 100 are sold.
If you need anything related to printing, you can talk to me and I might be able to provide some kind of support (at least in Europe).
What do you suggested would be the best method of uploading a high-res image on BTCtalk for anyone to download for free?
As promised in the very beginning of the project, this is a project by the community for the community and so this should also be an integral part of the endgame!

If you want I can put this directly on TalkImg.
Send a DM and we'll talk about it.
Awesome, as expected from the fine gentleman behind this detail of the Metaverse:
It was a great job, I think a larger canvas (41x51cm) so that we can have the maximum details would be ideal! Regarding the upload mode, I believe our friend @joker_josue can help with that!
In addition, it would be nice to add the year to make it more memorable and for me the "THE" is not necessary in this case. Finally, I thank you for the tribute and I am very happy to have contributed with so much!

Cool, I'll try how adding the date + 15 years might look.

Thank you for your kind words everybody!
It's congratulations to all of us together, as I couldn't possibly have done this on my own!
This is how many of us (45!!) participated in this project:
Alright, back to business.
I made test prints in two sizes to get a better feel of how the details come out.
One was a slightly larger A3 and the other in the same size as the canvas (60x80cm, 22,6″x31,4″)
This is how they all look together:
Besides a couple of tweaks here and there in the area of detail and hues, they both actually look pretty good, but also aren't ideal.
The smaller one is be a bit too condensed, and all the detail kinda melds together from afar.
The larger on the other hand is almost perfect, but is a bit out of the standard sizes for both US and EU (where most of us live and buy frames).
So I did a bit more thinking and research and came up with one size that will probably be perfect for everybody.
The new print size is 20"x24" or 41x51cm, which fits perfectly into standard US frames, and will probably also fit EU frames, but in worst case, it will just need a bit of trimming of the edge.
This size will expose all details while keeping the entire image a comfortable fit for everybody.
I intend to make a new test first thing Monday morning.
Please let me know if you agree with this size or if you have your own suggestions and wishes for your wall!
The next topic is presentation.
I put a slim black frame around the image which gave me the possibility to add its title at the bottom.
This is how it came out (note it's a test, not the final version image):
It also solves the problem of the scaling, because the print is slightly wider than the canvas and leaves a bit of extra space on top/bottom.
Should I also add the year and/or something else?
And should there be a "THE" in the beginning of the title?
The last thing today is how I planned to number the limited run prints.
Near the artwork code is the empty [ ]/100 bracket where each print will get its consecutive number handwritten with brush.
I'll start marking them from 1... and make several print runs (a bit too costly for me to print all 100 in the start) until all 100 are sold.
This will make all prints unique and even more interesting as collectible items for this years Anniversary!
Oh and while we're focused on the code, you might notice the abbreviated names of the top 20 most deserved members of this project.
They were chosen by system of how much merit they received in the threads, how many posts they made, the DM's I received and wether they created new threads for the project in local boards.
I hope I didn't leave something out, but I tried to be very meticulous.
Last thing today is another question.

Heya Bitcoin Forum Metaverse Art Project members!
Today I'm here with the final update, bringing you the (rough) scanned version of the finished canvas.
You'll finally understand my frustrations about those bad photos...
VISUAL UPDATE #19
The Bitcoin Forum Metaverse, 2024, Acrylics on Canvas, 60x80cm, 22,6″x31,4″
I'm very much satisfied and hyped about what we've accomplished here!
And I'm already busy organizing test prints of the same size as the canvas.
The digital scan will also get a couple of additional tweaks here and there to make it as perfect as possible.
I'll be back with photos of the print/prints as soon as I get them.
Cheers!

Simply incredible! You are a great artist, congratulations!
I hope that in the offline world, it will also be recognized as such.
Do you think you're ready to do "my analysis", or should I wait until another update appears?

Let's wait with the analysis until it's completely finished and I upload the scanned version, which will be much clearer.
Congratulations 1Dq, you are a very good artist. You managed to convey the entire idea of the forum in a painting and all this in a short time. Also, it's great to go back to the beginning of the thread and see all the updates and changes and see that everyone contributed!
Again, congratulations. Everything is perfect!

Today I bring you the (probably) final visual update!
VISUAL UPDATE #18
All but the finishing details (OG list + artwork codes) have been included.
This is the entire canvas
And here its sections up close
Almost everything is done, phew...
...except three things!
The List of very important members on the right will soon be added and I've decided to slightly scramble the names.
As this place is a product of communal work and it will also look a bit more fun that way.
The second thing is painting in two codes.
The more important one is the artwork code that will include a list of most deserved members of this project.
The other one is a connection to the 10th anniversary artwork I did 5 years ago and possible 20th anniversary artwork following in another 5.
And the third thing is any useful direction you provide that still pops up.
Recently I've had a lot of your trust and little comments guiding me along.
Speaking of comments, this is your last chance!
FINAL CALL FOR COMMENTS ON THIS CANVAS!
You can also still send me ideas for Easter eggs!
I intend on finishing the canvas by the end of this week, but will have a two day hiatus, so if you have any last thoughts please share them!
Also, just one month to the anniversary!!
Cheers!

You are a very wonderful artist and I really love this work, you did a great job however the BTC color is not a symbol of Bitcoin the color should be orange color and not gold something like this will be more better and try making is clean.
About the BTC being scattered I don't think it is just remove the gold color and replace it with orange I think it will be more better and clean and when someone sees it without explaining anything to the person the person will know this art work is about Bitcoin.

The current yellow serves as foundation for the planned orange!
So it will look a bit more similar to the above image that is indeed very recognizable.
1Dq don't you think you need to include the name of Bitcoin originator, for me I think you should include it in this beautiful art work since he is the one that created Bitcoin, you included the year Bitcoin was created or started which is very important I think you should just write the name of the creator of Bitcoin under the 2009, the idea is that without him there will be nothing called Bitcoin and so his name which is Satoshi Nakamoto should come before the 2009 and the rest years which you have written, when it is done like that anyone who looks at it will know that he is the originator of Bitcoin, this art work is about Bitcoin and a lot of details about Bitcoin is already included on it so it will be good the name of it's creator be included.
October 18, 2024, 08:35:43 AM
And it has incredible details! It's beautiful.
I think you did an excellent job portraying the forum on Satoshi's PC screen. Due to the size of the painting, and being in painting, it is not easy to create this level of detail. Congratulations.

Thank you sir!
For me, there is no problem with the gold, it would be something more eye-catching, but I don't think it would be something so important that it would be crucially necessary for the painting. But if you say it will look better without the gold, that's fine with me! Let's let the artist work.
Alright!
