Topic: >>JOIN<< The BITCOIN FORUM METAVERSE Art Project with BTC Artist 1Dq - page 3. (Read 5865 times)

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.

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.

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.

This is (almost) it guys!

VISUAL UPDATE #17



The entire composition is coming very much alive with all the details




I have a small announcement to make about a change, that I need to explain.

The big BTC in the middle will (probably) not be gilded.
In fact, I'm thinking (an a good mate of mine also suggested) about not using gold on this canvas!

There are several reasons for that.
One is, the surface is too scattered and it probably wouldn't look right, meaning special, uplifted, or simply better.
The color that was meant to be close to orange, which has become symbolic for Bitcoin also wouldn't be that close with gold.
And there's also the compositional question of gold having its reflective texture, forcing the background to come forward, which can be fun, but here it might wreck the perception space.

I could still gild some other details, but I'm afraid it would just look weird and kitschy if they were scattered someplace.
Remember that from and angle the canvas texture usually becomes greyish and foggy, but the gold goes crazy light or dark and sticks out.
This is great if you want to expose something, but for a detail to jump out like that is a bit silly.

I know this is a bit late in the process to decide something like this, but painting the big BTC made me rethink this.


This is also the last call for comments and suggestions!
I am finishing the canvas in the next week so please let me know if there's anything else I need to focus on.

Don't worry though - there'll be another update before the actual finish.


Cheers!

Today I bring with me three shots of developing details.

VISUAL UPDATE #16



Here's the middle area with fresh titles:



Incoming bots



Left side with its shady characters and cleaning trash personnel at the bottom






That's it for me for today, I'll be back soon with more,

Cheers!

This is a very interesting idea and would probably make a lot of people satisfied.
Maybe go for a short OG list and a abbreviated local moderators list as well.

I think you should include those hardworking countries moderator In this forum making there forum interesting in the list so every country and language will be represented for there hard work that will make everyone know that local board also are being watched not minding there language or country and also appreciated for there contributions to the forum.

Thanks!

Not sure about how many, there's enough space to list plenty (up to 15), but I'd much rather list less that most people agree on.

I'm hoping to get several lists, add to those I already have and take the most mentioned.

Lookin' pretty cool 1Dq!

How many users are you trying to list? It looks like the original concept is spaced for ~10-14, I've been trying to think this through but want to make sure I'm not making it too long!

Wow painting for 2 to 5 hours a day shows how how much dedicated you are in art and your dedication was indeed worthy of the results we are seeing, all this painting are beautiful and very educating looking at it alone telling you about Bitcoin and how is going however I think you should include the number of years Bitcoin has been in existence in this beautiful art work it will help in knowing more about Bitcoin history as the number of  years Bitcoin has been in existence is part of Bitcoin history.

The timeline you provided is very much okay and I'm happy about how you follow it and yes you are very much correct when you said and I quote "the further I paint, the lighter the painting will become"
Things gets more better when we do it over and over again.
Your art work has already made a big impact to this forum and Bitcoin keep it up.

This is where we are before the home stretch.

VISUAL UPDATE #15


This is the complete canvas where everything is prepared for detailed finalizing.




And here's close-ups to its parts:

There's too much detail to mention here so I'll just focus on the most obvious.
Everything else has already been mentioned in previous posts.

Middle area:
A mass of bots doing everything from entering the world, talking, competing, spamming, moving around and lots more...
Above them is the Local area on left and Mining on right and big BTC with "15" above all.



Top left:
Dark character lurk here, figuring out their shady business, hacking, dealing stuff, stealing...



Top right:
This is mostly empty panel awaiting the artwork's codes and OG list



Bottom left:
Scrapyard of trash being removed in the corner, with Collectibles area offering BTC artifacts exposed on top.



Bottom right:
Satoshi, Sirius and Theymos operating and powering-up everything as small bots try to peek on their work.




Here we are, well into project's crucial PHASE #3, where the artwork is being created (almost) before your eyes! 

I'm happy to report that everything is still going as planned.
This makes me super happy, proud and thankful for all your generous help and participation!

I've been painting 2-5 hours per day to achieve this and will continue for the next couple of weeks.
Now we are doing the last steps needed for completion of this epic canvas!

Here's the timeline, that should work for us:

October
3.10. - This post
10-15 Final comments
15-20 Canvas finalization
20-24 Scanning the canvas
25-29 Print preparing and making test samples
30-31 Print photographing and post prep
November
1-3 New post with canvas and prints presentation and announcement of auctions
3-10 Auctions (or just selling) prints and canvas
10-15 sending packages
22 Celebration, members have prints and OG artwork at home.
 
In the next 2-3 weeks I'll be happy to receive you last comments and suggestions.
There's a lot of room left for small Easter eggs I can paint in!

The photos are still not very good, but I believe most of the motif is already obvious.
In case you aren't sure about anything feel free to ask!

One thing I'd like to state is that my style here is starting in the dark and moving towards light.
This means the further I paint, the lighter the painting will become.
It also kind of reminds me of Bitcoin's life - the longer it is around, the lighter we feel, right? 

Oh and the Big BTC in the middle is now facing a bit more towards us.
This way it will be even more recognizable at first glance!
It is also deliberately not completely full and seems like it's still constructing.
Also, the local area flags will have less radiant colors, when I put them into perspective.

Otherwise all titles, logos and symbols will start appearing with each visual update.
I'll continue updating you and try to do the best photos with the circumstances I have.


Will be back soon!

Cheers!

I think you forget to mention "lovesmayfamilis" in your list, that's also one of the notable members in the forum that has and still contributing to the growth of the community in his/her own special way. This user's notable contributions can't go unnoticed, so should be included in the above list, or wouldn't you agree with me?

I've been literally staring at the painting for as long as I can remember, it's indeed a magnificent work of art, and the fact that it's not even the real painting but yet looks like a masterpiece is just something else. I must commend the OP for an amazing work, because the painting is like nothing I've ever seen, I'm also really looking forward to the real painting.

Honestly speaking OP 1Dq I really think your art project are being coming worth more time been spent on I most confess, from your art work I think you are trying preach the forum to the world though your art work and I really appreciate you for that i give you a big thumbs for that.

Thank you for this amazing analysis joker_josue!

It will help a lot interpreting my artwork and thus helping people understand this forum.

Your final analysis should be exposed next to the artwork as the official key to help unlock it! 

Cheers!

I love this, you have done a great job, I love people like you because you think in a creative way, art is one thing that can tell a lot with just one work, Bitcoin has gotten to a point were it needs a beautiful art work like this in other to represent it very well, with this kind of art work all you need is a little explanation to a newbie because only seeing the art work he knows that Bitcoin has already spread in many countries and a lot of people are already investing on it and taking it seriously, he or she will know that Bitcoin has been here for some years now, seeing the art work will make him or her know that Bitcoin will even be more great in the future and will grow so high in price in a way people will stand and imagine, after viewing the art work he or she will know that investing on Bitcoin is the best option and that is why art work is more better because it explains more to people that writing.

The Bitcoin Metaverse Art by 1Dq Link Artist description: This board has not gotten enough credit for all it has contributed, developed, researched, educated and otherwise done for everybody it connects. I propose to make a visual representation of everything it means to us in the form of a big, detailed painting. It will serve as a monument in this time and can help people identify, glorify, connect and celebrate this place we are all co-creating every day. My Analysis: The artist wanted to work with this to transform the BitcoinTalk forum into a parallel and real world. What would this forum be like if it were a physical space somewhere in the Universe? This is what the artist wants the observer to imagine when they contemplate this work. He seeks to capture every moment of the day to day life of this forum. A busy society, with a lot of things happening at the same time, but all around one thing, Bitcoin. This is represented by the big B (the Bitcoin logo) in the center of the work, which seeks to use a bright color - orange, in contrast to the predominant color throughout the painting, dark blue. From this big B come lines of light blue, which we see originate from the character in the bottom right corner, Satoshi. Satoshi Nakamoto - the creator of Bitcoin - is the energy source of this entire parallel world. As we can see in the painting, through the lines that connect all the elements of the artistic work. We were able to observe that both the figures representing the various users of this forum, as well as the buildings, squares and stores in this world, need this energy to survive. The entire artistic composition is constructed in a way that takes us to the center of the work. The big B is the center of everything. Place where the artist uses a warm tone (orange) and a cold tone (light blue) to bring the viewer here. But this centralization of attention does not unbalance the composition. In the surrounding part, elements and colors are used, which force the viewer to also pay respective attention. Every time we look at each of the elements present in this work, our gaze ends up being directed back to the center. Despite this, we were able to feel total balance and harmony in the painting. On the left side, warmer color tones are used. On the right side, cooler color tones are used. This navigation between these color tones, with the strong light that comes from the middle of the composition, makes the work well balanced. Despite being a composition with many details, this balance between the colors used, as well as indirectly forcing the viewer to look at the center of the work, makes it light and not tiring. The viewer is always left with the expectation of looking for more details that will take them back to the big B. With all the details that the artist wanted to include in his work, all BitcoinTalk viewers will certainly feel represented in some way. Those who are not from this forum will feel the invitation that the artist makes, to be able to observe this entire universe from an external perspective. Yes, gateway, because the artist has the beautiful ability to put us at the gateway to Bitcoin. Note from the author of the analysis: I am neither an artist nor an art critic. But I studied art and I have always been an art fan, and I have been very involved in the artistic field. You can find out more about me here (text in Portuguese). My English is not the best, so if any of this analysis is not clear, I will be interested in clarifying.

There was one idea me and my friends had years back and we laughed over it months later one of my friend took much interest in that idea and convinced me on joining hands with him to make that idea a reality and that was how we made it a reality and we made history in my town.
You are so talented and a lot of people in this forum love's your art work even the top members in this forum and I believe some of them have not visited this thread to see the this wonderful art's you are creating if they do they will surely support that's one thing I believe all we have to do is make your work know in this forum.
When your art work is all over this forum some companies or campaign managers will sponsor  .
I believe in your creativity so much.
Art to the world 🌎.

VISUAL UPDATE #14


Working on the left side with its shady business.




Closeup on painting initial details.




My sketch of the fonts for the board titles in the empty panels.
These will probably be improvised slightly and might also vary from title to title.





In the upcoming days/weeks I'm continuing work on shapes and details.
Hopefully the canvas will be finished around the middle of October.

You can freely comment and suggest improvements and I'll take them into account.

I will continue accepting private suggestions for Easter egg details!

For now I'd like more answers on:

WHO ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT /ORIGINAL GANGSTER/POPULAR BTCTALK MEMBERS?
Satoshi Nakamoto, Sirius and Theymos are already present, but you can still list them.

I'll be back with the next update in a couple of days.


.....



Awesome, thanks!


Thank you sir.


That's a nice idea, but hard to implement without a good updating system on a digital platform.
I'd paint it in digitally or even on canvas if someone sponsors it haha.

It will be nice if you create an art work and then insert the name's of those people that are working very hard in making this forum a great one, then you will be reviewing it weekly or monthly by adding more names of those people that are beginning to work hard to make the forum create in one way or The other, I think it will encourage members of the forum to make an impact in this forum.
Everyone will imagine his or her name being in your great art work some person's will save it and it will be a great memory for him or her.
I think you should consider this idea it will be a great push for this forum.
