Topic: >>JOIN<< The BITCOIN FORUM METAVERSE Art Project with BTC Artist 1Dq - page 6. (Read 5486 times)

the adjustment of the 15th to come under the Bitcoin sign is a good suggestion that kinds of gives direction to viewers while having a look at the art. It's more like the arrangement is showing Bitcoin @ 15 although the 15 isn't a representation of Bitcoin but Bitcointalk which if you're looking from that angle it would still be better to represent it the way it was originally placed at the side.

For the representation of local board, I still stand on my initial ground that a simple design that's less combasome be made to house all the local board instead of placing them in a box like container like what you represent thier. It not like doing it that way wouldn't pass the intended message, but to make it more matured a simple globe 🌎 with the color code of the current local board can be used.

To even make it more colorful, if there is a way of drawing tiny maps of individual local board accross the art in a faint manner, it would be a perfect option or to draw a single square and tiny maps of the different local board could be inscribed in the art. It's All about being creative with a design that's less literal but just maturedly gives a good detail of the local board.

I think the idea of ​​doing something to cover all local guides is great.
Because in reality the forum is made up of all of them, and they continue to be a means of continuing to make the forum grow.

Furthermore, it would end up being unfair for some local tab not to be included in the painting. And on the other hand, placing all the flags on the local tabs would create even more noise in the painting, which would not be possible.

A more global solution would be interesting.

I don't know what you already have in mind, but here's a suggestion:
The Earth's globe, powered by Satoshi's energy, where the continents would have this color/energy.

Regarding the tabs, I thought of doing the following:



First, take the anniversary number "15 years" and move it under the Bitcoin symbol.

In the place where "15" was, we put the flags of the local tabs and the "Other languages" tab. From what I counted, there are 23 local tabs + Other languages.

In the space that is now empty, I could put the flags that best represent that language. In my case, for example, it is Portuguese. But there are two major speakers of this language, Portugal and Brazil. As a tiebreaker, the number of inhabitants can be used. But you can think of other criteria as well.

There is the report by @Rikafip about the local tabs and this can be explored too!

Can't wait to see the masterpiece that will be created by you, I believe you will deliver a great job, however one of the reasons we are here in this thread is to support in our own way by sharing our thoughts and ideas, so what ever you create we all will look at it and see if it's speaks want is need and if yes we celebrate and if it needs a little touch to make it perfect we also say it and that way you will create a magnificent art.
Art is powerful.

I'm giving the subject of representing local countries as well as the whole world a lot of time.

As there was a lot of positive incentive, I'm considering enlarging the chosen area on the painting as well as conceptually developing it.

I will make concept drawing of reworked "Local" as the main focus for the next visual update.

Now I see why the Art lover will said Art is the stored honey of the human life , I most confess this I was not really a lover of art work but honestly speaking this has really captured and inspired my heart well that aside, talking about the languages in addition to what @SuperBitMan was saying
It will be of great importance if all the languages are being all added to the great bitcoin art project so that people  all the world's can have the motivation of many and different language's in the forum working hand in hand together as one,to me I feel this art project will be more educational and will inspire people

Hmm, this is a powerful thought, but also an ambitious one.
I'll think about a visual solution to this, if I can find one.

And thank you very much for your kind words about my humble art. 

What I was trying to say is that since this forum is something everyone anywhere in the world can see and get involve in, there should be an art created to show that the forum is a place that accommodate different people and different languages.
For example if you see this art 🌎 you will know is an art that represent the world in general and I believe you can create an art for the forum that will symbolize different nations and different languages in one something that as soon as one sees it, it will tell you that the forum accommodates different nations of the world and also languages.

I have been going through all your works and I most confess you are a genius, your single art works explain a lot of things and since art passes a message more better I so much love it, a single art work can pass a single message to different people that speaks different languages.
Art is powerful.

Thank you!



Thank you, sir.
I'll try to include another egg or two 



Cool ideas, I'm definitely adding the hodl guy somehow.
As for the Theymos Reddit magic money thing, that could be another one of those slight hints a bit hidden maybe.



Great, I'll probably another one or two before finishing!



Hmm, maybe we could somehow combine both ideas into one visual solution?



Yes, another good idea.
Since I'm into "painterly coding" what if I made a cryptic universal code that would represent all countries, but have some extra exposed?
I'm not sure how exactly I'd do that yet, but I've some conceptual references to work with.



Can you please expand on that?
It might be in the same wavelength I just tuned in just above this reply 

I'm just seeing this now and I went through everything and I most say you need a very good work, I never believed someone in this forum will do such a beautiful job, you have made this forum to be highly represented very well.
Art is very important when it comes to passing out a message using art works makes it more valuable and understandable, I love what you are doing and how you are going about it.
There should be a flag that we represent this forum as one with many countries and languages, a flag that tells that as soon as one sees it.
I think a flag like that will make the forum more unique.

like the way the Olympics used connections of five interlaced rings to represent the bond and connection of athletes accross the five continents, a combination as that could be used with color codes of all the local boards on the forum proper mated in it. An alternative option could be to mesh out an area that's spherical in nature like a world globe and which can contain the color code of the flags of the different local board on the forum or something that representa it well. I believe 1Dq knows how to better represent this idea.

Thank you very much, everything is clearer now! I will be waiting for the whole painting process! As you said, we will be able to have a better idea of ​​what may or may not be wrong!


I can't think of a fairer way to list the countries. Since the anniversary is 15 years, let's remember the first ones who created the entire foundation for the other languages.

instead of more of individual flags (which depending on resolution/size could be problematic) is there any other way to indicate this is a world wide forum supporting different languages and locals?

I don't know if this will be too much to ask but I'm considering a scenario where instead of representing the flags of just the first ten active local board on the forum, you include other local boards even though it's going to be a bit tiny. The essence will be to paint an all inclusive portrait where some aspect of the forum won't feel like they are left out. If we have represented newbies in the portrait then it's necessary that all local board gets a sense of visibility in the art. The remaining ones aren't that much, they could be added close to the meta section that's directly opposite the first ten flag.

Apart from that observation, every other detail looks okay and well represented in my observation.

As always, great work you've got here 1Dq. I can't really add much than others have before me but would it make sense to include either of these ideas:

• Hodling post mention[1] - Perhaps by not directly linking the post but trying to draw a little guy almost falling in the bitcoin symbol, but grabbing it to avoid falling? Would it be too much?
• Theymos post that led to the submission of "Magic Internet Money"[2] - Granted this may be a bit hard to justify considering that it was on Reddit, but it did help Bitcoin get more traction.

Looking forward for the final result, keep it up!

Love the piece. It feels representative of the forum and future of bitcoin and the world. love seeing the forum people represented. Nice work. look forward to seeing the finished product. I also love that every time you look you see something new. so if i could suggest anything it would be, MORE EASTER EGGS

I think the space where Satoshi is located is very good. In fact, the whole picture is incredible, congratulations.

At the moment I can't indicate anything that I might need to change, I think everything is fine.
You even chose the Portuguese flag. 

Incredible work!

Your request is super valid, so I did one of these again:






Definitely. I'll go step by step so you'll be in on the whole process.

This will also make it easier for you to point out things that need correcting while I'm still able to overpaint them.

Hello 1Dq, I wanted to talk about a few things. The art so far is representing the entire forum very well! I'm loving the art, congratulations.

Another thing is that whenever you make a change, you could indicate it with an arrow, just like last time, because since the art is taking on large proportions and more things are always being added, it would be interesting to have an indication so that we can quickly visualize it and also tell you if it's correct, if it was painted/drawn wrong.

Another thing would be the possibility of you showing the painting process, even if it's just a quick one. I think it would be interesting to see the digital transformation.

Thanks!

THE CODE

I designed the code for our first Collective artwork project Bitcollector.
It is designed to connect all my/our BTCtalk artworks into its unique artchain.


Bitcollector's code:




This is how the first code was constructed from top to bottom :

BTC-TLK 001/1 (Bitcoin Talk, project 001 and /1 meaning it is the single one or first of the series.)
1Dq Eld kro... (First three characters of members of the current artwork project.)
Thumbnail image in bottom left of the previous artwork (Pie contest 2024).
Date of project/s beginning and end. (For this one it's pretty epic in its span of 4 and a half years)
Thumbnail version of current artwork in bottom right (used for reference in the next artwork)

Bitcoin Forum Metaverse will be the second artwork to have this code.


I intend to leave a lot of details on the concept art in the sketch form.
There's no real need to paint everything as a proxy for the canvas version as long as you trust that I'll do my best on it.
If there's questions about the way anything will be painted, I'll of course address that.
And in the process of exploring the final style for the canvas, I might paint some things in new ways.

.....

Instead of questions I have one request today:

Please check and let me know if I missed something or painted it incorrectly.


As we're slowly moving into the brainstorming wrap-up, I want everything verified.

It'll make it easier for me to focus on the style and painterly execution on the canvas that follows soon.

Cheers!
