Few things: 1. ‘Art’ Only (think of it as a collectible that’s it) 2. No Discord 3. No mint date, price or supply, yet 4. No ‘alpha group’ WL 5. No guaranteed WL for previous stuff 6. Still might not happen at all 🤝

WL is fully allocated currently. But I will be contacting some folks in the coming days to go on a FCFS wallet list should anyone neglect to claim their mint spot.

10/ The final outcome is something I am proud to put my name by and have live on the blockchain. As for further collections/pieces, I've got far more ideas than I have time and will always continue to produce comic/meme content every day, for free shared on @boldleonidas . 🫡

9/ So in truth a much larger scale collection would have been significantly less work. In the end I had just over 2,000 layers to produce the 100 final images. As I started to refine and hone in, I felt like I'd made the right choice, but kept working to make each one feel more

@kidseeghost_sol @MagicEden I see these very much as a singular piece, an experiment into pixels and by no means the end of my journey as a creator on the blockchain. I originally did envisage it as a 1,000 piece set. But decided I would like more control over each outcome. In all honesty doing 100 1/1 is

3/ After some concept drawings, in March I began chatting to a number of large ordinals holders, and believers including @udiWertheimer . I was in a huge number of 1 on 1 chats sharing early concepts of what I thought I could bring to the Ordinal table.

1/ The idea began back on 1st January 2024, when I drew this as my 'Daily Comic' reflecting on the rise of @nodemonkes within the Ordinal space. My caption was something like 'I didn't get a Node Monkes honorary, so I made my own'.

8/ In a typical 10k collection, e.g. @BoredApeYC and the likes, we have around 200 traits. However in a 100 1/1 collection like this I have the equivalent of about 500 traits, as each one has typically around 5 unique traits + the shading that is unique to each one. I took

7/ Initially I saw this as a 1k - 10k collection, and I started the Twitter/X page with that in mind. But I didn't like the lack of control that gave me in each output. I drew well over 300 traits before deciding to go to a 100 1/1 collection.
