An @littleswagworld art education thread for the midcurve manlets saying it’s “just ai” and assume it’s low effort.
1️⃣ Bosch made a whole ass regular generative pfp collection BEFORE running it through stable diffusion to create the final art
matto (@matto__matto): I post for my fallen trench soldiers, the realest one's who never minted out 🙏
2️⃣ this is why the silhouette, traits and backgrounds are all visually consistent in shape and color if not fine detail. Think of it like 3333 generative stencils that were then sprayed with magic ai paint slime
3️⃣ this was done using Stable Diffusion, the most flexible and controllable open source diffusion image generator using its control net feature. Remember the ai spirals on the timeline? Same tech.
4️⃣ @supermetalx made a thread talking about the process
supermetal $swag bosch (@supermetalx): since @littleswagworld dropping soon i wanted to give a rundown and show how @turtletimezone @0x901112a @autotunefriends and myself created this beast of a nft project 🪙😼💴🥱🩶 $swag
5️⃣ after generating the core characters then there is a layering pass that adds the hand accessories and little mons that is not done with ai, it’s done in a traditional layered pfp style
(Look at this drippy lil guy 🥹)
6️⃣ culturally, the collection is filled with deep references to underground fashion, video games cutting edge rap culture and the strange and beautiful world of avant nfts post milady
It’s an iceberg for those who can read it
7️⃣ finally, it’s a product of @supermetalx’s continuing artistic process and development which has gone across multiple projects exploring game aesthetics, ceramic making, fashion, ai and meme culture.
8️⃣ the reason the $swag coin and @littleswagworld charts have a huge spike in them is because the official Instagram handle recently made a post of @supermetalx ceramic work (http://supermetalmons.com) and set off a buying frenzy
The thread reached a whole audience outside of crypto on the strength of Boschs art, not a brand activation, not an influencer pump, not a “collab”
9️⃣ investment thesis?
☑️ This is a highly creative pfp made by a serious fine artist ☑️ being a drippy lil guy on the timeline is fun as hell ☑️ if Solana pfp szn is here, there is nothing better ☑️ the avant nft memeplex post milady 9/11 needs swag ☑️swag
And finally the fair launched sol coin and pfp that is influencer and vc free trench first, bottom up is real as hell and we are coming to take over this chain
And that’s on $swag 🫡
Trenches can’t hold us fam we’re going above the clouds
We’ll pray for them and hope they catch up someday
Thank you for everything you do fam. We’re out here fr 🫡
😮 drip too hard
Ty we have to help to swag the unswagged
