26 days ago I concluded a NFT competition to help me choose my first NFT. It was great fun and one of the result summaries looked like this
Out if this came a very interesting offer by @trostparadox to commission an art piece off the results (also @trostparadox this took so long to do I am definitely not holding you to this!)
Now this was hard normally I just start drawing and go from there, not have a end point in mind. Also I really wanted to stick to the brief as close as possible.
So the first thing I saw was a really weird bird and I could not get it out of my head. So looks like we are drawing a bird! Also I want to tie this back into hive so lets say its droping of HIVE and off we go!
Ok so I used the lines as a guide and started blocking in some colors
Then I then removed the guide and started working working working. The beak had to be huge, the wing sit odd but we did get there!
Here it is with the guide
And the final image, it was a bit flat so i tried to outline a bit and add some clouds
So the following voters:
1 @quinnertronics 1 20
2 @thekittygirl 10 18 20 27 2 1 7
3 @morenow 5 18 23
4 @trostparadox 27 10 24 11
5 @regenerette 15 27 30
6 @thatgermandude 6 11
7 @mondoshawan 23 16 12 10 4

11 @madstacks 22
12 @fireguardian 2 30
13 @nineclaws 2 4 10 11 18 26 28
Now have a new NFT!
I saw the voting graph as just random lines, at most a leaf from a tree, but you as a good artist see much more than that. The bird looked great, I've told you before but you are talented.
Thank you very much for your art.
Your welcome!
So glad you like it:)
The artwork is really nice how I wish I was among the voters lol

Awesome piece of community-inspired artwork! I have sent your commission.
I knew you would do something great with this (and you did not disappoint).
That was a lot of fun! Thanks for accepting the challenge.
Thanks for that l, it was really late so really would have been fine if you hadn't! Glad you liked it and thanks for the commission!
Thank you @failingforwards, very kind of you! Really well done, beautiful use of colour and linear lines. I looked at what you started with and thought, what is he going to create starting with those lines 🤔. When I saw the completed image I was impressed.
Glad you liked it but trostparadox commissioned it for you all:)
Yes, quite right, thanks to @trostparadox for commissioning you and thanks to you for the creation 😃
