Just a heads up to anyone that might have been waiting to take advantage of this, discount runs out tomorrow.

Just take it down. It is not final, it is not complete, some of the people you have credited don't even have their portions on the piece because it is NOT FINISHED. This is actually pissing me off now.

edit: How does it even work when you commission something and they go ahead and release it before you can even bring it to light?

This whole scenario would be different had it not been leaked through his portfolio.
I have asked each artist that contributed to the original ZimNote for their blessing to use each of their portions. The actual art came together faster than I thought and I am currently waiting on one artist for their go-ahead. Nothing will be printed until I have their approval.

I myself was waiting until I had the final piece (holograms and everything) before I made its own thread and gave proper credit to everyone for letting me re-create one of my favorite pieces. This is a 1 of 1 and will remain in my own collection with my other ZimNotes.

Visualplane you should wait until I actually get this printed and I can send you proofs and all other info for your portfolio and the finished product. I was just as shocked as everyone else to see it posted here and in your portfolio as I wanted to start my own thread on it and have it a surprise. As you can see this has stirred up a bees nest, and rightfully so, I am a big proponent against using people's artwork without proper credit as you can see in my history with frankbitcoin.

Hey Viz, i somewhat explained it in the second post after seeing it in his portfolio. I hired visualplane as an artist and I have received everyone besides one artist + the government of Zimbabwe's blessing to have this "re-created" (still waiting on their word before anything is printed).

It does lead to the question of whether something like it should be displayed in a portfolio(+without props to the several original artists) as it is a re-creation of an older piece.

Will be in touch I was going to exhaust my local capabilities before I contacted the king of polymer themself.

yea I was hoping a place in town would be able to slap her right on there but most places require it be a full sheet rather than just the note already cut.

lol i got visualplane to help me recreate the ZimNote to print on a Polymerbit Creative note, hence the pictures on his instagram if  anyone is wondering. having problems finding a printer that can do it now. the search continues. Also surprise ruined

2 Singles.

Exactly

Are you sure?

NaTTyMiNd holograms never fail to impress.

Here's where the newbie gets mad and pulls or doesn't honor his bids because of the expected and proper call outs by actual collectors. Script going according to plan.

confirmed, hopefully just a typo in OP

You're right.. you dont need to but as an artist you'd think you would have enough respect for someone that led the way for you to be able to do what you do today. Anyway I'm done with you. Going to commission one of these cancelled pieces to be done by killyou72 and his dremel.

Nevermind found those on google aswell. Just trying to wrap my head around your earlier reply and bolded points below. Transparency is all we ask from coinmakers on this forum, you cant really pull the wool over our eyes here. A lot of us have been in the game for a lot longer than you think.
You're right that it was not a "catch".. rather nobody actually thought that you took the EXACT art and just combined it with some text and considered it worth $800-$900 USD.
You should have provided links to Elihu Vedder's wikipedia page, explained this man a little more to us and had proper links to his paintings. You did not do your due diligence on this piece and this is why you were called out and in the end the project to be cancelled. ( No one straight up was an asshole, we were mainly hinting that your price point is undeserved as a first time coin creator )

If anyone is photoshop skilled I would like to see the two images I pulled from google images turned greyscale to see just how similar it is to the coin mockup.
I wouldn't have continued on this path but reading the bullshit "this is artistry" post made by frankbitcoin it further piqued my interest.

Its a hard pill to swallow paying 0.1BTC when all you did was trace/flip these two pictures and throw it on a coin with no original artistry of your own. I feel as though you and your team could have come up with something a little better and hopefully you continue with your series and incorporate bitcoin into the face of the coin.




At the very least I appreciate that the original artist's signatures are still on the drawup of the coin. I feel as though once the actual coin is minted that it may be one of the things that doesnt make it onto the actual silver coin. ( i hope it stays on but as we have seen with the bordering on the NattyMind Samsara coin sometimes the little intricate parts can not actually be done )

Demanding this sort of price point from a bitcoin collectibles community just because another proven coin creator also has a 5oz Silver coin series does not mean that yours is worth the same amount as his. If you go back to when team NattyMind brought out their first coin you can see that they almost/possibly did take a hit just to get their name out there.

This is your second piece in a row that is piggybacking off of another artist/product. Your 65crypto metal wall piece and now this.

This is not a hitpiece but you can see that a lot of the collectors on here are skeptical to reserve these, I think once an actual prototype or the first coins are struck with hologram revealed and applied you might see more interest.

I'd like to see some kind of bearer bar. Bitcoin of course. The full block 25BTC and 12.5BTC bars were a little bit more than I wanted to put into a collectible.
