  This is looks almost identical to my Botcoin man cave!! 

   To really make it like mine why not place my timelock clock in thebackground as well??

   Now you will have a smart contract loaded clock on the wall to compliment the rest...and throw in a bitbills or so too!

STAGE 6

About half of the finishing part is done.

I added a lot more detail, it was especially fun painting in my own artworks like the Bitcoin Miner on top right!




Besides rendering work, there's still a couple of question open:

Ob the Bitcoin ticker on top, which number should be showing? Maybe the all time high, or the actual number as I finish the piece?

Maybe the most fun is which part of our forum the monitor would show?

I was thinking of again using real gold to paint a couple of details, like the coin in Bitcollector's hand, what do you think?

And if the shirt can become a statement as well, and ideas?





And here's one shot of my brush doing the heavy lifting 




I expect to have this canvas finished in a week or two, so your comments here will be much appreciated.

Then the fun part of making this item a collectible will begin. We still need to settle on how and when.


But right now, let's finish this canvas, the first of its kind!

Cheers!

Just hopping back into this thread and WOW what a transformation from first post to
this!

I think the number you finish this on is the most fitting!

Maybe the most fun is which part of our forum the monitor would show?

I think it would be interesting to see the first page of this thread or a version of it.

Absolutely, this essentially is the focal point of the piece.

And if the shirt can become a statement as well, and ideas?

maybe just the BTC symbol as a pattern?

  Collectable section where we are now

  Yes gold leaf paint would be the way to go just as you did with my painting!

And if the shirt can become a statement as well, and ideas?

 

  Hmm….A bitcoin shirt would be good as well…the question is what type?

Thanks for the comments!

Almost a consensus here, perfect.

I'd rather go with general "Collectibles" on the monitor, than only this thread, because that's Bitcollector's lair. 

And for the shirt I'll go for a BTC motif and see where my brush spontaneously takes me!

I'll have a two day break now and that's more space for your input.

Later!

STAGE 7

Dear Art Project Collaborators, we're nearly there.





I believe I painted in everything except three details awaiting the final session:

* BTC ticker current value
* project code on bottom left (still open for optimization suggestions)
* artist's signature.


No explaining novels from me today, just a couple of fun shots


Here's Satoshi peeking
 


..and a photo from our Bitcollector's angle



And two closeups of the newly gilded centerpiece coin.





Last call for any suggestions. I any case, I'll have this finished and properly photographed in a couple of days.

Have a great day everyone!

wow - the artwork gets better and more colorful with every further step/stage
i would perhaps draw the block time in the ticker at which your artwork is completely finished

and finally i can recognize the Icarus cards

[krogothmanhattan]

Awesome work there bro!  Its almost a replica of my Bitcoin man cave!!!

  What do you mean project code at the bottom left? You mean the blank square bottom left? Make a QR code of Satoshi's first BTC wallet address 

  Keep up the good work!!

[1Dq]

Thanks guys!

Cygan, the Icarus cards were one of the last things I worked on today.

Krog, for code I meant this signature that will anchor the artwork in a unique system, similar to blockchain as explained here:

Weekly update #2

More importantly, I worked on "coding" the Signature of the artwork.

I used a square as base, as its most practical in being positioned in most circumstances.


This is how the code is constructed from top to bottom in this demo:

BTC-TLK 001/1 (Bitcoin Talk, project 001 (this will be the first official artwork in this concept-series) and /1 meaning it is the single one or first of the series. Maybe a 1/1 (or 3/3, 19/19) would be clearer.)

1Dq Eld kro... (First three characters of members of the current artwork project. Everyone from Bitcollectors is listed in this one, in the future maybe merit or some other type of work proof would be needed)

Two thumbnail images in bottom left (Previous two artworks in the concept. For first one, I used the Pie artwork and BTCtalk's 10th Anniversary artwork)

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)


I inserted the code in the center of our concept sketch, as I feel if this is the beginning of something grandous, let's make it obvious.



I'm especially interested in how you think the coding could be upgraded.
