VeeFriends surprises its holders again with a new drop: the Iconics NFT collection. These 1:1 avatars are a colorful blend between NFT artist Gilang Bogy’s unique style and Gary Vee’s legendary collection.
Each ultra-rare collectible is in fact inspired by the VeeFriends Series 1 Spectaculars, so let’s find out all about this unique collaboration!
In short, VeeFriends Iconics is a collection of rare, colorful NFT avatars. Each collectible features a different character from the VeeFriends Series 1 Spectacular collection. This time, we can see the same iconic characters under Gilang Bogy’s NFT signature style.
Of course, the artist kept each character’s basic traits intact. Their background and artistic style result in a rare, valuable NFT surprise drop.
Unfortunately, minting was never available for the VeeFriends Iconics NFTs. Instead, all VeeFriends Series 1 Character NFT holders received a corresponding VeeFriends Iconics NFT. The airdrop is based on a snapshot taken on April 15th, 2022.
Furthermore, each holder’s wallet from the same snapshot can claim a unique 12×12 Metarelics Canvas. The asset features the corresponding VeeFriends Iconics character so that collectors can show it off.
Nevertheless, the VeeFriends Iconics NFTs are available on secondary marketplaces, including OpenSea.
The term “Spectaculars” refers to the most valuable type of rarity of all VeeFriends collectibles. The founding team even considers these NFTs to be “the holy grail of any given VeeFriends character”!
For example, the VeeFriends Series 1 collection included 5 Spectacular types:
Now, collectors can enjoy these 1:1 digital assets in a brand new light – imagined by none other than Gilang Bogy.
Gilang Bogy is one of the leading NFT and Web3 artists out there. In fact, the popular creator was even featured for CryptoStrikers, the first Ethereum sports NFT. His work for the project quickly became the rarest asset in the collection, titled “Iconics”.
In other words, Gilang Bogy brought the native Indonesian art style WPAP (Wedha’s Pop Art Portrait) to the NFT market. From fractured portraits to a bright colour palette, this style is now wanted by popular NFT projects – including VeeFriends.
While the VeeFriends Iconics NFT surprise drop is hard to miss, so are the project’s other recent collaborations. For instance, Gary Vee’s collection teamed up with FrankyNines for the exclusive Gift Goat Gift #7 last month; you can check it out right here!
