Boogatooth Art Update: The Final 1% 🐯

Booga weekend, insiders!

James here with a quick update on the Boogatooth art 🐯

We just wrapped up an intense week-long grind curating the final traits for the collection.

The art has actually been done for a while, but we used a small window before the Tooth launch to level things up even further.

They say the final 1% of the art is where the magic happens, and that certainly holds true for Boogas.

You learn so much going through the creation process. You become locked in on what works best, and as the optimizations get narrower and narrower, it just becomes obvious what traits are going to look boogtastic and take the collection to a whole new level 🔥

For example, we naturally wanted the Tigers to show off more skin than the Cavemen (the Tooth will have over 20 skins, compared to the Cavemen’s 5!). Because of that, we initially steered clear of classic shirts and stuck to vests and accessories.

However, this week we managed to pull off some dope casual shirts too, like this:

It wasn’t easy! Working with an animated collection brings some unique challenges where even seemingly simple things get pretty complicated. Just adding those sleeves meant diving back into hours of rig work.

We also tweaked and animated a ton of mouths to better align with the Booga spirit. Things shifted towards a higher concentration of happier looks…faces that will make you smile and put a bounce in your step 😉

And of course, we developed some absolutely epic legendary traits, but leaks for those will have to wait!

Now we shift to the fun part: selecting the actual NFTs that will make it into the collection. More on that soon!

Have a boogtastic weekend, and make sure your notis are on in Booga Town for all the latest launch updates 🙌
