Breaking down @jonnydegods @y00tsNFT artwork documentation.

All the things you should know about this legendary artist of @DeGodsNFT and @y00tsNFT. 🧵
Jonny formerly known as Delilah.

The guy who drew DeGods from this sketch 18 months ago.

He's the father of DeGods and the artist behind DeGods and Y00ts.

Co-founder and chief design officer at DeLabs.


Degods to Deadgods was a masterpiece.

Art upgrade on y00ts is confirmed.

It's time for us to breakdown how Jonny design this collection.


Highly recommend you all to check this out.

Beautifully documented the making of y00ts.


Generative art makes unpredictable combination.

Traits can fit really well sometimes like the gold pharaohs headdress god.

Ugly degods are generated based on the chaotic randomization of traits.
There are some common problems for generative nft.

Bright colors are overwhelming in the long run.

This is the reason why most of the y00ts fur are in neutral color.
However, these neutral color with defined color palette make a collection too restrictive and repetitive.

Eyewear is jonny's weapon to make the collection brighter and more attractive.
After the success of Deadgods art, team wanted y00t to be a character that more accessible to a wider audience.

Duppies was the original second collection of DeGods.

The goal is to create original character as Apes, Bears, and other animals were oversaturated in the market.
Duppies ended up being a dead end as team can't find a story for this character to exist.

They pivoted and turned "duppies" into "y00ts" .
These are some of the original y00ts.

However, none of them match with the color theory playbook that I mentioned above.

Team decide to delay the art reveal for 1-2 months after t00b mint .
Jonny mentioned in the document : how do we make a generative collection that is bright and colorful, not overwhelming, and not repetitive?

Let me show you the answer with my squad.
The art upgrade of @y00tsNFT is coming s00n.

Never fade the team that choose to remake a better art that forever exist on the blockchain when they have to deal with those FUD.


Glad to see that the legend is having fun with his drawing.
