Collection of over 100 Animated Anime NFTs!
Currated from a 1-year daily drawing challenge during the covid lockdown
Origins of B.A.D. Anime
"Budget Anime Drawings"
On April 19, 2020 Budget Anime Drawings was born. It all started with a quick doodle of Naruto's "Sexy Jutsu" while being bored during the major Covid-19 lockdown.
That simple doodle bloomed into a daily art challenge that lasted an entire year, consisting of over 365 Anime drawings!
Just like with all my art, I had a lot of fun with the project by including easter eggs!
(example: if you scroll thru the entire year of drawings on instagram, you will see a rainbow gradient where every 6 panels the background color would slightly change.)
One major thing I took away from this project would be an even stronger grasp of dedication!
I will be first to admit, I totally under-estimated the time and dedication it took to complete such a project!
There was no days off and several nights where I questioned if this challenge was worth the investment. I am so proud that I stuck through it and have this awesome collection to share with all of you!
I would also like to give a shout-out to artists like @BEEPLE who has done 13+ years of everydays.
