Exactly. I think the lower level members look at the Legendaries, not as someone superior, but as "heroes".
At least that's how "I saw it", before I was one of them. Cheesy

Interesting play on perspectives here, it's a fun task to imagine how different levels of members perceive each other and how to visualize that.

Hello, in my opinion the work so far is very good. However, there will be many things to be added, there are several tabs, several representations of members, ratings, tabs, spammers, satoshi etc. etc. There are many things, and for me the image view is too closed for something that will need many elements. For me, the ideal would be to have a "top-down" view like the "where's wally?" drawing for example. I think that way we will be able to add more elements and show much more things.

This is an important point to address.
There is only so much space in this artwork and the concept can't extend too far from where we are.
We can still add many elements and modify them, but the overall composition has been verified by now and I believe should remain (close to) what it is.
And in this case it is a old fashioned painting about one the edgiest places on the planet Cool

.

However, I'd be more than happy to talk about starting a new project after this one with a very different approach.
A "Where's Wally?" type or something similarly crazy, detail packed, humorous sounds like a lot of fun.
In it we could put a lot of fun details and, if it was digital, it could be upgradable/modified into different versions.

Let me know if there's interest for such a project and maybe we attack it after November's anniversary!

I am very interested in a project like this, and I will be here to help if I can! But if you want to continue with this image format, that would be great too. About Satoshi, I think a being with a blurred face would be cool, as if it were a glitch on his face.

Great, I'll keep this project in mind (and my planner) and will contact you, when the time is right! Cool

Glitch face Satoshi sounds very cool, but I'm afraid we probably won't see him from the front.
If we do however, I might paint him a bit cryptic!

All the concepts are magnificent. However, there can be improvement on the personality you would want to refer Satoshi to. Since you already started using robots or cyborgs why not refer Satoshi whose facial expression is not afraid to break rules and his holding a mother box in his hands having a Bitcoin logo on it which signifies his creation of Bitcoin.

A representation as this will tend to paint Satoshi as a frightening figure. Since Satoshi is the brain behind Bitcoin whose face and personality we can't really tell, it's best to put an image that represents him at the background of the art while Bitcoin sits at the centre of his heart. You can blure it such that you can't see him visibly but paint it such that a portion of him touches on every part of the art.

What could be added to the design may be that somewhere close to the spot where newbies will be represented is Bitcoin pizza 🍕. Since from your art on newbies, you've already design something that shows how uninformed and scattered some of them are, placing a pizza around them could also tell the story behind the whole Bitcoin pizza day celebration.

Your opinions are good based on the fact that you would prefer Satoshi to be someone with a friendly facial personality but dont forget that we're trying to be futuristic here. The idea of using robotics is meant to show the future of technology. Satoshi made a technology that no one could mimic or do the same thing. Is it not worth frightening? However, I agree with the part about blurring his face as it relates to Satoshi's choice to remain anonymous.

When doing an artwork, it is important to show the key idea and personality. So that one looking at the artwork would understand and feel the artwork after some gaze. The bitcoin pizza day is a celebration day that shows the historical aspect of Bitcoin not futuristic aspect of Bitcoin. Robots dont eat pizza, so why choose pizza?

I will try to do justice both to Satoshi and Pizza day, thank you both for your input!

[...] Which one is your favorite?

There are many visualizations from Newbies, but only 1 suits me, the image below is my choice:

Look how cute it is, small body, round head & hands on the head which conveys complete confusion. Then for the second image sample, i don't like the depiction of the whale, no problem for the moderator, but the big robot with the whale logo is not very good in my opinion. Maybe it would be better if you could make a robot that looks like a whale & has a bitcoin logo.

We have whales in forum, we also have moderators, but do whales represent wisdom or intelligence? not at all, we should have other robot representations for the wise & the smart, look at how:

Bitmover makes Bitcoindata.science ^[1]
TryNinja makes Ninjastic ^[2] & Bitcointalk Notification Bot ^[3]
LoyceV makes Loyce.club ^[4]

Those above should have their own representation, right? it could be a robot with depictions of owls or other wise or smart entities, who tries to build Bitcointalk better over time.

For the representation of Satoshi i like the model above, it is very synonymous with a wizard, Satoshi is a wizard (we have to admit that) who does his magic in the finance field & how money should work these days.

1 Additional Thing
A few days ago you asked things about Bitcointalk such as how to visualize spammers & merit, are we forgetting "The Trust" here? it is part of the forum. If you also want to apply the idea to a trust system, i have an idea, you can make a depiction of it in the robot's eyes. A red-eyed robot is a robot that has more negative trust than neutral & positive, a yellow/black-eyed robot has more neutral trust, and a green-eyed robot has more positive trust.

Great, thanks for your ideas, wizartoshi seems surprisingly popular! Grin

I love the green/red eyes for the trust system!
And also thank you for the four links - will check all of them out.

And what about listing some OG names outside the collectibles like, theymos,
Welsh, mprep, philipma1957 and gmaxwell for example.

Also those who are not here and were very well renowned, Lauda, o_e_l_e_o and Zepher ...

I share same thoughts. Since we are celebrating Bitcointalk, I think this is an avenue to celebrate hardworking OGs who have kept forum alive today by mentioning listing their names. Big Thanks to them. I would suggest we also tap from the Bitcointalk Public Information Project and look at some of the most recognized members of this forum from the beginning. In selecting and celebrating the efforts of those hardworking members (present or absent), it will help us recollect the great memory and efforts marked by those and give us the morale and motivation to work hard and contribute immensely to the development of the forum.

For instance, you can crawl the BPIP and select top 2 names from each section of the lists/rankings in the homepage. We have four categories of lists/rankings, Most Merit, Most Activity, Most Trust and Most Recognized.
• Top 2 in Most Merit:
1. o_e_l_e_o ✅
2. LoyceV ✅

• Top 2 in Most Activity:
1. theymos ✅
2. OgNasty ✅

• Top 2 in Most Trusted:
1. minerjones ✅
2. Hhampuz ✅

• Top 2.in Most Recognized:
1. theymos ✅
2. Philipma1957 ✅

A big shout out to these big names again and much appreciations to their immense contribution to this forum!

Certain names keep cropping up and we need to do them justice.
I'm open to any ideas, besides writing the actual nickname, on how to incorporate them so its obvious who is represented!

...

Otherwise, I'm super busy with a new visual update, that will hopefully already have many of your ideas integrated.

But to keep it fun, here's a couple of legendary character ideas for you...

...and a gif made from a couple of scene sketches.
