With Minted Teddy, Claudio sets to redefine what NFT avatars stand for. Unlike other NFT avatar projects such as Bored Apes and Cool Cats, each Minted Teddy profile picture is a stunning piece of fine 3D art, and that is just the beginning.
Claudio has been working on the project for several months while pushing the limits of 3D design and generative art with each teddy NFT.
“I was attracted to Minted Teddy because of the passion the team has for creating the most impactful teddy bear character to impact kids and crypto parents positively,” said Claudio. “This is our legacy project, which can live forever in the metaverse, and our opportunity to touch the future generations.”
The design process for Minted Teddy is quite intense and time-consuming, but the results are extraordinary 3D teddies. Each teddy in the collection is unique and designed by Claudio before starting the procedural variation process. After that, Claudio inspects all teddies manually for quality control, touch-ups, and re-rendering.
“We pour our heart and soul into each teddy,” says Zoran Kovacevic, the founder of Toymint and Minted Teddy. “Claudio is a gift from the universe because he obsesses about making each special.”
Minted Teddy NFTs will evolve into metaverse-ready avatars and go on various adventures that blur the lines between physical and digital life.
