With the Fleshlings reveal looming, I want to share what I’m building for holders including the greater @SeizeTheCulture ecosystem.
The Fleshlings art is at the center of this collection. Alongside it, your Fleshling will give you a direct connection to the wider Seize the Culture ecosystem.
Here’s what that means:
- Automatic access to future STC releases. Access meaning you can participate; it doesn’t mean every release is free
- Access to the STC Discord, including whitelist opportunities and giveaways reserved for OG members
- Holder allocations for eligible releases that you can mint yourself or share with others. Founders and collaboration managers can use these to introduce their communities to STC and build new connections
For example, a release could offer 10 spots per Fleshling: one personal mint and nine additional mints. Share them, keep them, or do both. Allocations would be announced for each release
I’m also actively working on the STC collector hub, where you’ll be able to:
- Explore collections, upcoming work, and a physical items shop
- View your NFTs including any @wyattswideworld you've sent to reserve (iykyk) and a collector score
- Access high-quality files for the NFTs you own
- Develop your Fleshling’s identity and story for others to see
Planned Fleshling files include a 2D PFP, full-body front, back, left, and right views, and eventually 3D models.
The planned collector score system will offer opportunities to redeem free mints, discounts, and physical items, with multipliers for holding other STC collections alongside Fleshlings.
Thank you for being here. I’m excited to reveal your characters and give you more ways to enjoy what you collect.
Fleshlings reveal is less than 48 hours away
Close to half the collection as been redone, @SeizeTheCulture website is underway and some potential added benefits to holding Fleshlings to be announced in the future.
I wanted to share the very first concept of Fleshlings.
I said it before, the very very first concept looks nothing like the Fleshlings you'll see in the collection.
This image of random prehistoric looking artifacts served as a reference image while creating using Midjourney 8.2 which led eventually to the very first character concept (I will share it tomorrow!)
I am Flesh, therefore, I am a Fleshling.
Nothing but the truth
Br4ted is an icon btw 😉
I’ve learnt one thing lately: never do anything for someone who doesn’t appreciate your gesture when you share something with them.
Stay in your lane, stay focused, do good for the real ones and keep moving forward.
The majority of people in the CT know how to say sweet things on the timeline but their actions speak otherwise.
Practice what you preach.
slow reveal =
opportunity to accumulate grails sitting on floor
weed out impatient holders
make sure art is 1000/10
any questions?

Good art is one part of building a successful brand
Everything built around it is what gives the art meaning and value, and that takes time and effort
If NFT degens put as much money into backing people who are seriously building as they do chasing the latest shiny thing, we'd be in a much better place as an industry
Who knew all I needed to be motivated in web3 was a long, boring IRL job 😂
Ever since securing this job, I’ve spent all of my free time creating, even if that means going to bed at midnight
Funny enough, I think I do my best creative work when I’m limited on time
There’s always this pressure in web3 to produce, produce, produce at light speed
Having less time forces me to slow down, reset, and look at my work from different perspectives
It’s honestly why I’ve made changes to the Fleshlings art ahead of the reveal
If you don’t already know me, I’m a perfectionist. I take pride in my work and I’m constantly looking for ways to improve my skills
Every collection I’ve released is a reflection of where I was as an artist at that moment
And that brings me to something I always think about:
I’m not really a traditional artist
Most of my portfolio exists on chain, minted and owned by collectors. My artistic progression is permanently documented through the work I’ve released into other people’s hands
I can’t go back to change those pieces
I can only improve on what comes next
I wonder if that’ll be a long term advantage or disadvantage as an artist
What do you think?

Time to run up another 16-18 hour day
Just a recap from last night: I made Plebs rarer and introduced a “Icons” archetype
The archetype will encapsulate some web3 goats, as well as funny/dope artistic interpretations of popular IP
!wen reveal
The 7 hours of sleep, 17 hours of work will catch up eventually but not today.
Plebs are rarer… new archetype “Icons”
Will you be multiple chasing grails or keeping one just for access ? 👀
Either way, I’m making sure reveal is promising for everyone 🫡

GOOOOOD MORNING FLESHLINGS
We’re approaching a 1 eth traded milestone, and I want to reiterate the appreciation I have for everyone here
I hope you have a great day, watch your fleshing today ⬜️
The amount of love and respect I have for my OG collectors is unmatched...
Of course I love and respect ALL my collectors but this particular group has been through it all with me for the last 2-3 years and they're still here.
Take notes ✍️
