Balazs - Twelve

Client: @balazsbercsenyi

In Collaboration with: Obtainable and @jm.bihorel

We were hired to collaborate with this world renown tattoo artist (and great person) to bring his drawings and tattoos to life in 3D - which were then sold as NFTs that came with a tattoo session. Some projects we were given a drawing to go off of, other projects only an idea and we iterated until he was satisfied. Our team sculpted these assets using ZBrush, and JM textured and rendered them.

Between a Rock and a Hard Place

This is a representation of Odysseus from Homer's The Odyssey. This was a tattoo that Balazs had done in the past.

Penelope

This was an idea Balazs had after we completed the previous project, as Penelope was Odysseus' wife. This piece, he had given only an idea and a few sketches. We collaborated, iterated and improved the idea alongside him until we achieved something we were excited about.

Inner Light

This was another piece that was conceived from a tattoo Balazs had done in the past. JM added the "fireflies" in the lantern - a very nice touch.

Twelve

This was a series of 6 coins, both in gold and silver - but we have only shown one here. We designed and sculpted the coin to mimic an ancient green coin on one side, and a futuristic alien-like coin on the other. Balazs drew the symbols around the coin, and we modeled them in 3D.
