My wife, Denise, and I started a family-friendly, handmade comics accelerator program called... Handmade Comics Hatchery. In total, $1,000 USD will be awarded to select artists who release hand-drawn comics on the zeroone NFT minting and collecting platform. Throughout this month (June 2024), we will choose suitable applicant creators to receive $100 each. This will continue until the entire amount is given away.
8 Steps to Apply:
- Mint a family-friendly, handmade original comic on zeroone.art site (which is free to join and free to mint NFTs on). This can be a 1-panel comic (such as those I often create) or multi-panel comics.
- When minting the comic, set the Number of editions to any number between 2 and 100.
- Set the Personal editions number to at least 1.
- Include in the Description at least 1 sentence about the comic.
- For one of your tags, use the following: handmadehatchery
- Follow joechiappetta on zeroone (otherwise the next step won't work).
- After minting, go to Personal Settings, Reserved, and Transfer 1 edition of that NFT to the account of joechiappetta on zeroone.
- Follow joeychips on Twitter/X and tag him in a post with your submitted comic. That's also where winners will be announced.
- Comics must be 100% hand-drawn, new work, made without any AI tools and no tracing used.
- Digital comics drawn with a stylus are acceptable, as are high quality scans or photos of comics drawn on paper.
- Theme must be family-friendly: safe and suitable for viewing by all ages of people.
Happy comics hatching!
