Claynosaurz — is a collection of 10,000 3D animated NFTs that aims to create a digital-native studio born in web3.
Background
Giving the history of this project, it was under construction for about a year before the mint and many people thought it was an ETH project (there were even rumours about NEAR). After a while they chose SOL and to this day they have no roadmap.
A big part was played by their very beautiful 3D art, which was drawn by 14 artists, one of which was involved in creating the art for POPHEADZ (joiceloo)
The team behind Claynosaurz has a wealth of experience in animation and film, and they take their cue from the creative processes that have helped them succeed in the past. They have worked with companies such as: Sony, Disney, Netflix, Ubisoft, Warner Bros, Riot Games, Illumination, Marvel, Industrial Light & Magic.
Equally interesting is the team’s plan to run artist mentoring programmes and offer their services to other web3 projects. They’ve already made their mark in this by launching a first-of-its-kind campaign in collaboration with 1/1 artists, which generated an impressive average income of 100 SOL per artist, for a total of 15 artists.
Claynosaurz was one of the first projects to be launched on Metaplex’s Creator Studio.
Sardinhas | gen1
Sardinhas were a free pre-mint that was handed out in Lisbon during Breakpoint in early November.
Sardinhas in 2023 can be combined with glue and burned with Claymaker in Act 1 to produce an egg from which a pterodactyl will subsequently hatch.
Claynosaurz | gen2
For the moment it’s a plain and pretty PFP, but there are big plans for them in the future. More details to come below.
The most expensive sale was for 1500 SOL
Claymaker | gen3
There was an airdrop for those who hit the snapshot before 9 December, and they sent out this miracle on 13 December in the amount of 10,000 pieces.
What’s the use of them?
They act as a forge. You can use the Claymaker to fire clay, combine items, create armour and more. There are 3 levels:
-
First (common) — low durability;
-
Deluxe (rare) — good durability;
-
Limited (Legendary) — lifetime warranty.
Durability? This means that Claymakers are deflationary. They also have a 24-hour cooling period.
More information and mechanics will be available on Rawrmap.
Clay | gen4
Once again the airdrop, the snapshot for which was made on 15 December and all the Clay was distributed on 28 December, but what is it for?
What’s the use?
Clay is a precious resource that is deflationary. By combining different types of clay in Claymaker, owners will be able to fire the clay and eventually select certain grades.
There are a total of 6 basic colours and there is also golden clay, of which there are few. Each class has its own unique advantages and abilities.
Now for a general discussion of what the Acts are
Act 1
This all goes into Act 1. The classes will be crucial in Acts 2 and 3. Soon (beginning of Q2) we will be able to see the armour of these classes.
Ancient dinosaurs (gold) will have increased buffs, hybrid classes will be able to participate in solo raids. By design, the armour is unique.
Act 2
Quests and Raids. Classes will make a difference. Some quests will be solo, some will require packs or allies.
Act 3
???
Croissants | gen5
Croissants were a particular rarity for visitors to NFT Paris. From what is known, they will give some rare armour.
Community
It’s very cool and I love it. Support for ETH whales before launch, lots of SOL, PFP infls, mentions and tweets with the project. The marketing is going great for them. Activity is very good for the project, I have nothing more to say, as well as about the team (gave information at the beginning)
The future
**They have recently started a collaboration with Elixir
**Earlier I parsed Elixir, and talked about corruption (the game). So, you had a chance to win NFT Dinosaurs in that game, and Elixir was getting offers to share/inject corruption, most likely a similar game we will see for Dinosaurs.
- There was a tweet with some hint of the game (???)
- Roadmap (Rawrmap) coming soon.
- Plan to hold live training sessions.
Claynotopia
Little information about it, but perhaps it will be a world (website or game) in which you can travel and visit the utilities you need.
Bottom line
Claynosaurz is really something else. The team is developing a new level of project, overflowing with imagination and creativity. With experience and a romantic vision for the future of the web3, Claynosaurz is ready to make a splash not only in the Solana NFT community, but all over the world. But for the moment, they are a brand and nothing more, and play for the long term.
