    So I kinda did this.....

    It's an idea that's been in my head on the backburner for ages and then when I heard about NFTs and CryptoArt I thought this would be the perfect platform to launch something like this on.

    I've designed 24 new tartans, each for a Clan. The clan names, as you can see are Scottish insults. Each clan will only ever have 10 members and each has a reigning Chief.

    This is the spiel:

    "Scottish insults are brutal yet beautifully poetic and concise. These choice words and phrases are as colourful as our beautiful land, ingrained into the vocabulary and collective consciousness of Scots everywhere. They deserve a greater recognition within our heritage, they deserve their own clans, they deserve their own tartans!"

    Have put them on OpenSea as it's the only platform that makes sense for this huge amount of NFT 'minting'.

    Would really appreciate any feedback, spreading of the word, sharing of links etc.

    So now I've unloaded this idea onto the world it's time to get my artworks up too on a personal account!

    • How much did it cost you to mint and publish each item? And are there any Opensea fees for publishing and or fees for selling on their platform?utopian
    • There's only one transaction fee needed with OpenSea that's why I went with them for this project. Was about £65.microkorg
    • Then they'll take 2.5% per sale I think, I don't pay anything, it comes out of the sale price. They are a good model for this kind of project.microkorg
    • All the other platforms I'd have to pay per minting as posting. Would've cost thousands! Lolmicrokorg
    • These are great. I had a mind to buy 'Rich Cunt', but I am not that rich of a cunt, sadly. I hope a proper rich cunt finds this and claims it.monNom
    • You're awesome. Just wanted to say it.garbage
    • Where did you signup for your initial account?
      https://metamask.io      utopian
    • Did you go here next to Connect Your Digital Wallet? https://rarible.comutopian
    • Or did you set-up your account and digital wallet all at Opensea?utopian
    • Once you have set-up your Opensea account...are you allowed to upload and desk your NFT art on other marketplace websites such as: https://makersplace.…utopian
    • If you could provide me/us will the best way of: setting an account, minting, uploading images, etc.. on the Opensea platform that would be fantastic, thanks.utopian
    • monNom haha yeah that one was for fun and priced accordingly ;)microkorg
    • Utopian, just signed up metamask account and put a couple of hundred quid in it then signed up to OpenSea using that wallet.microkorg
    • Everything is free up to the point of minting your first NFT then you get a one-off charge to setup everything. Then after that its all free again...microkorg
    • ..with fees coming off final sale not out your pocket. Mind though that theres diff rules for auctions! If you ACCEPT a bid YOU have to pay the GAS fee.microkorg
    • You can use same wallet over multiple platforms. SOme platforms it seems talk to each other so can view what NFT assets you have on each platform.microkorg
    • Haven't tried it yet but it looks like you can have multiple 'Accounts' in MetaMask which I assume would allow you to create different accounts on OpenSea...microkorg
    • ..that are not connected. My plan will be to get some artworks up on there then looking to get on Rarible where you can 'follow' to setup more of a network...microkorg
    • ...so more likely folk see my personal artworks. U cant do this with Opensea you need to promote via social etc.microkorg
    • Looks like Foundation is the legit one to be on as you need an invite so theres less 'noise' on there and more legit art.microkorg
    • So was going to get personal stuff on social and opensea then try to find myself a Foundation invite ;)microkorg
    • Thank you Microkong :)utopian
    • And thanks for all the Upvotes!!!!microkorg
    • What am I buying here ? a jpg ? a unique id ??i_was
    • An idea, a concept ?i_was
    • Great use of NFT!zaq
    • Some good names on there. Really well presented too. Bampot is such an underused word sadly. :-)PhanLo
    • Nicely executed. I totally don't get it though.mort_
    • If someone buys it, what do they get?monospaced
    • They get the NFT and associated jpeg certificate. Is this lost on anyone other than the Scottish know Scottish banter? Lolmicrokorg
    • When you buy an NFT you get an NFT.
      Upvoted.      palimpsest
    • Some NFT's (JPGs. GIFs, MP4s) also come with the original art work (Hi-res art, the actual painting and or original source files). This depends on the artist.utopian
    • Would you download a car?palimpsest
    • Would you milk a cat?mort_
    • SO BRAVE!Hayoth
    • Some of them are very similar to real Scottish clan tartans.

    • *Imagine that the NFT scene pops like an overheated bubble; all blockchains die and take all the blockchain art with it. But imagine that you'd downloaded andneverscared
    • backed up the ten thousand most expensive and/or popular NFT artworks.neverscared
    • drgs, at the bottom of the certificates there's a disclaimer. This is a Parody. Any resemblance to an actual clan or tartan is purely coincidental.microkorg
    • Nice. Good luck mate.Hayzilla
