California-based artist and designer Mark Paul Deren, commonly known as MADSTEEZ, has unveiled his new NFT collection called WEENimals, which consists of 8,444 pieces based on his original hand-drawn characters.
WEENimals are minted on the Ethereum blockchain and will be added to the artist’s WEENverse, which he describes as a community-first project centered around play and creativity. As a result, owners of a WEENimal will be granted access to this exclusive space where they can participate in special events and product drops. Just like MADSTEEZ's artworks, the new WEENimals NFTs feature a range of cartoon-like characters dressed in bright and acidic colors.
Finally, MADSTEEZ has also announced that the collection will include 14 rare NFTs that come with the opportunity for owners to commission a painting by the artist.
