Fewocious Teases Upcoming NFT Drop ‘Fewos’

NFT artist Fewocious reveals the upcoming launch of his new digital art collection, "Fewos," comprising 20,000 profile-picture NFTs to be minted in August.

  • The new NFTs, described as characters in Fewocious’ digital universe, "Fewoworld," will come in three distinct artistic species – Frankenstein, Misunderstood, and Humanoid – each with unique traits.

  • Every detail in the Fewos collection is hand-drawn by Fewocious and later converted into 3D art, but pricing for the NFTs has yet to be disclosed.

  • A presale for the 'Fewos' collection will be available to holders of Fewocious’ prior Paint Drop collection and other Fewocious digital art tokens ahead of a broader public sale later this summer.

  • Each Fewo NFT will be equipped with an ERC-6551 to become a digital wallet. The wallet can then claim a mint pass for FewoFashion, a series of digital accessories and wearables.
