I'm not an artist by traditional means but that did not stop me from releasing my first NFT collection recently.
I was unfortunate in that I did not recieve a Loophead NFT from the 1st Loopring NFT competition so I thought why not create my own Loophead, with black jack and hookers!
And thus FrankenLoops was born! FrankenLoops are an NFT collection that was generated by running a machine learning algorithm on the 25,000 images of the first Loophead NFT drop.
The training for the machine learning algorithm took a couple of days as I don't have a powerful GPU and I couldn't figure out how to run it on a more powerful system in the cloud. Maybe they are worth a bit more as a result?
After the training was completed, I generated the FrankenLoops and curated the 222 most interesting ones. #9 was sent/generated twice because I thought it was broken by some Loopring changes.
Check out the generated FrankenLoops below.
