Top 100 3D Renders from the Internet's Biggest CG Challenge | Infinite Journeys

All of today's NFT's combined have nothing on these renders. This to me is real modern day art.

[@Eheh589]

This art defines their work on how NFTs really ruin their reputation is so ridiculous

[@miguelnign1475]

Meh, depends on what area you see nfts. Maybe 5% are really good, which is the art nfts part made by professional individuals and artists. Not what you see on opensea(garbage dump), mostly found on foundation and super rare.

[@bnpr]

So relatable. I hate NFTs who don't have artistry and they are just for money. Thankfully, people in art industry including me are not blinded by money and just keep exploring and helping other people to expand their art works. Art and programming is like a universe
