I want you to look closely at this video. What you’re seeing is four years of building a world, asset by asset. Every single one of these elements is animated. Each animation fills 30 seconds. That’s 720 frames per asset. Now look at the layers. They range from 0 to 11 (not even counting the VFX layers). Throughout the video you can see them appear and disappear, showing how each fragment is actually constructed. Because when people see a fragment of this world, something interesting happens. Most assume they’re looking at a 1/1 artwork. And honestly… that assumption makes sense. How else could something this detailed exist? But here’s the reality. There are no algorithms doing the heavy lifting. No shortcuts. No generative black boxes. Just straight artistry. Years of craft. And a deep understanding of how to build a world piece by piece. And that’s the part I sometimes feel I failed to show clearly enough. Making a generative collection isn’t hard. But building a generative world? A generative story? A place people feel like they’ve already been before? That’s an entirely different beast. This space says it cares about innovation. Well… Here it is. So next time you see a fragment of the Lonely Road, don’t scroll past too quickly. Take a moment. Because if you look closely enough, you might notice details or secrets.. That no one else has seen yet.

Surprisingly got the max duration for my visa renewal - what better way to celebrate than to grab this Fragment I’ve been eyeing for a while 🌃 I resonate with #4728 deeply because it reminds me of home (HK). I can almost tell where you’d find a view like this.

It feels surreal to say this after almost 4 years, but unfortunately the time has come for me to leave my work with Dutchtide and the Midnight Breeze project, I’m sad to be closing this chapter of my life, but I’m also really proud I got to be part of something this special for so long🫡 This Community has been my home for years, all the wonderful people i've met in the discords and IRL, everything i've learnt about this space, the amazing things i've had the privileged to be involved in has been thanks to Breeze and the people there, and i want to say thank you all from the bottom of my heart!🫶 I also want to say a huge thank you to @dutchtide for giving me the chance to be part of all this, and for trusting me to help shape the community into what it is today. It really is one of the best I’ve ever seen in this space. And that’s down to all of you, everyone who collected, everyone who showed up in the server with good vibes, everyone I’ve spoken to from all over the world. This journey has been wild and I honestly love you all for being part of it with me! 💜 Even though I won’t be working with the studio directly anymore, I will always support this project and the people here. I originally joined for the art and the community, and both of those are still here, so dont think you will be rid of me that easily! As for me… it’s time to branch off and figure out whats next for me in the world of web3, i'm gonna take the month to see some family, relax and focus on my plans and where i want to be after this, but don't hesitate to reach out if you ever have anything you want to speak to me about, my DM's are always open🫡 Once again, thank you everyone, I love you all, and don't forget... Stay Breezy Stay Bullish 🍃

Been doing this for 5 years straight. And honestly theres a few things i took away from it. 1. Timeline only cares if you got momentum. Momentum comes from speculation. Speculation comes from the community. Community comes from art. 2. Complaining about engagement always gives engagement. Aka, negative energy always gets perpetuated over positive energy. Its the way this space works. And socials an large. 3. Bubbles are real. I have my breeze bubble. Ive been here long enough. But to reach outside of it? That's a big big challenge. Most of the time I end up speaking to you guys. But not really anyone outside the space. 4. The only growth metric I know is to build engaging stuff. And ask individually, aka dm 500 people that you know and have spoken to. To have a look and, honestly engage. And that alone will get you out there. This is why the KOLs have a position of power. Whereas they do not neccecarily contribute anything to the space. They simply can create ripples you as builder cannot yourself. But do not stare yourself blind on that either. Just because there's a ripple, does not mean there's conversion. And all this shit, it has nothing to do with art. And thats why it's so tiring. Especially because people want you to play this game perfectly. I want to play it perfectly. But its damn hard. Especially knowing my stuff is so hard to produce, and niche. Take away though. Find ways to have fun. Otherwise it's just a drag

The last ever NFTBox is an ode to 'Homecoming', bringing full circle this incredible collaboration between @pranksy, @magpie, dozens of artists and collectors who believe. Within find a nod to the spirit in us all that longs for home, by @dutchtide NFTs started out representing artists outside of mainstream galleries, rooting for the dispossessed and the outsiders in art. Now @houseofpranksy hopes for new beginnings with old friends, and new adventures with new friends. Eat half, walk double, laugh triple, and love without measure.

Without Pranksy @midnightbreezey wouldnt be where it is today. At the time in peak 21, he minted hundreds of breezes. But what many of you do not know, is we have spoken a lot before then. For NFT boxes in collaboration with @XCOPYART . And its still one of my proudest artworks. Once again, thank you for supporting. And feeling the breeze!

My next #NDC purchase is @midnightbreezey by @dutchtide. I minted the original collection by the truckload, and have always appreciated Dutchtide's majestic art style. Please check out the website, it's actually incredible: midnightbreeze.io/ The mint for his new collection is still live. I picked this one up today 💕 Also, the Sprinter Trueno AE86 is the greatest car ever produced, forget your lambos, it was peak... everything.

Name one project thats done generative animation on the scale of midnightbreeze. Ill wait

Day 6 Sharing Breezy Vibes Some day I feel like the Mysterious Man, heading to some new destination on this Lonely Road. Just to find myself in the same place I started. Again, Again, and again.. Promises of Tasty Noods, Powerful gods, and a tiny garden to enjoy.

Find an easter egg in @midnightbreezey: Fragments of the Lonely Road. 'Buddha statues' and 'The End' interact in a unique way that only happens with this specific combination of traits.

The Journey. Hand designed by @dutchtide to represent the lonely, arduous, and challenging path one must travel on the road to success. May this be a reminder on your darkest of days that obscurity is part journey. Stay on the path, there will eventually be light.

While finishing the final stretch toward Fragments launch, I ended up creating something different, a piece that now feels closer to home than ever. “The Journey.” An artwork for those who dare to walk their own path. The kind hidden behind uncertainty, lit only by faith. As an artist and founder, that path feels all too familiar. Most of the time I have no idea where I’m heading, only that I must keep going. You see the peak ahead, you dream about it, but the path? It’s never clear. Sometimes you can’t even see the ground beneath your feet. And right behind that mountain lies oftentimes, something bigger, quietly waiting for you to notice, the next challenge, the next vision, the next obsession. That’s the thing about walking the Lonely Road. There are no maps. No guarantees. Only those who keep moving forward will ever understand what “the journey” really means. Because walking the common path is easy. Following your own, that takes courage. Looking back now, with V2 behind me, I know I’ve scaled something extraordinary. Maybe not everyone sees it yet, but I do. And the view from here is worth every step. Onto the next mountain. Even bigger, higher, and more unknown than before. Thank you, @leonabboud, for letting me bring this vision to life. - Dutchtide
