Check Out Prime Ape Planet: Featuring Artists From Godzilla, Marvel, and More

When a project surpasses $68 million in trading volume on OpenSea two weeks after launch, you know it’s a big one – and that’s exactly what the Prime Ape Planet is. This project has surpassed 100,000 members on its Discord channel in less than 24 hours – and for good reason.

Launched in late December, these hand-drawn 3D apes come straight from the visual artists of Marvel, The Witcher, and more. Following decades of success in real life, the three-artist team is now taking over the metaverse, so let’s find out all about them!

What is Prime Ape Planet?

At first glance, Prime Ape Planet is a collection of 7,979 3D avatar-style NFTs launched in late December, 2021. Look closer, though, and you’ll find one of the most promising projects of 2022 – and for good reason.

The story of this project begins by admitting a harsh truth: the metaverse is already filled with ape NFTs. However, the Primus Ethereum Mammal, or prime ape, aims to take things to a new level.

According to the official website, these outstanding hand-drawn NFTs can show up ‘in their full 3D forms.’ From movies and games to virtual events, each digital asset is ready to adapt and even evolve over time.

The beautiful aesthetic of this project is all due to its creators, a team of top Hollywood visual artists.

Who are the project admins?

Accordingly, the Prime Ape Planet was created by a team of three artists: Kurtis Dawe, Travis Smith, and Chris Hogstead. Each of these visual content creators has a remarkable background in Hollywood, hence the flawless Prime Ape Planet designs.

Chris Hogstead, for instance, created the visual effects for The Witcher, Gozilla, Avengers Infinity, and the list can go on. Meanwhile, Travis Smith has over ten years of experience in animation rendering and textures. At last, Kurtis Dawe (the project leader) is a veteran among movie artists, having worked for over 14 years in the domain.

In essence, this powerful team obviously has the vision, drive, and commitment to create amazing artworks while growing the community. Of course, the 2022 roadmap they recently revealed proves just that!

The project roadmap, (partially) revealed

Although Prime Ape Planet has only revealed part of the roadmap, it’s impressive, to say the least. First of all, project admins vowed to donate a whopping $50,000 to a tropical ape charity. Then, the team plans to reveal its 1:1 Legendary NFTs on OpenSea – all of which will likely increase the overall value of the collection.

Following up, each Prime Ape NFT will get ready to join the metaverse. Basically, holders will be able to use their assets in animations, games, or virtual avatars in their ‘medium of choice.’

At last, the Prime Ape Planet will welcome a brand new series of NFTs featuring other amazing animals. Notably, project admins confirmed they made this decision following plenty of requests from the community.

Nevertheless, this is just the first part of the roadmap, as the team will reveal Roadmap 2.0 soon too. Either way, the Prime Ape Planet has already proven its value in less than a month after its launch – and this is just the beginning.
