I would like to create a series of iamges of Gitcoinbots fighting Moloch (Moloch is the god of coordination failure, the god of problems -- like cancer, arms races, underfunding of open source software, overfishing, etc). I recently did a podcast about why this is Ethereums most important mission - to create the sword that will slay moloch.
i want to do a series of illustrations of the public goods justice league (all the brands pictured on gitcoin.co/grants in the header) fighting moloch.
Details of this bounty:
- 16:9 images only, pls submit vectorized in svg format.
- This should be an image of a Gitcoinbot fighting Moloch (or many gitcoin bots or a swarm of molochs), you can use this this this this as inspiration.
- Feel free to use the existing collateral of what the GItcoin bot looks like and existing collateral of Moloch and this one too. You can put the company logos on the chest of each Gitcoin Bot to represent that it's these community members who are fighting Moloch.
I will take the best of these images and post them to the Gitcoin twitter during Gitcoin Grants Round 8 starting December 8th. The main goal of this campaign is.
- Build the meme of "Ethereum community vs Moloch"
- Make the companies in these images look cool AF for funding public goods.
- Build the narrative of public goods == good.
I will offer UP TO 200 DAI per image that is accepted into the campaign; up to 7 images (one per person). If you do not put the time in (or do not have the skill) to make the image a high quality image, that we would be proud to use on twitter, you will not get the full amount. The goal of this is quality > quantity. Please DO NOT submit copyrighted material. The final amount is up to my discretion, if you have questions about whether you're on the right track, pls PM me on Gitcoin chat.
Instrutions;
- Start work on Gitcoin
- Post a sketch of what you're going to do to the github issue thread below.
- Ill give feedback.

Hey there @owocki, thank you for the invitation to collaborate in this project! I actually did some pretty heavy research about the topic, listened to the podcast you recommended and read the Meditations on Moloch essay. You'll be able to find a README file in my repository where I talk about a little bit more in depth about the background that inspired this illustration:
https://github.com/daniniguez/gitcoinbot-vs-moloch-artwork/blob/master/README.md
I wanted to hear about your thoughts on the illustration I've been working on as per your instructions and see if its going on the right track:
And a framed version:
This is my contribution to this project, hope you like it! :D Waiting for feedback :3

@melvinalvarez sweet; looks like its coming along
@azizyano i like the direction. the gitcoin bot looks like a ninja!
@gabisakita looks cool! the art style kind of reminds me of a cartoon (which makes moloch not that scary), but it works! its a whole world :)
