Vulcan Forged, through its partnership with Artefy, has secured the IP rights to tokenize NFTs from what some believe to be the greatest fantasy artists of all time.

The artists include: Frank Frazetta, Sanjulian, Ciruelo Cabral, Juan Gimenez who have worked on greats such as Conan the Barbarian, Magic the Gathering, Heavy Metal and the George Lucas’ Bantom trilogy.

The art will be made into exclusive collectible 1 of 1 Vulcanite editions, to be owned and used within Vulcan Forged main game, the fantasy metaverse VulcanVerse. As with other Vulcanites, the image will be rendered into a 3D character NFT that can be used by players to fight, forage, spy, and defend.

Author Jamie Thomson, who is writing a gamebook based on VulcanVerse, has also been given permission to use the artwork within the books and has been given the go-ahead to create the cards and lore for each.

How to get one:

The Frank Frazetta NFTs will be won by a raffle. Raffle tickets will be bought using PYR (the in-game currency of Vulcan Forged). Vulcan Forged will be offering PYR fiat on-ramps this week, but for now, it trades on Kucoin.

The draw will be held live on a stream on the By The Fire Twitch channel on the 6th of August after the close of entry sales which stops at 8:15pm GMT.

Tickets are expected to go on sale on 20th June at 4 pm GMT, whereby users can use Vulcan Forged’s fiat on-ramp to purchase PYR and a ticket for the NFT.

There are a total of 4 NFTs only to be won, and these could be some of the most valuable NFTs ever sold as mainstream artists now continue their cross over into the blockchain world.
