— Greg Hildebrandt

LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, May 3, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — Greg Hildebrandt is an artist like no other. Known for his iconic film and music posters, he made a name for himself in 1977 with what would become the original Star Wars: A New Hope movie poster. Other notable works include his Mob Rules cover art for Black Sabbath, his run with Marvel in the 90’s and of course, his original character work with Tolkien in the early years of The Lord of the Rings. His work hangs on the walls of every genre loving fan making him one of the most acclaimed & prolific genre artists of all time. Hildebrandt’s newest endeavor has him teaming up with Heavy Metal and artist driven Blockchain company, web3 Artist Fund for his latest project Rule The Mob. A turn based blockchain card game.

Rule The Mob is an art collection and blockchain game created directly from the mind of Hildebrandt. A legend in his own right, he has compiled a series of characters in which you can play as, conquer, and ultimately “rule the mob.” Rules and the full storyline will be released on May 23rd.

The web3 Artist Fund is spearheaded by Heavy Metal CEO Matthew Medney and is designed as a bridge to web3 for artists looking to enter the space but yet to have the resources and tools to do so on their own. Medney & w3AF bridge the gap with financing, branding and tools for artists such as Hildebrandt as they explore the new horizons blockchain technology provides artists in the digital sphere.

Not only does the Rule The Mob collection provide gaming utility and interactive experiences, the art itself will provide NFT airdrops of other art. There will also be art sessions with the legend himself and the ability to stake your NFT for more unique and rare airdrops to come. The community of mobsters will be able to enrich their love of art while competing in a ruthless and fun game. In a partnership with the web3 artist fund and Heavy Metal this new endeavor will feature 11 characters, inclusive of a dimensional tool that allows the players to time travel. Other exciting additions with this mint include a free graphic novel, exclusive art, free in-game items as well as many other incentives. All information about the collectable card game and its utilities can be found at www.rulethemob.xyz

Matt Medney of Heavy Metal & web3 AF says “Of all the artists to grace our eyes with their brush or pencils Greg is by far the most important figure in proliferating science fiction and fantasy to the masses that has ever lived. Bringing that level of talent to the web3 gaming space, we wanted to explore a style that paid homage to his legacy while exploring something more fun, goofy and just wildly insane. Rule The Mob brings the best of Greg, and showcases a collection of generative art that provides the framework to his own web3 universe.”

“83 going on 12, that’s how my friends describe me. And thank God!” As Greg reflects, “The older I get the younger I get and when you are a kid you want to try everything! Rule the Mob is the first generative art project I have done. Without a doubt it will not be the last. Like a kid in a candy store it gave me the opportunity to open up the trap door in my brain and let pure fun fall out. I had a blast creating this for Heavy Metal. I hope you have a blast participating in Rule the Mob.”
