Max Pulso
Max Pulso’s NFT Journey
My name is Maxim, 30 years old. I was born and live in Izhevsk, Russia. I am an industrial designer by education, which helped me a lot to get into these non-fungible movements.
I've been in NFT since about February 2021. Got interested in it right after the release of a Brikspacer art called "Navalny". Then I found his NFT Bastards chat room, where I soaked up some information from some of the more pumped people in the movement. Almost immediately, I decided to get involved in a collab on the subject of ticking (verification) marketplace Rarible [https://rarible.com/verifcollab/items], where I met like-minded people, with whom to this day communicate and help each other. Honestly speaking, I had to learn on the fly as I was creating my own art (I've never done anything with 3D movies and we had to do animation). But thanks to that, that's who I am now. After completing this collaboration I got my first profit, I admit it was a lot of money for me. And, I realized that I had to move on. After that I had my first solo drops on the Rribble, but they did not bring any profit, no fun to create them. I took part in my first two NFT256 collaborations, but must honestly confess, it was quite boring and I went away to free floating.
A big boost in my development was given by a marketplace called Liquidifty. I have created a collection especially for them which is totally different from my previous works. And that collection was completely sold out. I upgraded my computer and was ready for new achievements.

The next collaboration was from the makers of the movie Major Thunder and our glorious NFT Bastards. Where we had to interpret the Plague Doctor mask to suit our own style and vision. Full sold-out on Binans. The guys' work is really decent. This collaboration was much easier for me than the very first one, because the main thing in life is not to stand still.
After that I went back to the free floating and decided to create my own collection. More specifically it is a collection of avatars. They all look the same, the distinguishing feature is the skin material, and the individuality is given by the different masks I modelled. As a bonus to the juicy visuals of each picture I attached possible gifts (canvases, t-shirts, 3D-printed accessories). The first series will consist of 30 artifacts, 8 of which have different gifts. The second series will consist of collaborations with artists from all over the world. I want to further develop this collection, and who knows, maybe it will grow into a brand.

In the process of creating the collection, TrapMonkie contacted me and offered to collaborate. For me it is an insanely valuable experience and the first collaboration with famous artists. You can see the collection here [https://opensea.io/collection/trapmonkie].
I'm insanely happy that this has all started to develop at a crazy pace and this past year is just the beginning of our journey. I don't work for 25,000 rubles drawing "I'm selling a garage" banners anymore. I do what I absolutely love to do and I don't plan to stop there.
