In a digital world where perfection is the only standard, the Uglys celebrate the charm of imperfection. Resulting from weeks of experimentation with artificial intelligence, each of the 4000 NFT is a unique creation. These captivating characters reinvent the notion of beauty and invite us to rediscover aesthetics in the unexpected and the imperfect.

The new
faces of
aesthetics

Their textures are incomplete, poorly applied,
distorted by strange artifacts. Their skin appears
to melt or shimmer, their surfaces blurred and
rough where they should be smooth.

Abandoned and deemed ugly, these characters
have never made it to the virtual stage.

These AI-generated creations deserve to emerge
from obscurity and finally exist in all their
imperfect aesthetic glory.

The Quest
for the
Imperfect
Algorithm.

The Uglys are the result of an elaborate artificial intelligence process. After experimenting with bugs, artifacts, and other imperfections, each NFT is born from a complex combination of dozens of parameters, blending algorithms and artistic styles. The prompts have been meticulously fine-tuned to ensure uniqueness, and random conditions have been applied to guarantee the distinctiveness of each piece.

Another challenge was to create a cohesive collection with consistent similarities. But beyond the technical aspect, the true joy lies in discovering each generated character. Every creation feels like the result of a happy accident, inviting exploration. Each Ugly reveals a unique emotion and charm, adding a playful and surprising dimension to this creative process.

Charm of the Ugly is lovingly crafted in France.

Our roadmap

Phase 1 - End of 2024

The production of Charm of the Ugly characters has already begun and will soon be completed. Afterward, a thorough quality check and verification of each of the 4,000 NFTs will take place.

In the meantime, we will set up various discussion channels and social media platforms to engage with the community.

The minting process will occur on the Ethereum blockchain, and the sale will happen in two phases:

Presale (wl) : 0.003 ETH

Date : January 2025

Public sale : 0.007 ETH

Phase 2 - 2025

Our primary mission is to build a strong, lasting community and ensure the Charm of the Ugly collection stands the test of time.

We have various ideas in mind, like creating a book with some uglys, designing a NFT companion for your uglys, or even exploring collaborations with other artists and brands.

While nothing is set in stone yet, we’ll gradually bring these ideas to life, focusing on long-term project actively engaging with our community.
