This adds to my regret on not picking up any packs during the initial drop. I had no idea about this FACINGS technology. Good article and I’ll be keeping my eye out for future releases.

Hey Albeit... you can still get packs in the initial drop! There are a little over 1600 still remaining. Check it out here: https://darkpinup.com/#/buy_packs

Didn't know about diegetic lighting, it really gives the photos a very unique look and feel. Lars' style is definitely one of a kind.

Ever since I listened to Lars, and I believe, it was on The Shift, that I fell in love with his art. I bought a few packs but I'm not ready to burn them just yet. I will caress and burn them with a glass of good red wine with diegetic ​light.

BTW, Lars is the creator, of Writer publication NFTs, including Shift Gold and Finney's arrival. The latter is being perpetuated with a 3d version on Minecraft.

Dark pinup is a great collection that find collectors not in search of aethers. Lars and vfxdesigner Schwartzbacca make a great team to bring this collection to life. The burn 🔥 technology created by Facing is amazing and it show up in your inventory so fast. Definitely better then other platforms that I have experienced on Wax. I am thinking this will be great tech for burning crypto Finney too 😀

This is a great collection Lars has made, Love the heavily tattooed models and Lars' particular lighting effects. My only concern with the collection was what next? Do owners just hodl forever as an appreciation to Lars or wait until his name is larger and manage to make some turnover out of them (inevitable he's super talented).

Lar's Dark pinup collection is an absolute beauty (both the concept and the models (; ). I remember joining the NFT ecosystem thinking that it would revolutionize how collectibles were marketed. I remember thinking how these "cards" are a game changer in the collectible world. Jump a few weeks later, I'm sitting in front of my computer buying random pieces of collectible art here and there after being introduced to WAX. At this time, I was thinking how WAX and AtomicHub was just one big art gallery. A bunch of artists posting great artwork that would not have been even within my radar if it wasn't for NFT's.

Jumping a couple months later, I stumble across these dark pinup collectibles. I was absolutely amazed at the photography that was done behind them. The sense of using natural lighting and candle lighting is absolutely genius. It makes the artwork almost come alive feel so realistic and candid. I strongly feel that Lars Kommienezuspadt absolutely killed the concept behind what he intended.

However, the artwork isn't the only genius concept behind his NFTs. It's the fact that he created a concept around burning assets to gain new and even rarer assets. The fact that the pack NFTs don't disappear after the initial pack burn and that you can use these assets for the burn event is brilliant. It keeps collectors constantly on their toes waiting for the new Ember packs, but also provides utility for those who were at the pack drop since Day 1. Definitely looking forward to what Lars has planned for the Ember packs and what his plans are for future drops! Congrats Lars with Dark pin up and hope for the best in the future!
