Chimpers

we're going on a !chimpin adventure

The Chimpers were mysteriously born through scientific experiments that went unnoticed by the rest of the populace…
‍
The apes toiled with the humans for control for decades, but eventually, they were able to reclaim their land and push the humans out forever. But before they WERE vanquished, the humans had to discard the evidence of what they created. They fired the Chimpers DNA into the voids of space, hoping that their creation would never see the light of day.

However, destiny would not allow it. Centuries passed and new worlds forged. The Chimpers extended across the galaxies, species were formed, and a new age began.

With 100 Genesis Chimpers first inhabiting the world, now, 5,555 Chimpers exist across the intergalactic warp. A world of warriors, gods, demons, mages, AND space travellers standing at the cusp of an empire at the brink of war.

Soon, the concepts of time and space will no longer separate you from them. The Chimpverse awaits you!

it's time to bring a new wave of pixel art to the scene...
‍

NOT ONLY ARE THE CHIMPERS A GROUND-BREAKING CHARACTER COLLECTION BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE RENOWNED PIXEL ARTIST TIMPERS, THEY ARE ALSO THE FOCUS OF A BRAND NEW WEB 3 ADVENTURE STORY FILLED WITH INCREDIBLE ART AND BREATHTAKING LORE.

Since we began our journey, we have considered every step with the community at the forefront of our minds, because, without them, there is no adventure. We have sought to foster these connections, and we take great pride in the inclusive and supportive core that we have built along the way.

AS A CHIMPERS HOLDER, YOU WILL BE JOINING US ON AN EPIC ADVENTURE. WE WILL QUEST, UNCOVER THE MYSTERIES OF THE CHIMPVERSE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE WILL UNITE TO CREATE A UNIVERSE THAT WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR DECADES TO COME.

OUR ETHOS HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO UNDER PROMISE AND OVERDELIVER, PROVIDING VALUE TO OUR COLLECTORS THROUGH MYSTERY, SURPRISE AND REWARD. AS A TEAM WE ARE DRIVEN TO DELIGHT OUR COLLECTORS AND YOU CAN EXPECT MORE OF THE SAME AS WE JOURNEY THROUGH OUR NEXT ADVENTURE AND BUILD OUR MULTIMEDIA BRAND.

HEY CHIMP, I’M TIMPERS! IN 2014 I VENTURED INTO GRAPHIC DESIGN USING PHOTOSHOP TO CREATE DESIGNS FOR SOCIAL MEDIA. AS I LEARNED MORE, I STARTED A YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS I CREATED HUNDREDS OF TUTORIALS ON HOW TO USE PHOTOSHOP WHILST BUILDING A LARGE COMMUNITY OF 40,000 SUBSCRIBERS! DURING MY TIME AT UNI I WAS EXPOSED TO MANY DIFFERENT STYLES OF ART AND ANIMATION, BUT OUT OF EVERYTHING I CONNECTED THE MOST WITH PIXEL ART. I GREW UP PLAYING POKÉMON AND MY MAIN SOURCE OF INSPIRATION DERIVES FROM RETRO PIXEL-BASED GAMES AND ANIME FILMS. AT ITS MOST BASIC LEVEL, PIXEL ART IS SIMPLE AND ACCESSIBLE, BUT IT ALSO HAS HUGE DEPTH AND MANY VARIATIONS, I AM FOREVER LEARNING.‍

‍WHEN I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE NFT WORLD, IT WASN’T LONG BEFORE I BEGAN FORMING NEW CONNECTIONS. I SOLD MY FIRST 1/1 IN FEBRUARY 2021 ON FOUNDATION AND FROM THERE EVERYTHING CHANGED. I HAVE SINCE WORKED WITH RTFKT, KOLECTIV, INTERLEAVE, AND HAD MY ARTWORK FEATURED IN THE BAYC X ROLLING STONE ZINE, AS WELL AS WORKING AS ONE OF THE ARTISTS ON THE ICONIC NOUNS DAO PROJECT. I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH THE CHANCE TO LET MY CREATIVITY RUN WILD AND I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY. I HAVE CREATED MY OWN COLLECTIONS INCLUDING TBAC, A DERIVATIVE STORY ABOUT THE BAYC APES. IN ADDITION TO THIS, I HAVE CREATED MY OWN CHARACTER COLLECTION, starting with 100 Genesis Chimpers AND NOW A 5,555 GENERATIVE COLLECTION NAMED CHIMPERS! I AM BEYOND BLOWN AWAY WITH THE AMAZING SUPPORT FROM THE COMMUNITY, THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING, AND I CAN'T WAIT TO BUILD THE CHIMPVERSE BY YOUR SIDE!

It all began with The Boring Ape Chronicles.
‍

THE QUEST FOR THE DIAMOND FLEECE IS THE GENESIS SERIES OF TBAC, A COMMUNITY DRIVEN COLLECTION MADE UP OF 6 INTERCONNECTED EPISODES Combining Timper's art with Insight's story telling.

THE MONOTONOUS APES EMBARK ON A THRILLING JOURNEY, IN A WORLD PREVIOUSLY RAVAGED BY FACTION AND DIVIDE. THEY ARE FORCED TO COME TOGETHER ON A QUEST IN SEARCH OF THE SACRED DIAMOND FLEECE ARTIFACT.

In the final episode the apes reach the portal that takes them to the Chimpverse.
