Hello, all Bob (Tigerbob) hunters. Today we are going to do a roaring summary of the upcoming Tigerbob NFT (Minting on the 28th of May).

### Introduction

*   Tigerbob is a 1000-piece NFT project from [PROOF](https://twitter.com/proof_xyz) artist [Gossamer Rozen](https://twitter.com/grelysian).
    
*   Here is what the mint of the Tigerbob NFTs get you ([roadmap](https://tigerbob.io/roadmap) items):
    
    *   → Fashion and merchandise
        
    *   → Comics
        
    *   → Metaverse and gaming compatibility
        
    *   → Fine Art → Rumored to be a full-body Tigerbob down the line ;)

A Wild Tigerbob (By: Gossamer Rozen)

*   Tigerbob aims to be a pixel art PFP-type project.
    
*   Tigerbob is taking an interesting route by making the rest of the NFT (the body) available post-mint (Roadmap item)
    
*   My thoughts are that it will be an interesting project as the artist is a PROOF artist, along with this the art is unique and the small collection size will make a very tight-knit community.
    

### Traction / Art

*   As Grossamers [background](https://tigerbob.io/about) shows, they have a lot of art experience in fact “Gossamer has been creating work professionally since 2008.“.
    
*   The TIigerbob [Twitter](https://twitter.com/tigerbobnft) also has ~150k followers.
    
*   Just from this traction so far I’m getting a vibe that these may play out as the previous PROOF grails and other small supply PFP projects.

### Team

*   Tigerbob is founded by [Gossamer Elysian Farris](https://twitter.com/grelysian), [Richard Powazynski](https://twitter.com/rpowazynski), [Matthew Wall](https://twitter.com/mattwall7), and [Justin Goldberg](https://twitter.com/justthego)
    
*   For their NFT drop, the art will be done by [Gossamer Elysian Farris](https://twitter.com/grelysian) who, as previously mentioned, is a [PROOF](https://twitter.com/proof_xyz) artist and has been an artist since 2008.
    
*   By my analysis, this team is more than capable to lead Tigerbob to be a successful PFP project.
    

### Future Landscape

*   After Tigerbob mints out the team plans to allocate a % of funds to the project, the team, and 10% will go to charity. More info on this is below! On top of this, they will also start enacting their [roadmap](https://tigerbob.io/roadmap).
    

### Use of funds

*   Tigerbob plans to mint 1000k NFTs at a price of .25e each netting the team 250e ($712637 USD) roughly. Team members also will receive 1 free tigerbob mint and will be allow-listed for 2 additional tigerbob. Lastly, the proceeds from the mint will be split across the team + the charity, more info on that [here](https://tigerbob.io/charity).
    
*   After the mint, it is safe to assume the Tigerbob team will then use the funds to further enact their prior stated [roadmap](https://tigerbob.io/roadmap).
    

### Criticism

*   In closing, I like the Tigerbob art, the artist, and the 10% charity donation. I am however skeptical about the mint profit break down → 50% of the mint proceeds go to the Artist and 12.5% of the 50% go to further developing the project or roughly 15.5e or less. Info [here](https://tigerbob.io/finance).
    
*   While this is approximately $42k USD it does not leave the project with much capital to use to fund further endeavors. However, 5% of secondary royalties will go to the artist which could be assumed to also be going towards the project as well. Info [here](https://tigerbob.io/finance).
    
*   Lastly, those who mint DO NOT get full rights to the art. More on that [here](https://tigerbob.io/legal).
    
*   **So, Is It Cool?…… YES!**
