Element4ls was a Solana-based NFT project built around a unique sci-fi world of robotic guardians infused with the four elemental forces. Combining high-end 3D art with blockchain culture, the project offered collectors a visually rich, cinematic, and lore-driven experience.
We partnered with the creators to develop the full visual identity of the project—from 3D trailers and character design to world-building and the complete NFT collection.
We’ve produced the official announcement trailer for the Element4ls NFT collection—a cinematic sci-fi reveal introducing the characters aboard their spaceship as they prepare for launch on the Solana blockchain.
In collaboration with Rick Speets (Studio Speets), who contributed several key shots and renders, we handled the full editing, 3D modelling, animation, lighting, and post-production. The trailer blends deep-space visuals with vibrant character showcases, establishing the futuristic identity of the Element4ls universe.
The campaign generated strong engagement, reaching over 100,000 views across social media, and played a key role in building hype for the Solana-based project.
We created the entire Element4ls NFT collection from the ground up. Each character was designed in full 3D and built using 70+ handcrafted traits — including masks, staffs, armour sets, skins, emblems, materials, lighting setups, and elemental effects.
With this trait library, the collection offered millions of possible combinations. To prepare the project for a generative mint on Solana, we structured and organised all assets into layered Photoshop files, enabling the developer to use Metaplex Candy Machine to automatically generate all final NFT pieces.
From metallic guardians to energy-infused elemental robots, every NFT was crafted with precision as a collectible CGI artwork—fully optimized for Solana’s NFT ecosystem.
This collection established the full visual identity of the project and set a new benchmark for art-driven NFT drops on the Solana network.
We created a second 3D animation to update the community after the mint was delayed, turning the setback into part of the Element4ls storyline.
A technical failure destroys the Element4ls’ ship, leading to a crash on Earth. Many units are lost, while a small group survives and is rescued by the Legion. The remaining 5,550 Element4ls are still on their way, setting the stage for the new mint date.
We handled the full production — modelling, animation, FX, lighting, and editing — delivering a cinematic update that kept the community engaged and expanded the project’s lore.
We created the official cover art for Element4ls: The Arrival, the sci-fi story written by Justin Sloan. The book follows the first Element4ls ship arriving on Earth, the chaos of their unexpected crash, and humanity’s first contact with these elemental robotic beings.
Our artwork brings the story’s central elements together: the A-14 scout ship, the surviving Element4ls, the human protagonist Mason with his dog Fang, and the four elemental powers that define their universe. Using 3D rendering and digital illustration, we designed a cinematic composition that captures the tension, mystery, and scale of the story while staying true to the visual identity of the Element4ls NFT collection.
For key voices in the crypto, NFT, and Solana communities, we created a series of Honorary Element4l NFTs—custom 3D characters styled specifically for well-known influencers on X (Twitter).
Each piece blends their personal identity, aesthetic, or online persona with the signature sci-fi Element4ls design language.
From unique traits and props to bespoke materials and lighting setups, every honorary NFT was built from scratch to feel like a natural extension of the Element4ls universe while still being instantly recognizable to each influencer’s audience.
These custom characters became part of the project’s marketing push, helping boost engagement, expand reach, and reinforce the visual identity of the Element4ls brand across social platforms.
