Backstory
65 million years ago, an asteroid rocketed towards Earth, an extinction-level event destined to wipe out an entire species… But it missed. Left to thrive, the dinosaurs evolved into the JPunks, a 3D misfit group of characters who are now the dominant species in the metaverse. JPunks is a one-of-a-kind generative NFT collection built in Unreal Engine 5. This is an industry 1st NFT collection, utilizing state-of-the-art film-quality motion capture to bring your metaverse-ready NFTs to life.
The NFTs
The 7777 JPunk NFTs empower owners with their own 3d rigged models, including commercial IP rights, ready to integrate into compatible games and metaverses. These assets have all been built in Unreal Engine 5 by JPunk’s award-winning visual effects team utilizing their own 30,000 sq. ft state-of-the-art film studio with a Motion Capture stage. Its film-quality motion capture capabilities are an invaluable asset in ensuring the Jurassic Punks are ready for anything.
They have utilized Motion Capture with a film quality Xsens setup and have support for Facial Recognition using Apple’s AR kit. Owners can use their JPunkNFTs on their phones as a filter or even use them as an avatar in an online meeting. Funds from the Whitelist & Public sales and secondaries have been prioritized in the budget for achieving their roadmap goals, hitting every milestone they have planned for their community.
“We do not see this as just ‘another project’ but as the future of our careers and lives for many years to come, and we have the drive, experience, and determination to ensure that happens.” Kevin Docherty – Founder/MD, JPunks NFT.
Partnerships
An open metaverse for all has always been JPunks’ biggest goal, and this can only be achieved through collaboration.

They will be delivering an animated series and a live digital fashion show metaverse starring owners JPunks, utilizing their own film studio, blurring the lines between physical and digital.
