A couple different 3D printed objects have been sculpted and are getting prepared to be print once the printer starts churning them out.

Some future projects have been sculpted for a chess board were planning to release with 12 characters apart  of the lore & future comic book series.

Tie dye socks are coming sometime this fall hopefully! Purchasing what is needed to start creating them today!

8-10 characters have been created / designed. A total of 12 will be made, along with neutral characters, pets, mechs, and a lot more!

Games are being planned in the future so the foundation of the store, the island, its layout is important for the future game. Items/drugs/ and stuff you will read about in the lore/comics will eventually make its way into the games in the future.

Probably not this month for a new shirt design, we were planning a pattern, but funds have been low so it may not be possible till next month unfortunately!

Julys focus will be on finishing the characters, getting the phone/tablet holder ready for shipping. Getting the socks prepared for next month, and writing a lot of the lore!

We also designed a cup/cup coaster/straw. That will be a much future project that will be included hopefully with the first comic book in the future. Before that will come the collapsible chess board and the 3d characters!.

Some updates what has been done over the past few weeks. We created a Cardano pool. Where you can stake your crypto currency Cardano with SKULL our pool we run.

You can also now by products with Cardano and other crypto currencies. The boss man Charles Hoshkinson gave us permission to use the Cardano logo on shirts. So we will be sending a few shirts out his way to Colorado soon.

We made our first NFT which is a spinning 3D toilet. The goal eventually is to release the entire set on the Cardano blockchain once NFT markets come around the Alonzo era. Check our Instagram for more videos, and different things we've made.

Our newest design is the Green skull / video game. We also recently released a inverted version of it. There will be matching shorts, maybe 2 different designs to go with it for a complete outfit!

In the near future we will be manufacturing our clothes! Soon no more prints everything will be done in house! There is still a lot of work to get to that point.

Other things we are working on, 3D printer is still being put together, so expect some  3D printed trinkets to be sold soon! Stuff animals, official 3D model and a lot more is on the horizon. Including photoshoots and skits! And maybe even a life size 3D prop! 

Oh and if you check our Instagram we released a AR filter you can try out. Expect a lot more AR filters in the future.

Finally the 4th page of lore will finally be released this month! And hopefully a 5th page in May. There is a lot of characters and more information about the island that is slowly bubbling to the surface!

Well just a short blog for now, make sure you subscribe to our newsletter to keep up to date!~

Anti.biz will also be auctioning/raffling a table top arcade machine, when that will be finished will be announced in the near future look for it around summer 2021!

We are planning our first official product around April 2021, it should be a baseball jersey, should look very cool with a lot of embroidered touches!

Were also planning a retro gaming box with a 3D printed case. The case will either be engraved with our logo or stenciled with paint. Most likely engraved, which ever looks the best. The gaming box will run on a Raspberry Pi 4 gig $55 using a 256 g microSD $35, $8 power cable, $5 micro hdmi cable $103. Not exactly sure the final cost with the 3D printed case depending on time/materials will determine the final price. The price will also incorporate alittle extra to help with any support cost needed to help people incase they run into a problem. But everything should run out of the box. 

Basically to get the gaming box/computer to work you would have to download a torrent and flash the file using Balena Etcher to the microSD, so a microSD card reader will be required. Those will be sold as an extra incase you have one you won't need to buy it.

There is a lot planned for the future. Planning to make a face rigged 3D model of Dii Casses to use for making promotional videos, streaming, etc. And further into the future a prop will be made to make skits and do photoshoots.

Right now there is a fish tank being made out of a old Apple green iMac to use with promoting some of the toys and 3D printed stuff that is made. From perler bead creations, to things that maybe manufactured.

 We are mirroring our videos to our Lbry/Odysee account @anti.biz , Youtube @antibiz and Tik Tok @anti.biz just for more exposure of our content once the content starts getting better.

 One thing that will be looked into is a Patreon account, so that people that want to help support us to help us grow faster can. We have the Body Island Beach Club, so maybe just increase the tier levels to provide more benefits. As a lot of help is needed to really start pumping out content. Theres a lot of ideas that want to get made, which cost money and time. Will get there, just dont know how long it will take. The more support the better.

Also we just added our site to the BRAVE content creators. So if you use Brave browser you can tip or support us through there. Thanks!

We still want to make our first Official Cut & Sew product when that is going to happen depends on when the pocket logo design is finished and when that gets trademarked. We also need a hang tag design and that slogan needs to be trademarked. Currently "8-BITS OF STRING" is trademarked. But there is a secondary slogan that we havent trademarked yet.

A comic book is in the future for Anti.biz as well. It will follow the adventures of DII CASSES. Its probably going to take a few months to save up money to make that happen. Mostly for the illustration cost, printing cost, etc. But I think it will be well worth it. The comic book wont be in pixel art, so you will get to see a different side to the Anti.biz universe. I plan to print off a first run of 1,000 copies These copies may ship with the first official product if I can figure out away to ship them both safely. There are many products coming in the future, like stuff animals, toys, and other unexpected products. First we need to focus on getting some clothes out to yall. Theres going to be some affiliate banners on the website that will help us pay for the website and make new products. All the money coming into the business will be used to just make more cool stuff and grow this corner of the interwebs.

Hopefully some people dig what we are trying to create here. We believe its a fun story, with cool characters, and a good purpose overall. Bringing affordable high fashion clothing to the masses!

Were planning to do a couple different sticker packs to hopefully help raise money to make really nice clothes to sell. So if  your wondering why the stickers seem so pricey its to help us out. Everything that is holding us back right now is money. So there will be a couple Printful printed shirts that cost us nothing to make to help fund the business and better and more complicated products!

We appreciate any support we get while we try to create and build this from scratch. Many people will not get what were trying to do, but we hope a few get how cool this can become with alittle bit of support and spreading the word!

I been banging my head against the wall trying to get the site integrated into Amazon, Walmart, and Facebook. They all have their problems working with Shopify and its definitely a headache.

Hopefully by the end of the month we will have the new designs done. Working on the pocket logo still which is the goal for the business this month is to get that done.The 2-3 month goal is to find a manufacturer overseas to start making and shipping our products direct. I know the first shirts/designs which are more summer styles. So as summer is almost over I am trying to figure out everything in the winter for spring/summer release.

But in the mean time there will be a couple designs on the site. I am also looking at doing stuff animals/plushies for one of the 3 main characters (possibly a 4th character but its more of inanimate object)

The 3 main characters of Anti.biz

Dii Casses (main character skeleton)

Proxy (Dii's time traveling parrot)

J-N4

The main Iconography of the brand is :

Diamonds

Skeleton with middle fingers wearing diamond glasses

Backwards Z with a line through it

Hypnotizing Toilet

Mechanical Parrot

Squids

The website is following a strict 13 color palette which is purple/grape inspired. But the biggest news is that this palette doesnt convert to CMYK well from RGB. So I found a palette called FIREBRANDX NES classic palette which is 56 colors that convert perfectly to CMYK. So all future clothing designs will be restricted to these 56 colors. I think its a bit too difficult to stick to the 13 colors. But for all the artwork on the website will be restricted to this 13 color palette. But its not set in stone. The colors could be flipped at any moment. So expect different colored designs, it just makes things easier trying to force this grape aesthetic.

Got a ton of ideas for products I want to create for Anti.biz its mostly just a matter of money holding me back at the moment.

The new designs that will be worked on next week. Waiting on my pixel artist in Brazil whos always working to have time for me.

I added a bunch of old designs to the Anti.biz Instagram @anti.biz but those will be taken down when the new designs are done to unify the look. I am going to try writing the 3rd page of lore about "Dii Casses."

I plan to add the Life of Cereal lore soon, I been procrastinating on writing that for awhile.

The slogan 8-BITS OF STRING has been officially trademarked. I cant remember when I thought of that slogan, maybe back in fall. But that is the official slogan of Anti.biz. There will be 1 more slogan that will be used on the hang tag exclusively that goes with the branding. It was a rap lyric from one of my friends here in Philadelphia that I really liked that he gave me permission to use.

I am still getting hang tag designs made, haven't decided on one that will be the final one I will use.

I will need a pocket logo trademark and hang tag trademark before I start selling again. The plan is a complex product. But if money becomes tight I will do a T-shirt. I had some different ideas for some cool shirts. I also have some ideas for doing fabric patterns, or knitted illustrations.

I want to do a metallic Nylon jacket in a lavender and mauve accents. Similar to hoody style. But I haven't decided if its going to be a pull over, or a zipup or half zip.

I am also contemplating doing vinyl heat press on nylon, but I think it will be too much possibly and take away from the design. I am still not 100% sure if all my designs will be pixel based. I think I kind of need to stay that route so I don't confuse the customer early on with too many conflicting art styles. But there is this cool rainbow anodized 3D model effect that I really want to do on a shirt. Its very vaporwavish.

Almost forgot that Facebook and Instagram gave me the usernames @Anti.biz so you can find us there. Twitter of course sucks and won't make that happen.

The goals for this month is to finalize the pocket logo and get some more hang tag designs. And figure out what the first drop is going to be. Theres a lot I want to make to add with the first drop like stickers/plush doll (Pr0xy the time traveling parrot plush, or Cereal the futuristic hacker, or maybe Plague the squid king)

Lots of work to be done before the shirt is ready. Still trying to figure out the pocket logo which has been a pain of hundreds of iterations and lots of money loss to get everything perfect the way I want it.

Till then stay tuned for the first drop and more updates!

The characters that I am planning to incorporate into the chess board right now are:

King= Dii Casses(main skeleton hacker dude), Queen= J-N4 Bishop=Pr0xy 

Of course the main characters are Dii Casses and J-N4. So they will be the ones on the banner. Soon I will write the lore for a day in the life of Dii Casses which will explain many of the things he does in his every day life. Since he sends Proxy back to the 90s a lot he is obsessed with stuff from the 90. Like arcade machines, comic books, power glove and floppy disk. So these are the main iconography you will see surrounding Dii.

Fast forward another couple months of thinking and we have a new design and a completely new art direction! 

Thanks to https://www.fiverr.com/diconcilio this guy really did a great job on the logo. I purchased from many buyers and none of them were able to create something that I absolutely loved. We went back and forth with many revisions till we got to this final logo that you currently see on the website.

Now I'm in the process of creating all the other elements needed for the brand. I have many ideas and am trying to create my own little world to live in. I guess kind of like Marvel Universe but for a clothing brand/do it all kind of business.

There's more characters to the brand I will be introducing the first being the skeleton "Dii Casses" sidekick Pr0xy who is a time traveling parrot. They will all have hacker type names. The characters at this point are not really necessary. Because their all basically skeletons fighting squids and all the women are blow up dolls. Its a messed up future for sure. I don't exactly know how they keep procreating.

Theres going to be a cool new banner for the website and all the social media accounts that is inspired from the ending of my favorite movie Hackers. But instead of flashing the words "Crash and Burn" it will say "8-BITS OF STRING".

This will be our official slogan. We also have another slogan on our hang tag. Its a lyric from my friend Craterface/DMYCF rap lyrics that he said I could use and trademark. Check him out on Instagram or Spotify @craterfaceless Craterface
