100 DAYS OF NOUNS (Coloring Book Series)
Proposal by Messhup, submit on-chain by Noun 22
Why Coloring Books?
- It expands the current crypto native zone to a more mainstream audience.
- All characters incentivize exploration, curiosity, or time for playing and learning.
- Foster creativity and well being, improve focus and relieve stress.
- Can create family bonding time if the activity is shared with relatives.
- It makes co-creators, people who paint them will make their own version of the page.
- Could prepare and draw the attention of the next generation of artists who want to make spin-offs based on Nouns.
A Coloring book series.
- 30 days of Nouns (round 1, 2, 3).
- 100 days of Nouns, a fourth book bundling up the past 3 versions plus the remaining nouns and bonus pages between all of them to divide the whole series inside the book and keep it organized.
- 100 unique hand-drawn pages depicting the life of each Noun.
30 days of Nouns consists of 30 hand-drawn “mandalas” for a coloring book including 30 nouns per book plus a couple of bonus pages that can be painted as well. Additionally, each book will explain what NounsDAO is, what’s the main purpose of the community and the goal of the organization.
Coloring pages examples: These pages are finalized and they are a true copy from the books.
All pages are going to be free to download (high resolution .jpg and/or PDF format) from the main site of the collection I’m working on (Nounsense.wtf)
Physical Books:
A physical book will be developed to be printed on demand through Amazon and expand even further the public of Nouns. These physical books will be designed and packaged for convenience purposes (it could be gifted to friends and/or family members around the world, avoiding the hassle of print all the pages and dealing with logistics by themselves)
Estimated delivery time:
The book cover of the first book (Round 1) is already finished alongside its 30 pages, but I’m polishing small details like formatting and editing.
I’m currently developing the second round of the series (book 2).
The first book will be published at the end of January like I mentioned in Discourse (Although I’m highly tempted to use February 2nd as a special date to publish it), but it could be discussed with Nouners/Nounders.
Publishing schedule
Funds Requested
The total amount for the project is 22ETH
- 11 ETH up-front
- 11 ETH when the fourth book is finished and published.
Every book will require 6.5ETH (Except the 100 pages version: 2.5ETH) 0.2ETH per coloring page + 0.4ETH for the cover and bonus pages. 0.1ETH for design, formatting and editing.
This proposal also includes a 0.13 ETH gas reimbursement for submitting the on-chain proposal.
Who’s Messhup?
I’m a Graphic Designer / Illustrator. I’ve collaborated with brands like Adidas UK, ExxonMobil, Penguin Random House, and Goliath Games in the past 6 years of my career. I’ve collaborated with amazing people in web3 like Noadz , CreatureToadz and of course NounsDAO.
About my collaboration with Nouns:
I’ve developed 10 coloring pages for NounsDAO under the small grants and retrofunding pool. After the 10th page, NounsDAO made a coloring contest where everyone had the opportunity to paint and send multiple entries. The contest was a huge success and there were a lot of people who even recruited family members to join the party.

Nouns Coloring Book Contest Results
At last but not least, I have to thank Noun22 for all the amazing support, help and guidance on this since the beginning! Without him this whole project couldn’t be done. I’m always open to community feedback, thanks for taking the time reading this.
