History

Canvas 71

Shape as he appears on Canvas 71's final form. He is adjacent to Peppino, a Tank Barrel and a Caterpillar.

Shape joined during Canvas 71 and started to make his art shortly after. His art is a pixelated version of his avatar, in the style of the Danganronpa Pixel Sprites.

Canvas 72

Shape missed the opening day of Canvas 72 so he could not plan anything large. Shape stuck to making smaller scale artworks since they were not very time consuming and can be done by himself. He started making something on Canvas 72 on September 2nd, 2023. During this canvas, he managed to reach both 1,000 and 5,000 pixel milestones.

Shape started to make his artwork on September 2nd 2023, in which he made made his avatar in the same style as the one in Canvas 71, but in a different outfit. When that was completed he spelt out his name next to it. After that he made his character smirking, and in sunglasses. The cluster also houses one of the larger Mini Shapes.

Mini Shapes

If Shape had pixels to spare, he would sometimes make miniature versions of his character. A total of eight are scattered across the canvas, including a larger one located amongst the Main Shape Cluster.

Hoodie Shape

Adjacent to his Daft Punk artwork, Shape put an artwork of his character in a calico color scheme hoodie.

ShapeCMD

Shape was made in the style of a Command Prompt window. He recieved help from other users as he put the template in the chat.

Other Artwork

As well as his own avatar, Shape has also made other artwork too.

Barbie and Ken
Barbie and Ken's Kenough Hoodie are neighboring each other.

On September 9th, 2023, Shape started to make the logo for the Barbie Movie. Shape did this because he was bored.

Two days later, on the 11th, Shape started to make the 'I am Kenough' message on Ken's Hoodie.

Daft Punk 'Random Access Memories'

Shape made the iconic helmets of the French electronic duo Daft Punk, after pointing out to Zinzamoure that it would be nice to have the helmets next to the larger Daft Punk wordmark. Zin gave Shape the template to make the helmets and Shape got to work.

Master Chief

Shape, with this assistance Brad and Nik21st, made an artwork of Master Chief lunging with an Energy Sword. Above him is the name 'John Halo' which is a recurring joke in the video game community where you put the name 'John' before the title of the game, one prominent example being John Darksoul.

Pink Camo Tank

Below Chromatic Empire's background and nearby to Master Chief, Shape spearheaded an operation to build a pink tank with the intent for people to put small faction logos onto it.

Canvas 73

Shape was ready for the reset for this canvas, so started placing on the Canvas' reset day. Him, with the Green Lattice, built a larger scale artwork, which currently stands as his largest artwork. During this canvas, he reached the 10,000 pixel milestone. By the end of this canvas he had exactly 16,000 All Time and 8,250 Canvas Pixels. The majority of Shape's time went to making Surprised Shape, so very little was done in variety art.

Within the Green Lattice, Shape and others placed the logo for the racing game TrackMania.

Metallica

Within close vicinity of each other, Shape put two arts relating to the American Thrash Metal Band, Metallica.

Metallica 'M'

Early on in the Canvas' life, Shape started to build the M from Metallica's logo. He finished it when the canvas was almost over.
