Shiba Inu has released the first concept art of another hub in SHIB: the Metaverse (Dune), according to a new announcement from the SHIB’s Metaverse development posted on the network’s blog. Dune is the newest hub in the SHIB: the Metaverse hubs.

The SHIB Metaverse development team remarked that it released the Dune concept art to share the best reference points that align with the creative aspect and outlook of the hub.

All the concept artworks for SHIB’s metaverse hubs are usually displayed in black and white images, and the Dunes hub is no exception. The SHIB team notes that the black and white images will enable users to have a feel of the integral role the hub will play in the Metaverse.

In the blog post for the Dune announcement, Shiba Inu explained that “abstract artwork such as black and white sketches connotes a powerful, strong and physical potential.”

The Dune design inspiration

According to the announcement, several natural architectural masterpieces inspired the Dunes design concept artwork. Such locations include the Sahara Desert; the Sand Dune national park in Colorado, US; Namibia’s Sossusvlei Park; the Pyramids, Egypt and Dubai city (UAE).

The development team also shared its inspiration source for the flora in the Dunes hub. The sources were Thorns, Welwitschia, Twigs, Nara Melons, Bushel, Camel Thorn Tree, and Twigs. According to the team, Elephants, Dune scorpions, Giraffes, Cheetahs, and Sidewinder Snakes inspired the Dune’s Fauna.

Shiba Inu also shared how landowners in the Dune hub will feel. It said, “imagine yourself looking at wind-shaped mounds of sand, with more smooth sand particles adding to the already available mounds of sand. At the same time, you’re feeling a heat sensation.”

Then, when a closer look reveals a unique oasis that is very extensive and adequately designed. It is similar to a modern, adventurous place with cooling waters and lots of shiny architecture.

Shiba Inu also revealed that it would be hosting a fireside chat on Thursday, October 27, by 8 pm EST. The chat will take place on the official shibtoken discord channel, and potential Dune hub landowners can learn more about it and other details of the dog-themed project.

Shiba Inu and its Metaverse

Releasing a concept artwork for SHIB Metaverse’s Dune hub isn’t a first. SHIB: the Metaverse had previously released its first concept artworks for its other hubs, such as rocket Pond, Canyon, and WAGMI Temple.

SHIB’s Metaverse project is one way Shiba Inu proves that there is more to this cryptocurrency project than being a memecoin. Hence, the team is making efforts to ensure the project’s short- and long-term success.

For instance, it has hired some of the leading experts in the entertainment industry to promote the SHIB: the Metaverse project. Nevertheless, the good news has yet to impact SHIB’s price positively. It is down 0.48 percent in the last 24 hours and trades at $0.000010.
