THE CHAINWENT LIVE.THE HOODWOKE UP.
5,555 hand-drawn residents created by Libyan digital artist Barudi.

Hood Boyz is a universe of 5,555 residents, each built from Barudi’s hand-drawn character language: heavy eyes, strange equipment, sharp uniforms, tired smiles, and the fluorescent light of the Signal.
THE MARKET HAS SUITS. THE HOOD HAS WITNESSES.
They appeared when the chain went live. Their records did not.
5,555 FACES. ONE DISTRICT.
Operators. Drifters. Clerks. Mutants. Witnesses. Every resident carries a different piece of the Hood.

DRAWN BY BARUDI
Hood Boyz begins with character. Every expression, visor, scar, uniform, machine, and crooked smile comes from an authored visual language developed by Barudi.
“Every resident begins as a decision, not a prompt.”
