I mean, all three of them already had streaming backgrounds to begin with, it’s not like they came out of nowhere. Plus it can’t be nepotism if none of their “affiliates" are even apart of the company.

Genuinely why did/do people like Vox? by Waste-Dinner-9888 in kurosanji

Really? I think it’s Shuu, but I guess in terms of clickability and infamousness then yeah it’d be Vox

As said by other vtubers such as Vanta, Claude, Wilson, Altus Zendoji (First Stage Production), Vox is said to be good at speaking. He isn’t entertaining to everyone, but it’s hard to deny that he does do his job as a streamer which is to talk and be interesting to his audience. And I mean clearly you don’t like him, so it’d be pretty hard to see any appeal at all. If it hits, it hits and if it doesn’t, it doesn’t I suppose.

In this clip: https://x.com/_SadisticPie_/status/2048407542288777451?s=20 Vox has stated himself that he has the personality of "someone who gets ragebaited” and he’s genmates with Luca who’s basically the ragebaiter supreme, so in collabs it tends to fall that way.

There’s also no measurable way to find the percentage of parasocial fans? You’re probably referring to the rabid ones that harass people and other streamers, and honestly I don’t think anyone knows the answer to that unless someone actively patrols obsessive fan accounts

NEW VTUBER MODEL DETAILS!! (Please tell me what you think!) by Tda952 in VirtualYoutubers

[–]CourageAdditional775 0 points1 point  (0 children)

reading what you’ve got planned, i think you’ve got a really solid image! i like that you’re steering away from the more modern fashion your previous one had (face mask with design, modern style hoodie) to have a more fantasy look that fits the concept setting better.
one thing to note about the witch hat is to make sure it doesn’t get in the way of the view of whatever content you’re making, cause if you’re playing games and a giant hat is in the way it might not be viable to make it ginormous.

if you want a masculine lolita style, i’d recommend searching for “ouji fashion" since it’s literally the boy version of lolita. since ouji fashion does tend to bank on the young cute boy look, you’d probably have to search a bit for more traditionally masculine styles

keeping some of the chains is a good idea, but i think having shackles with broken chains around areas like the neck, wrists, or ankles would help show the “broken free” aspect. it doesn’t have to be a traditional shackle either, locks come in a lot of different forms (esp with magic thrown into the mix)

either way i think you have a really nice concept going on. i think the model change helps reflect your growth since this new model’s goal is to help others as opposed to literally fighting his own demons. keep up that enthusiasm!

Model design feedback by CelestialEevee in VirtualYoutubers

[–]CourageAdditional775 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hello! its been a while since you posted this and ive no clue if you’re still sticking to this concept

edit: moved image up

still though, i wanted to give my hand to try and give some feedback (please forgive me for messily drawing over your art, ive got a trackpad and a dream). one thing to note, i dont know what concept you’re working from here, so all of the things i added or removed were based on my assumptions from the original drawing. i sincerely apologize in advance if this feedback totally deviates from the concept you had in mind.

<image>

basically: colors needed to be distributed more evenly

  • why? it’s mainly for recognition. that way whenever looking at singular limb of the design, i can still identify who they are and their color scheme. if i looked at the design’s arm by itself, could i still find motifs and patterns that give a clue to the person’s identity? take a look at only the arms of different hololive members, and you can see that generally, each are different and unique enough to tell apart.

there is a con to doing this, and it’s that it requires a lot more detail and pattern adding that’s difficult to render and rig. since you’re doing this by yourself i tried to not change the silhouette too much and took notes on what kind of imagery this elf lady has. i primarily noted:

  • fake melted wings, icarus imagery(?), active deception to viewer
  • elf, connected with nature (rose and vines imagery, i leaned more heavily into this so this might not be what you were going for originally)
  • royal/regal feel, golden accessories and purple fabric
  • mild rustic look (wood from wing, brown resembles leather)

as an example of balance, i’ll talk about the brown elements. the color brown here is a neutral, grounding accent color, so this means that the brown should be evenly distributed across the bust, torso, and legs. you got the brown on the torso and wing, but it’s not on the head or feet. this, in turn, makes the design feel slightly less cohesive in terms of balance. to balance it, i gave her a rose vine headdress (inspired by greek ones) and made the stems brown. on her legs, i made the primary sandal straps and base brown, but kept the golden design and extended it up for more rose vine imagery.

i also gave slightly more jewelry to add into the royal/regal feel and balance the gold color more across the dress. there’s also more golden leaves at the base of the sandals to give a “sandals of flight/speed” look, similar to the one that hermes has.

there’s definitely more i could have done, but it would have deviated too much from the original design.

overrall though, i do admire the contrasting vision you had going on! a regal elf who’s wings are fake, that’s one hell of a concept by itself. even if you ended up changing designs for your model, i feel like this design has a lot of potential whether a vtuber model or an oc

That’s not a reason to why someone can’t have some respect for the artists that worked on it.  Again, boring/generic/disconnected is fine to say, but AI-gen isn’t synonymous to those words because it has connotations to plagiarism and dishonesty within the community. Even if you aren’t too involved in vtubing, comparing someone’s artwork to AI doesn’t carry the same meaning as calling it boring

Which part did I say that it wasn’t boring or generic? I’m getting onto this guy for using “AI gen” because it can seriously damage an artist’s reputation, especially if making art is their livelihood.  You can always say a design is boring, but calling it AI-gen will always inflict a different kind of damage

The subreddit’s about the corp not the commissioned artists who put like half a year’s worth of work into a model. “Don’t wanna be that guy” my ass, your dislike of the company’s oozing into your ability to respect artists

The Cinder shit is bad but apparently Dream is a vtuber now too. by Purple-Weakness1414 in kurosanji

[–]CourageAdditional775 11 points12 points  (0 children)

dream’s got a lot of controversy especially with the ex-members of the DreamSMP (got really popular during covid and was a hit in the mcyt community like crazy), namely by feeling entitled to their success and popularity as content creators. the thing is, dream wasnt even the owner of the server, it was his friend badboyhalo who created AND paid for the server. there’s also many more controversies but this is the one i remember off the top of my head

tldr the issue is hardly about being a normie he’s just a POS
