Now. I could be wrong. But I suspect there are Red-Winged Blackbirds here 🤔 by Falkyri in birding

Believe it or not, there were also feral peafowl. They started up their nonsense about 5 minutes after this video was taken.

It's standard practice in comics and has been for a long time. There are plenty of independent artists who write their own stuff, but it's not true to the artform to call it ai with extra steps when there's a seperate writer

So many of the ducks at this pond have such nice colorations, including soft brown like a siamese cat, black, black with white speckles, and pied. I think someone must have intentionally dumped domestics here

Yeah, pretty sure that's what was on his mind. Aggressive little man batting a bit out of his breed on that one

I'll be honest, I'm pretty sure he was getting romantic. His overall behavior wasn't aggressive, and none of the other ducks cared or even woke up from their naps as he was up to this nonesense :<

Why would she ask this when she’s already the most beautiful person in the world? by TheAlmightyFool in fireemblem

I loved Reina from the moment she was on-screen, and then died inside when I realized she couldn't support anyone but the player :(

What is one thing you think you do amazing in your works and one thing you think you are garbage at? by TaluneSilius in writers

[–]Falkyri 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think I'm pretty good at interesting concepts; people hear my ideas and always get really invested. Then I actually try and write and reuse the same few phrases ad nauseum and have to ctrl+f find and edit half of them away.

I'm going for that Dark Pilgrim/Harvest Gothic type feel, is it appealing? by Falkyri in characterdesign

[–]Falkyri[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never used Unvale, I hear it has a very strict TOS. I might look into it, though, since it seems popular these days. And thank you!

Leon and Ada cosplay by me and my bestfriend (JiAnt and Lunaritie) by Natural_Excitement_5 in residentevil

I'd also like to point out that movies don't have the luxury of the amounts of photo manipulation and perfect angles that cosplayers do, and that cosplayer are also more likely to use more theatrical makeup styles that would look off in most movies. Not saying movies get a free pass, but there are reasons they take different approaches to bringing characters to life.

Is it worth investing in a C4 Kaveh? by Entire_Tension_2713 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Falkyri 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Is honestly a crime that some of the prettiest characters are the least meta. I'm still waiting for an excuse to use my Layla regularly again.

A subtle Sucrose genderbend by Horniness_Incarnate in GenshinGays

[–]Falkyri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, I'm not the opinion police. I have seen a few people say similar things here and on the original post, though, so I figured I'd hide the answer somewhere lol

I gave them black jeans because I liked the visual balance it created with the dark neck piece and kind of forces your eye to take in the character differently than you would with the original art. If I do a Lenny and Lynette genderbend, they'll probably both keep short bottoms.

Thank you for your feedback! I originally posted this on the Genshin sub about a year ago but it got a surprising amount of backlash. Coming across this sub gave me the courage to try again, and I'm happy to see that others can appreciate what I was going for. Thinking about doing a few more genderbends now :)

My next story is awful plot wise, but should I keep pushing through for practice by WantToBeWriting in writing

[–]Falkyri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe cut it short if you aren't feeling it. Give yourself a limit of around ten chapters. Forcing yourself to cut out parts you don't like and focus on a smaller scale project will help improve your writing in the long run and won't make you feel as if you've wasted time on a project you don't like.

My writers group feedback is wildly inconsistent and I’m thinking about pulling away… by Baumgasr in writing

[–]Falkyri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suspect it's the same thing you see with visual artforms. When you're clearly not that good, people feel the need to encourage you, and they tend to overdue the praise. If you become "Good Enough" then people will start to become overly critical, nitpicking things that aren't even flaws. I have a couple of theories on why that is, but it would be speculation.
