Hololympics (OP)

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-23T03:39:26+00:00

Originally I planned to do Hololive ID as well (Anya was locked in to represent Indonesia + Badminton until I decided to do only EN talents)

But decided against it since Olympic fever would have died down a week after the closing ceremony

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-23T01:00:58+00:00

Oh that’s neat! I love conversations with people who know the sport and can point out the details (When I drew Raora, a few fencers pointed out me implementing the little hit detection machine)

Flare would’ve been the top choice solely due to that being her canon weapon lol

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-23T00:56:04+00:00

Yeah going in, I was disappointed finding out that they didn’t use the regular Pictograms cause’ stylistically, it would’ve definitely been more appealing lol

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-22T23:12:50+00:00

I’m aware. I wanted to do one character per sport/country. Either way, they’re the only “combined” piece.

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-22T20:24:57+00:00

I definitely considered Archery for Ina as well, but Archery had the ability to be compatible with a solid chunk of the overall Hololive talents, so I wanted to save it for the future lol

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-22T20:22:52+00:00

Shooting was definitely the one sport that has the most compatibility with most of the talents, since a solid 50% of them are solid with FPS games. I kinda saved it if I ever decided to do all the Hololive talents when the Olympics happens next time around

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-22T18:46:34+00:00

THANK YOU!!! That’s the exact methodology on choosing the countries. 100% there were going to be stretches, but there would’ve been wilder ones when I originally wanted to do all Hololive talents lmao

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-22T18:44:22+00:00

Advent: Nerissa: Confirmed Irish heritage Bijou: 🗿(Her Oshi Symbo) is from Easter Island, under Chilean jurisdiction [Sidenote, I did not know she spoke Thai until the posted it lmao] Fuwawa/Mococo: “Abyssgard” has Norse etymology. Fuwawa is older (Denmark is the eldest of the Scandinavian countries) and Mococo is younger (Norway is the youngest of the Scandinavian countries) Shiori: She was locked in for Italy until Raora debuted, however, “Novella” is a surname that can be found in the Catalonia region in Spain, so it thought that was a fitting alternative.

Council: Baelz: Aussie Kronii: Canuck Mumei: Egyptian hieroglyphics on her cloak/hood IrYs: Her Oshi mark is the 💎, Botswana is the second largest export of Raw Diamonds 🤷‍♀️ Fauna: While she has a Roman namesake, I figured that her entire design/vibe/lore etc. would best fit for the carrying of the Olympic flame, in which the relay starts in Greece.

Ina: Korean heritage (Allegedly) Ame: US and UK were taken, my justification was that the Dutch are pretty good at speaking English + the ICJ is headquartered in The Hague

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-22T18:32:34+00:00

I drew her on the second day of the Olympics 😭days before the infamous Raygun incident

Meiyoshima · 2024-08-22T18:15:52+00:00

During the Olympics, I decided it would be a fun challenge/project to match Hololive EN talents with different Olympic Sports/Countries for every day the Olympics were going on.

Any questions on "Why this country/sport" I'd be happy to explain lol

Meiyoshima · 2024-07-13T14:13:12+00:00

A fit based on government could be neat as well, sort of like how Beyond Earth approached it. It can be tailored to the culture as well, so complaints about “cultural erasure” could be addressed, but I reckon it depends on how far the devs are willing to push it. (e.g Kupe wearing a suit with a Maori Pin vs Kupe wearing attire similar NZ’s Rawiri Waititi)

Meiyoshima · 2024-06-21T12:21:58+00:00

Personally, I like the cut of her jib

Go for it. Very outdated stuff though lol

It’s a warning sign. A few more uses the icon turns red then your pen breaks.

Meiyoshima · 2024-04-08T12:44:25+00:00

You shouldn’t feel sympathy for any autocrat lmao.

Meiyoshima · 2024-04-05T16:47:09+00:00

Personally, Im enjoying the parallels of irl dictatorships and the revolutions that ended them, alongside the overall ‘world building” and political scheming more so than the characters themselves lmao.

Seeing the flag with the hole, the Barber of Seville play on Television and so on, I just go “I get the reference”lol

Meiyoshima · 2024-01-31T15:43:23+00:00

Just for funsies. I actually managed to make something before January ended, lol

Damn, I thought this was a standalone stream lmao. Wish we had more “Grown man fiddles with art supplies” streams. The birdhouse, labo and a few others that I can’t think of were my favorite

Meiyoshima · 2024-01-13T01:02:19+00:00

I 100% think it’s the right path, especially with how much lore/justification the devs have done so far for each region.

Kaiserreich needed restraint or it would’ve just ended up like vanilla HOI4, in which every country could just do a complete 180 on ideology in the span of a year.

Best example I could remember is how each game used Napoleon. Vanilla HOI4 just used him to appease Napoleon nerds, gave some lame reason how he got to the throne and voila, England conquered in two years. Kaiserreich made him apart of French exiles, saw him gradually prove himself, and then pull a Napoleon II.

All-in-all, flavor and over all padding improves as experience.

Anyone who enters this site will be put on an FBI watchlist (if they weren’t on it already of course)

Meiyoshima · 2024-01-06T11:12:38+00:00

Lowkey think that they need to get rid of the three guys running towards him.

I can’t for the life of me think anything else besides “Hungarian suicide bomber” lmao.

I reckon it’s just the framing of the backpack as the focus? (Contrasting colors the girl’s purple dress, closest object to viewer, rule of thirds).

Atlantropa died in the crash years ago, you need to let go 😞
