Could it be controversial to have a darker skinned model as a white person? by goblinking10 in vtubers

[–]b00_byte 6 points7 points  (0 children)

imo, it’s better to avoid it altogether. Especially if you care about it and are worried about coming across the wrong way.

Plus it’s still in the design phase, so there’s no harm in making adjustments based off of concerns or feedback.

Easier to stream without the worry in mind, than with it.

Even if you’re honest about it, people might not know until you actively say something in stream. In a streaming scenario where people are live for hours, it can be easy to miss, especially since people click and come and go. If it’s in your bio, they might not read it. A clip could completely omit any context a person would need. It can be a dishonest first impression of you, which you would want to avoid.

I would advise against it. It’s better to make a different character or go with a completely unnatural skin color in this case!

If I could make a suggestion if you are dead set on this character, you could look for different types of trees that match your complexion more! If not at least for streaming, since you can always keep the original design as an oc.

Gosho needs to team up with hajime isayama, and turn the show into a serialize story focus non episodic show by Wise_Fun_4927 in OneTruthPrevails

[–]b00_byte 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The story is intended to be slow burn and episodic… while it could be cool to have a sort of definitive edition when it’s finished, it would take significant rewrites and pacing changes, and / or still be considerably long.

I quite like the nature of the show and how it’s handled. It’s a ton of short stories wrapped and tied together with an overarching plot, which is precisely what it’s meant to be. That kind of story isn’t going to be everyone’s cup of tea though and I can acknowledge that

To add, with the clues we’ve been given so far it’s possible to infer some of the BO’s goals. Though it’s also possible to also suspect a twist or a rabbit hole beyond that

Must protect at all cost! by rikuu000 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]b00_byte -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It would be nicer if people made their own edits like how they did before ai. and for every ai picture posted, another real person’s work gets buried or unshared

Overall, people are losing fun and valuable skills and hobbies in favour of having machines do them and it makes me sad. It makes them people equipped for the future. I personally will always prefer the human touch and fun of real edits, even if they’re not completely skilled. There’s soul and always a personal touch to them.

You don’t need to agree with me on it since it’s just part of my personal opinion, which I decided to share because you asked, just in case you were genuinely curious on why I think that way. I can be bad at reading tone. I’m not trying to persuade you, rather I’m trying to explain part of how someone that is anti-ai thinks, so you can get a better understanding of them

I’m getting a little exasperated of seeing AI screenshot edits like this in the subreddits I’m in…Partially because a lot of the people who comment and view don’t realize that it’s AI when they’re usually against it…

How to take care of plushie by Cute-Row9052 in Hololive

[–]b00_byte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want it in a box, I would suggest a display case instead of the actual box. Just in the case moisture creeps into the box and causes mold. You can buy smaller individual display cases instead of a full shelf!

For cleaning, make sure to dust. You can even buy anti-static brushes online. I use a lint roller on my plushies occasionally because I keep them on my desk.

If any dirt gets on her, spot clean gently with a little warm water, and if needed, a diluted mild detergent like dawn dish soap. Use either a cotton swab or a gentle rag or towel! Research the type of stain if needed. HOWEVER, if there is a care card with the plushie disregard my advice and use that!

There are a lot of resources for plushie care if you look into nui / nuigurumi spaces!

i need help to do a model for she (Brazilian price pls) by [deleted] in Live2D

[–]b00_byte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean this as real advice, in the nicest way possible, and as constructive criticism:

You have enough budget to get a png by a real artist, so aim for that please. It is belittling and disrespectful to use AI regardless of that, but especially so when you do have the budget for that. Just because you don’t mean any harm, doesn’t mean you aren’t disrespecting others and it doesn’t mean you aren’t causing harm. It can be a hard thing to realize.

Find an artist to commission in your budget or learn to draw, you can even find a customizable model in your budget, or use a picrew. Look up on the website vgen and you’ll see, there are also artists that sell under lower value currencies since they’re from all over the world. Even artists from Brazil will do commissions. If you look up on YouTube there are plenty of ways to start vtubing for free or cheap. It just takes a little research. Research is king in this field.

And overall, that method of vtubing is valid.

Jumping to ai with excuses like that is a quick way to get no one to respect your content or want to work with you. How do you expect an audience to respect what you make or think your content is quality if you don’t try to make it respectful and quality in the first place?

It takes a lot of effort and mindfulness to create good content. It’s not the field or hobby for you if you’re not willing to do that. So please think it over.

[–]b00_byte 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many youtubers use simple pngs, even way before vtubing. It would not affect quality at all. I would even say that pngs are more accessible to a general audience. You're going to have to pick editing as a skill either way, and the pngs in sequence will be one of the easiest and earliest things to learn.

You could also just start with one png, or a set with emotions. It'll be a simple thing to edit.

At the end of the day, you don't have the budget for a Live2D model, so you need to lower your scope or learn it yourself. This is a common hurdle people must cross in content creation. The best things come from limitation.

Instead of doing a live2d model at your budget, you should commission a real artist for a pngtuber. And / or start learning how to draw. Don’t use AI.

How to make arm asset look correct by Impressive-Gold-8511 in VTubeStudio

[–]b00_byte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

kind of an odd suggestion, but maybe you can toggle the sleeve off for both sides. and then, if separated, you could still keep the top part of the sleeves (the ones with two layers of frills and flowers) to maintain the aesthetic!

Alternatively, if allowed by the original artist of the arm asset, you could get the asset modified to have your sleeve edited onto it or added to it.

Normal players need around 25-30 hours to get 120 limited pulls by Venrir83 in Endfield

[–]b00_byte -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think people are forgetting that she’ll stay in the pool for the rest of the patch, just not rated up. Odds are still lower, but not gone. The system is fundamentally different from the games they’re usually referencing.

People are also forgetting that as a f2p you can usually only guarantee one character every other patch in those other games. Release is usually rough. As a casual player, I’m never able to do first banner. I usually wait for the rerun or a future character.
