#I agree the color visual of the iron isn’t ideal but it’s still cool I think #it would have been perfect if they put the iron in it and then put a gold/silver/bronze foil over it #so it’s still conspicuously There and people will know its significance but it would be less disruptive to the overall look

want to give my two cents on the AI usage in the maestro trailer--

i think seventeen doing a whole concept that is anti-AI is very cool, especially as creatives themselves i think it's good that they're speaking up against it and i hope it gets more ppl talking about the issue. i also understand on a surface level the artistic choice (whether it was made by the members, the mv director, or whoever else), to directly use AI in contrast to real, human-made visuals and music in order to criticize it. i also appreciate that they clearly stated the intention of the use of AI at the beginning of the video

however, although i understand it to an extent, i do not agree with the choice to use AI to critique AI. one of the main ethical concerns with generative AI is that it is trained on other artists' work without their knowledge, consent, or compensation. and even when AI generated images are being used to critique AI, it still does not negate this particular ethical concern

the use of AI to critique also does not negate the fact that this is work that could have been done by an actual artist. i have seen some people argue that it's okay in this context because it's a critique specifically about AI, and it is content that never would have been done by a real artist anyway because it doesn't make sense for the story they're trying to tell. but i disagree. i think you can still tell the exact same story without using AI

and in fact, i would argue that it would make the anti-AI message stronger if they HAD paid an artist to draw/animate the scenes that are supposed to represent AI generated images. wouldn't it just be proof that humans can create images that are just as bad and nonsensical and soulless as AI, but that AI can't replicate the creativity and beauty and basic fucking anatomy that's in human-made art?

it feels very obvious this was not just a way to cut corners and costs like a lot of scummy people are using AI for. ultimately it was a very intentional creative decision, i just personally think it was a very poor one. and even if some ethical considerations were taken into account before this decision, i certainly don't think all of them were. at the very least i feel like the decision undermines the message they want to convey

i would also like to recognize that i myself am not an artist, and i have seen some artists that are totally on board with the use of AI in this specific context, so clearly this is not a topic that is cut and dry. but generative AI is still new, and i think it's important to keep having these conversations

#melia.txt #also want to add that as musicians svt are more directly threatened by AI generated audio than they are by AI generated images #and yet AI generated images is what was used in the video #and i guess the MV director/production company are the ones directly responsible for putting that in there #whether it was their initial idea or not #and they work in a visual medium so perhaps that makes it more 'fair' but idk it just feels like #the commentary is around music. which makes sense. and using human produced music/sound #but then taking advantage of AI images #idk just feels weird #i mean i don't like it either way #like i said in the main post i understand the intention behind the creative decision #and i'm still happy svt are speaking against ai at all i do think overall they're doing a good thing here #i just don't agree with the creative decision they/the production company/whoever made #edit: deleted the part about not boycotting svt over this bc ppl were commenting about boycotting bc of the 🛴 stuff #i meant specifically /I/ am not calling for a boycott because of specifically the ai stuff #was just trying to make a general point that im not making this post bc i want to sabatoge svt or whatever #bc kpop fans love to pull that catd whenever u criticize anything #so yeah just removed that bit bc i dont want ppl getting confused what im talking about #respect ppl boycotting because of scooter/israel stuff but thats not what this post was intended to be about #edit 2: turning off reblogs bc im going to bed and having asomewhat controversial post up is not gonna help me sleep well lol #may or my not turn rb's back on in the morning

I think Dreamworks would be a better suited studio to adapt Warrior Cats into a movie actually. Everyone always says Disney (or Don Bluth, if only) but look at this

Don't tell me you can't imagine warrior cats fans using this image in a Firestar roleplay or something

#idk I just think the style would be overall better #both in terms of visuals and writing #warrior cats #dreamworks #provider of ramblings

💀 for both of em!

Goth as in visigoth, right? That Parabolan war won't wage itself (ft. a Winged and Taloned Steed, Formerly Mr Veils).

And you know The Photo? Nicholas would absolutely do The Photo. Rocking Victorian Gothic. Elias wouldn't be caught dead in a colour that garish.

#my art #ockham #fallen london #that second drawing was rather frustrating #since my ref had very bleak lighting overall #so i thought i'd visually distinguish with temperature rather than value #but i'm not sold on the result #noted for next time #also that text is hand-lettered #though i don't know why given the time it took vs result #once upon a time i used to do gravestone engraving analogue style #and forgot the animosity i feel towards serifs because of it until this fine morning #Roberts/Nite

My toxic trait is that I like how my incomplete drawings look better than the finished things

#im sorry i cant be her (my searching lines) #i cant stop thinking about this drawing i have a sinking feeling that im gonna be very unhappy when its done #or. not unhappy. but not as excited as i feel about it now! #i only worked in two short chunks on it but both were pretty productive #i have a feeling that when i take the time to really dedicate myself to it im gonna fuck something up #like i can see areas i need to/can improve already but the glaring flaws are ok! bc it's not finished! #it OVERALL looks cool and LOOKS like it has the potential to turn out well #but will it... WILL IT??? WILL IT EVER? #i have never been so totally completely satisfied w any finished drawing ive dedicated myself to fully. #tales from diana #this is also only the second time ive done a really deliberate self-portrait that wasnt in some for or another. practice #like of course ive drawn my face before. not that often actually. but since yes i do draw. i have drawn myself #i probably should've drawn myself more times for how often i think id like a nice picture of myself #but then again its not gonna be so 'nice' if i make it and am not totally happy w it? #see one of the ppl who inspired me to learn to draw is ned @sneez my dearest. he's spoiled me before #and drawn me very beautifully on several occasions and it's very much a thing to move one's heart #to see someone dedicate their talent to depicting YOU. #and i might say HE has made me look more beautiful in art than i think i'll ever look in the flesh #which is not to say he drew me inaccurately. but he's so talented that his art is more beautiful than life. #and i dont compare myself in skill to him bc he's been doing it for YEARS and way more trained than me in the visual arts. #like it simply wouldn't be fair so i only compare myself to myself. naturally #but i used to think. very VAINLY i might say. that if i could draw like him id draw beautiful pictures of myself all the time #well ce n'est pas ca mon ami. since learning to draw i've found im much more interested in drawing ppl i find beautiful #rather than myself. im not art. not through my own eyes at least. #i should really draw ned sometime. i really should. #actually somewhat embarrasingly i tried to draw him like 5 or 6 years ago. and i NEVER tried to draw then #i did show him tho and he thought it was very impressive but that's probably just bc he loves me. xoxox #maybe ill post that someday as a throwback just for the hell of it. lol. thatd be cute

Since AA6 is the next AA game you're playing, I just wanna say I really hope you like it.

While it's not my favorite game in the series it IS my favorite in the Apollo trilogy. I'm also one of the few people who likes the main prosecutor of the game.

I doubt it will beat AA4 as being the best in the trilogy (imo ofc, yknow I just think AA4 is all around wonderful in terms of story, character, and art because uhhh I hate the 3D models GRRRRRR)

My brother dislikes the prosecutor guy and I think his reasoning (iirc) was that he was too nice ?? Or something idr it was a few months back

I really hope I like it too HAHA

#doctorsiren #not art #siren speaks #I think AA4 looks the best overall visually #I wish they would have stuck with that style for the rest of the trilogy #I die a little inside everytime i see the 3D model animations… #but from what I know. the models in AA6 are improved from AA5 #I think I would have enjoyed AA5 more IF IT WAS IN THE APOLLO JUSTICE STYLE GRRRRRAHHHH #also aa4 is best bc uhhhhHHHHHH BEANIX !!!! RAHHHHH I’m so in love with him he fascinates me #I want to study him under a microscope and then also get a hug from him

so it seems older Raz has overcome his difficulties with his hydrokinesis. Neat! I imagine dogen did too with his blast-isis thingie (saw it from ur comics) : D

so does that mean. Raz can form or Manipulate shapes of water. Kinda like how Maligula can with water serpents. I imagine Raz has own favourite animal for that? And water his strongest power or still struggle with it? anyway amazing work as always.

yeah, he's pretty good with it!

detail crop + more rambling under the cut

it's his strongest power, but he doesn't specialise in it super heavily. so he's not as skilled in it as, say, Lili is with her herbaphony. he's definitely not as good as his great aunt, but Lucrecia was, like, incredibly talented. from the feats we see her accomplish (making hundred-foot waves and tornadoes of water, crossing oceans, drawing water from the moisture in the air), I'd say she's quite possibly one of, if not the, strongest psychic in the canon.

could Raz be as good as her one day? maybe! he has the potential, but it'd take a lifetime of practice. and i think generally he prefers spending his time working on all his powers, rather than strongly specialising in just one or two. he's not as good at HK as he could be if he really focused on it, but in exchange he's also pretty good with a lot of his other powers. jack of all trades, master of none, y'know?

#psychonauts #future superstar agents au #instead of snakes his thing is hands. i just think the hand of galochio is a really cool visual #generally my headcanon is that talent and innate potential /are/ factors #but overall they're usually less important than just practice and hard work #some things will come more naturally to some people but generally anyone can learn any power as long as they're willing to work at it #it's like any real life skill. talent exists and it can give you a big head start early on #but it's ultimately unimportant without dedication and persistence #but then also (to immediately undercut my own tag ramble) there are exceptions! #people like Compton and Dogen are unusual among psychics. their brains just produce way more psychic energy than normal and no-one knows wh #it's theorised that blastokinesis isn't even a particular ability it's just the result of channelling WAY too much destructive psychic ener #anyway. glowing eyes go brrrrr #polish #it's not super polished but it's nice and it has shading so it goes in my 'nice art' tag #fsau raz

speaking of people's wrong opinions on art i love haikyuu's art development and its current style idc what ppl say about it

#not every mangaka needs to draw their characters like models sometimes they need to look a bit silly and match the overall tone #idk its sad that so many fans ignore how good furudate's shape language is like his stylization rlly pushed those formssssss ugh #also the faces got more variation it is so easy to tell hq characters apart even though hq rarely uses screen tones like its just bw #i also love how furudate draws old people he is so good at captivating the charm fo all ages ranges its sooooooo #i remember a few years ago i saw ppl complain about kuroo oikawa etc not being Pretty BOys anymore like i guess ut also it makes sm sense t #me #HQ is from HINATAS pov and i think characters like oikawa and kuroo looking goofier and less handsome/intimidating only highlights that the #become hinatas friends like theyre not these imposing seniors anymore those are his friends #i also like that they look and act their age i love that everone is pulling weird faces all the time #hq's visual comedy is just good in general esp with hinata and kageyama oughhhhh #haikyuu! art is great i think it plays such a big role in why its so beloved #even if not everyone likes it
