reaching the "I have to look like this character" stage of hyperfixation is devestating when its a podcast character and there are little to no clues about how they look
Guys, in honour of Cecil doing so well on the sexyman polls, I think we should start a podcast centric sexyman poll. We have enough of them it could work.
"Viv made Alastor a father figure to Charlie to kill Charlastor"
Charlastor was already dead my dude, from the start it had a zero chance of being canon and that's fine. The best we could hope for was a friendship between the two and i'm not surprised Viv went the more paternal route (didn't expect it this early but lol) If Viv went so far as to claim she and Alastor are biologically related I'd understand your point but when it's just Alastor saying she's like a daughter to him and it seems like he's mainly doing it to piss off Lucifer
Even ignoring that it's a little ridiculous to assume every decision is made by Viv as a "take that!" to the fans, Alastor since the pilot was never going to get a romantic interest, chaggie has been canon for awhile and we don't know if this daddy/daughter thing was planned from the start, happened midway, was suggested by someone else, etc. But stop saying they killed your ship with this episode, the ship was dead and never gonna happen anyway. Literally do what you want and ignore canon, it didn't stop ya'll before don't let it stop you now.
Hi ! i'm an industry artist (animator storyboarder and background artist) And i'm here to tell you something :
In a time when AI users are constantly trying to pass as real artists, you're not and will never be The Asshole for asking an artist online to prove they're not using AI.
I've been asked that question myself. I'm not saying it made me feel good, but here's the thing : when you *don't* use IA, it's actually pretty easy to prove it. Even without a speed paint. And i'm not ever going to get mad at someone for asking me to, because I would WAY rather have people be too suspicious than them being easily duped into supporting lying, art-thieving assholes.
It's really easy for real artists to provide proof of their process by showing the different layers of their digital art pieces. (and for now AI-bros are still struggling to make their immitations of that convincing enough).
For exemple, here's my whole step-by-step process vs the final piece (done with photoshop 2022) :
here's another simpler sketch vs final render comparaison :
Of course it sucks that as artists we have to "prove" ourselves like that. But unfortunately in 2024 we can't trust ANYTHING we see on the internet. And it makes it our responsability to be extra critical with every image we encounter, even in fandom spaces where we're supposed to be relaxing. And trust me, I hate it. But the only other option is normalizing the use of AI in those internet spaces that are supposed to be havens of creativity and self-expression, and in my opinion it's way worse.
Reminder that (re)generative "art" is only possible through huge ammounts of art-theft, terrible for the environment, and lazy.
because i'm a fucking huge Pink Floyd stan i also have a headcanon that Vincent would enjoy their songs pretty much, he'd find their lyrics very poetic
Here’s y’all’s food (wow that’s two apostrophes in that word, dunno if that’s right or not but nonetheless)
Look everybody I’m all for the height difference but Lucifer has hekking WINGS! He could turn that dynamic on a dime any time he damn well wished.
*Should I have added a deer tail yes or no?* (not rhetorical pls I wanna know)
I have more planned for this comic I swear but just had to scrap the other three panels (not these ones these ones stay) I had finished so now I’m rethinking how I want the rest of it to look. But regardless here’s this cute ass fluff.
