It’s kinda funny how the distinction between “grunt suits” and “hero suits” is mostly a thematic thing in Gundam, with the biggest separating factor being the pilot’s plot armor level, but things inspired by Gundam codified the difference in-universe in terms of stats. RX-7s vs Buster Machines in Gunbuster, MTs vs ACs in Armored Core, LEVs vs Orbital Frames in Zone of the Enders…

I still feel magical automata that builds more of themselves out of everything they loot would be the best way to do an evil horde.

Horrific clanking scarecrows

And in a world without heavy industry where almost everything is not mass produced,many object had a story

Wood from brooms and farm tools from people stuck down while working make up most of limbs

Their war wagons are made from lumber of torn down homes

It’s armor made from melted down tools and silverware

And sometimes if you open one up you will see bones you hope are from animals

More OC queue - here is part 2 of the Vaesparian Order grunts/minions, this time the uniform of the magic users. Once again this is just a template and it varies by species.

(Due to some slight issue with my first chapter file getting corroded, the VBro's fic will have a slight delay in being shown due to my computers slow reconstruction of the file. In the meanwhile, here's a second continuation of my last post albeit with mostly small oc notes.)

Cliff's first mission is also the one where he first encounters what happens to most henchmen that "don't reach their wings" as in being murdered by Brock Samson; the latter using only his knife and Hank's speeder bike to cut down a raiding group. Kurtzen only escapes when the rest retreat, shakened but not fully scared, he's yet to see the full insanity this universe brings.

Next day is some slight recovery (And washing undergarments...) and the cleaning of the main deck plus the mess hall and game room. (Twenty One owns the Gamecube and the others pitched for a Xbox, they vent their Samson rage after work....)

Later on, he discovers the complimentary tool-belt and often ignored instruction booklet granted to most minions. Cliff's spirits somewhat lighten after finding tools to escape with; though he's confused why no-one else wears them.

Before heading down to the bar area for a brief rest until going out with the others, a senior butterfly cusses him out for retreating a while ago and strolls off in a huff. Said senior is Scott Hall, wannabe elite minion and toe-rag, he will be of importance soon...

Off-scene is a brief portion dedicated to Rusty Venture preparing for a special contribution to the U.S. militaries arsenal; a special raygun that accelerates the growth and evolution of crops.

Normally this idea would sound pretty nice would it?

Sadly, we are talking about Doc Thaddeus "Rusty" Venture; the guy's invention is gonna go pear-shaped. In fact, it's going to turn the pear into a killer maneating plant worthy of Audrey 2.

Fortunately, Cliff and co are sent to do some light recon aka "B.S. while watching the Ventures in the bushes" aka just a light scene of Kurtzen getting to know two familiar henches.

Only for the fun to break cause an escaped, four-legged mutant hybrid of a potato/beet attacks the crew. Where did it come from, I'll let you guess later (Once I fix this darned corroded fic file that is!)

So.

Who actually ARE these fuckers?

I know they’re mercenaries (I HATE mercenaries!) but WHO are they?

Ex-stormtroopers?

Pykes?

Ubese?

Who are they?

So, this AI art has an interesting bit of process behind it.

Specifically, a lot of folks wrt AI art focus on the idea of it as just "put in prompt, get the thing made," but there's another angle a lot of folks don't consider...

...Well, okay, there's multiples, but upscaling and outpainting are their own things for their own posts, I'm talking about image2image. Which is, basically, putting in a link to an existing image, which uses it as a "guideline" for building the image in your prompt. 

Think of it as like adding new details onto an action figure with epoxy putty when customizing it, or building a stop-motion puppet around a metal armature. Significantly more advanced than DeepDream stuff.

Note that legally you can't use these things to "launder" other people's images, legally it still probably counts as a derivative work, but there's still so much you can do with PD/CC/your own photography/your own art. 

And I tried to do stuff with that here, by using them to generate images of a concept that's been bouncing around in my head for a while, the Blood Warriors, using a crude quick "sketch" as the "base" for img-2-img.

Note that these are not entirely "raw," there were several iterations of the AI versions I made with the prompts, I simply stitched together the best parts of each iteration into a final product, sometimes even doing img-2-img on one of the iterated versions!

But, I'm pleased with what I have done, I have a story for these weirdos (eventually) and I have a lot more AI art-related stuff on the way, I just hope I don't get some of the more... terrifying responses I've heard folks doing this stuff get.

this is how you know i think abt bakugou too much bc i am Still thinking abt when he called camie's illusion "glamoroki" and him thinkin about the word "glam" enough to use it in a mockery of shouto

I've been trying to find a source of the mooks for Guilty Gear X, XX, and XX Slash. While you can find them on Ebay, it's really expensive especially with international shipping costs. I was wondering if you would happen to have any scans of them, or at least know of a source that isn't gonna cut into my budget.

Archive.org is a good reliable source at the moment, so I would suggest collecting some PDFs from that site (ironically, so is e-hentai.org).

Last but not least, be sure to click the LINKS tag of my blog as I probably listed other links to other GG-related content in the LINKS tag.

Unfortunately I don't think there have been any scans for GGXX Slash or GGX Plus framedata readily available as scans… we'll have to do something about that!

Might also wanna do something about the 10th Memorial Guide and a few other things I’ve found over the years.
