i've always been under the impression that people who make fanwork (like spriting fantrolls) do that because they actually enjoy doing that

It kind of kills your enjoyment because a big aspect of it is community. Seeing what other creative work people make. But seeing AI instead and following a homestuck art blog that reblogs AI… kills it.

It makes all your time and effort seem meaningless. I want to see other people actually make stuff. I want to see people make something new. I don’t want to see an AI Fantroll no matter how well the ai is trained.

#Anonymous #Who needs cosplayers with AI #Who needs artists with AI #Who needs to talk to people when you can use AI #No innovation #Nothing new #Why bother making something when you get drowned out by AI #And other people get drowned out by AI #And anything original is lost in a sea of AI

Don't let the lazy AI bros getcha down. The statistics machine is just gonna spit out a bunch of similar trolls. Human creativity adds variety that an image generator cannot

I don’t know if I can. Why would I go and put effort into something when someone is just going to take the concept and do the same thing but with AI so they don’t have to create?

#anonymous #Gee the actual fantroll generator I worked on that people constantly use without credit wasn’t enough so now you need to use AI #Great

I log onto Tumblr and I see ai generated fantrolls. What’s the point?

#delete later //#Why #Makes everything feel like a waste of time #What’s the point of making fantrolls if people are just going to ai generate them?

I'd give you a request but I'm unsure if you've read the latest HSBC and I don't want to spoil you sorry

I’ve read it, send them in!

#anonymous #Saw the new funky Nymph opportunities #Have some thoughts #delete later //

I have a brief window of time between now and surgery to sprite a few things, what do we want to see?

#delete later //#I might sprite some Satyrs #Or some new Nymphs now that we know how weird they can get #Or finish up more EZ kids #Also realizing I forgot to post the Halloween sprites #Whoops

do you have your own dollmakers separate from farrago? i'm asking since most of the farrago site is starting to rot away and a lot of people really love your contributions

No, I can’t program.

#anonymous #delete later //

Genuinely devastated I can’t make sprites right now because I’m getting surgery soon. I want to make Satyrs so bad.

Now the most important question: are all hsbc Satyrs into Dirks technofascist classicist bullshit or is Swiss just a major freak?

Design note I want to make: the hairline blends with the skin, implying they have (white) fur.

#homestuck beyond canon #HSBC #spoilers #upd8 #So mad I’m busy and can’t make sprites #But hsbc Satyrs are exactly what I thought they were going to be #I think Swiss has to be the most extreme/stereotypical #Or else he wouldn’t have been introduced first #But I knew they would straight up look like humans with Horse elements

The homestuck pilot is bad.

Going to reblog with this snippet of commentary so it’s not lost in the comments:

It seemed like a very awkward attempt to establish she plays the violin, but it was extremely awkward. They do some similar stuff with Dave; randomly starts drinking the apple juice because that’s a thing, but missing the context and joke about it maybe being piss? Which doesn’t work because the entire point of the Apple juice was it being set up for Dave’s abusive living situation. Dave stashes food in random places because he’s food insecure, and the idea that his legal guardian would piss in his food and drinks sounds like something that could happen. Each Beta kid comes from an abusive/neglectful household save for John. Rose is being raised by an alcoholic, Dave is being raised by a physically abusive man and being exposed to sexual content by his “Bro,” and Jade is legitimately neglected because her legal guardian is dead. John has a completely loving non-abusive Father that he complains about constantly, while the others in abusive situations play it off as normal. This doesn’t come across in the pilot, the over-exaggerated Dad fight actually makes Dad come across as abusive! So, the random apple juice was for nothing. At least the alcoholism set up is still there with Mom Lalonde still carrying the martini.

What they chose to prioritize, in my opinion, was all the wrong things.

#Ignore the repeated phrasing in the first sentence I have a headache

The homestuck pilot is bad.

#Why is John Egbert talking like Fanon Karkat #Generally weird adaptational choices #A young FUCK man FUCK stands in his FUCK bedroom #I don’t like all the weird character performance choices they made #Rose running around her room pulling out her violin Willy nilly #Everything was very rushed #Pacing was a major problem

not a request but how are you feeling about satyrs being in the new comic? ik you're very protective of them and wondered if you're worried the lore might get too close to home

Nah, they’re extremely different. They’re high tech my little ponies. This is how I found out about the new update, by the way.

Specifically they’re Tron My Little Ponies. Which makes me upset I didn’t think of it first.

#What do we think of the new Tron Movie trailer #I have thoughts #Not all of them good

#anonymous #Weirdly they’re more similar to my Wyverns than my Satyrs #My Little Pony core Fanspecies #My Nymphs and my Satyrs are very very different than the HSBC species
