YouTube set my video for kids and killed all momentum over there

Someone on the team decided gen ai was the way to go for certain things, so it's hard to feel sorry for them - they know it's a way to cut costs and corners

All I know for certain was the effort from costuming was genuine from Toku Jay through to Parallel studios. I feel bad for them

Deserved for their use of gen ai - it's good that fans are calling them out.

This isn't the way forward and I feel sorry for the genuine effort from the team behind the costumes

Real human art > ai slop

I should apply, get hired to send them the inevitable report that gen ai is shit and won't work. Waste everyone's time

MMPR Season 2 character design dump - let me know if you want to see the rest of the team and other Monsters. I'll try and muster up the strength to draw them 😅 Missing drawing in my natural style, less thinking for me but this was still a fun exercise I've learned a few things
