My Imaginations Takes Over~

@ginnyicyidragon / ginnyicyidragon.tumblr.com

You are welcome to visit here. Just a reminder, there might be some mature here, but mild. For now, this is my reblog and (was) my own art account. I have two more other accounts on Tumblr, @iciwelcome-home and @icipersona5-pricefamily. Fandom Mood: Welcome Home ARG, Super Sentai (SemiActive, Mainly King-Ohger), Persona 4

Posted on my DeviantART page. I’d drew Serafina and Peter in their Phantom Thieves attires.

My Other Blog(s)

@icipersona5-pricefamily (My Persona 5 blog, not very activated, but sometimes it is) @iciwelcome-home (my latest blog for Welcome Home fandom)

Also... no bots allow. All the likes are (nsfw) bots nor who’s blog is nsfw (will be BLOCK), so stop it.

Bored, somehow came across Welcome Home ARG which no clue how and since April... it suck me in! I was supposed to wait until it’s done or more work on, but hehe... my imagination took over and I figured why not drawn my OCs out and maybe it would stop... NOPE! Still there, so... it might last for 2 months.

Quiet you! >w< Anyway! So far, I’d created two OCs of Welcome Home, well there were more, but these two stand out more. Anyway, Eric Hopper is somewhat a shy rabbit puppet and his/their jobs are in works since I have some ideas, but still looking. He seems to have some connections to Welcome Home show and was the latest one, but only appeared like two to four episodes. Dr. Whisker Furball is a ‘mad’ scientist genius yet lazy. Rumors has it that Whiskers was on Welcome Home show for awhile, but there wasn’t any proof about it. Do they have some sort of relationship with the cast? Yes, but that will (might) come later. For now, just sketches 😅

There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue! 

I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product. 

Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?

Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.

Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases. 

Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use. 

[SPOILERS!] P5S - Force Into Jail?!

It’s been weeks, a month or so since I had posted the screenshots of Persona 5 Strikers, due to personal things and decide to wait a bit for those who’d hadn’t finish the game yet. Anyway! This happens after beating Konoe and the Phantom Thieves were celebrating, buuuut... there’s always the true final boss to deal with and the Change of Hearts case is still activate. The Phantom Thieves had been dragged into a Jail of someone and they’re confuse of how it’s happening when EMMA is shutdown... or so they thought.

"Do you finally acknowledge your hubris? All this time you refused help, even now despite your insistence that you've changed... You will surely fall to your own demise with charred wings if you keep up this charade... You seek freedom? True salvation? Then I will grant you your new wings so that you may fly again... Just don't lose sight of yourself and burn again... I am thou, thou art I... Rise above your torment and take flight once more!"

"Help me fly, ICARUS!!"

I did it.... I finally DID IT! I did my own take on PT!Maruki! I love how he turned out!

Notes:

  • Codename: Adam (a reference to the Adam and Eve motif associated with him (that and Adam was casted out of paradise along with Eve so it still fits with what I'm going with here with this design))
  • Persona: Icarus (I personally felt like the story/myth fit Maruki pretty well, he flew too close and fell with his hubris but (unlike Icarus, who met his demise) that doesn't mean he can't be saved and redeemed)
  • I know people would often have him be all white and gold but... I couldn't help but think that the black and gold is a good way to show that he's symbolically a "fallen god" now along with fitting the story of Icarus still a bit.
  • Melee Weapon: His staff in canon, but probably modified more for battle. Helps with magic use too.
  • Ranged Weapon: Bow and arrows
  • His coat is long and two tailed.
  • Specializes in Bless Magic along with healing.
  • Stats (I'm gonna do a 1 to 10 thing. 1 for weakest, 10 for strongest. Idk why, it strangely helps me a bit more.):
Strength: 5
Magic: 10
Endurance: 4
Agility: 5
Luck: 7
"I am thou... Thou art I... Thou hast acquired a new vow... It shall become the wings of rebellion that breaketh thy chains of captivity. With the birth of Apostle Persona I have obtained the winds of blessing that shall lead to freedom and new power..."
"A Public Security Officer from Kyoto who is in charge of the investigation of a series of mysterious heart changes throughout Japan. He supposedly believes that you aren't responsible for them and strikes up a deal with you to work with him to solve the case."

What if...?

[SPOILERS!] Phantom Thieves Final Meetup

After the true final boss is reveal and the Metaverse fuse into reality once again, the Phantom Thieves prepare to face the final boss in the RV. I love how Atlus give Sophia that pose during this x3. And MC/Ren and Zenkichi looks so cool~

[SPOILERS!] Osaka Jail - Let’s Use the Guns Then!

During the battle against Shadow Konoe’s Mech, the thieves realize the mech could fly and need something to take it down. Luckily and surprisingly, guns are nearby. Of course the characters let you know about the gun/blasters. Also, I want more interactions/chatting between Zenkichi and Ryuji, I like it!
