His influence also extended far beyond the microphone. McFarland directed English dubs for major productions including Attack on Titan, Fullmetal Alchemist, Dragon Ball, the Rebuild of Evangelion films, Summer Wars and Wolf Children, helping shape how an entire generation experienced anime in English.
Rest in peace, Mike McFarland. From Master Roshi and Buggy to Jean Kirstein, his voice and work behind the scenes became part of countless anime memories. 🕊️
I’d also like to mention that it is 100% possible to start vtubing on a budget or even with no money at all, I did it! Using ai is just being lazy, plain and simple
It's finally my turn to get ai as references for a commission <33 I'm curious what others would do in this situation, for me it was an immediate breach of trust, my commissions are very cheap ($20) and I just couldn't guarantee they wouldn't immediately throw it into an ai model
Went to see elio with my friend, hear this background character say something, turn to my friend and go “was that Zeno Robinson?” Laugh a bit cause haha no way but that did kinda sound like him, get to the credits, IT WAS ZENO ROBINSON
@loemyn I've always done it via selecting what I want outlined (or the inverse) and then going to edit > Outline Selection, It works a lot better in my opinion, and I've honestly never had any issues with it
I want to get into Live2D model commissions but I know the quality isn’t going to be great until I have some experience,, but I’d feel bad charging people for a product like that ://
