Vtubing would be a lot more interesting if more people used non-anime models

>>104221984Henya playing silksong?
>>104222035Read the file name
>>104222018not OP, but I'd be willing to bet that if a hololive girl did it, people would be losing their minds calling it the most innovative thing they'd ever seen. the main thing keeping it obscure is that for the most part, only indies do it and they're inherently more niche than holos are
>>104222046NTA but I posted the same thing in another thread with bug doki, that thing simply looks more like Henya than her, sorry Dragoon.
>>104221984looks like shit
>>104221984now, porn of that when?
>>104222099The limitation of being a JP corpotuber is the inability to do things like this on the fly, sadly. While they probably don't mind per se, it would be cool, easy to do/ask for, and it would net a good positive result. But JP suits are autistic about paperwork and red tape.
>>104222035>average Vshitshow brain at work
>>104221984People do, saw a vtuber with a rubber-hose cartoon avatar (Felix the Cat, Cuphead/Bendy)
>>104222336I know all of these NOT HOLOS just from jpegs posted here and that looks like Henya
>>104222099no it doesn't. the hyper realistic marine from the summer MV got a lot of criticism.
>>104221984this is why i watch vanillecherie. the patricians vtuber.
>>104221984It's pretty common for indies to use customised gimmick models from time to time.
>>104222562>hyper realisticwell there's the problem right there
>>104222261The silhouette and expression are pretty clearly Doki, but the colours and clothes are way closer to Henya. It's understandable how you'd initially think it was Henya if you just saw the model with no other context. No need to apologise.
>>104221984The avatar is the least interesting part of vtubing for almost everyone. The number of vtubers that actually do anything with the avatar besides having it take up part of the screen is minuscule.
>>104222018There's a ton of non anime vtubers (mostly twitch) that do just fine without them weaboo
Bug chaser thread.
>>104221984but they do no one cares
>>104221984God it's such an adorable model. Niupao cooked so hard.
>>104223794>>104222035I'm not seeing it. Is it just because of the cloak?
I saw Henya at first too
>>104221984people have tried plenty but it always looks like visual aids
>>104221984>>104226846indies once again thinking constantly debuting new expensive gimmicky models are a suitable replacement for personality/charisma and will bring in the viewers and they really don't
>>104230370It has literally been proven most of you are doritoniggers. You watch people because of the blue dorito, you are brand loyalists. It doesn't matter what they do or do not do, you won't watch them anyway if they don't have the dorito. Cover could use the shittiest models and the most boring streamers ever and you'd still watch it just because of the fucking dorito.

>>104230547These mouthbreathers unironicaly think good rigging is intrinsically inferior and inauthentic to the folded 1000x Grorious Nipponese experience.>>104223369>>104224700
>>104230851Dooby, Nimi, Rei and Ruka have better rigging than Saba
>>104221984We've seen that happen and most of the time they all suck.
>>104230370>/#/every time. You just can't comprehend the idea of doing something for the fans, huh.
>>104230851NTA and not related to the posts you linked, but "good rigging" is overrated and something somehow most indies don't get. Sure, if your rigging is horrible or your model design looks atrocious, people won't check you out. However, beyond a certain level where the model and movement look fine, it doesn't matter as much. That's why corpos (Holo, Niji, VSpo JP) still get lots of viewers even though their riggings are hardly top tierI hear now and then about some fresh indies spending $8K-$10K on their models and riggings and I can only thought that was a waste of money - it's like thinking somehow a great cover will make a great book
>>104221984
>>104233571It is a waste of money usually but you are not factoring in environment.The only reason the corpos get away with it is because they are insular.They are mostly working with other people with the same type of models and rigging.If you are an indie you are in the environment where several of the top people have that super expensive rigging so it is the standard that everyone gets compared to.
>>104233571Moments like this literally wouldn't be possible if Doki's rigging wasn't top notch. Great rigging isn't a hard requirement, but it does make the stream more fun to watch, and that's the main thing she's always gunning for is having the most entertaining stream possible
>>104231209lmao what? the only rigging that's even close to Saba is Laimu, and that's the same rigger
