#venting in this blog as it has less than 100 followers but#it makes me so sad to see some corners of the tolkien fandom feel like#they have to resort to AI “art” to depict their characters#ive observed some used to pay for loads of commissions and now its all AI#i get that its free and that people would rather not draw if they feel they dont have the talent for it#its a chore for me too sometimes i get it!!#and then they post it on various art and fic sites and im like#shaking them by their shoulders pleading for them to stop#if you need to use it for help with character design when your hand isnt skilled enough to like#siiighhh i get that ok fine#but then just use it as a reference and try your hand at it#i complain sometimes when im doing art but it really is a thing of beauty and inner peace when you can make something with#your own hand#even if its bad to some peoples eyes! but then you gain the valuable skill of blocking out the haters

I wholeheartedly agree with your stance on AI "art" being violating and problematic.
However, I do have a problem with the way you stated that even though you know MBB to be an adult, she is still Eleven from ST and a minor in your eyes.
She's 19. She's engaged. Because of her career she is probably more independent than anyone of us was at that age. And I do think that perpetual viewing of actors as 'stuck' as a character they once portrayed is problematic.
This is what happened when people thought "omg Hannah Montana has gone nuts" or "what happened to the sweet Demi Lovato?" Or anything else involving child actors.
What happened? They grew up.
Other than that, your point about AI generated images (I'm not even calling it 'art' anymore) stands. It's creepy and violating, especially because AI is getting 'better' (= more accurate) and I'm honestly afraid that before long we will have full-on deepfake porn videos with actors who never asked for that shit.
That said; it does raise the question with me whether or not a similar stance is warranted against NSFW artwork or smut with the actors rather than portrayed characters as the subject. (I've never been a big fan of RPF, and I don't think I've come across "real person fan art", so I can't really say with certainty if it would make me uncomfortable. But the AI things... They just make my skin crawl.)
You make a valid point!!! Warning long ass post reply below.
The Millie thing I think is more my personal view of her physically. I think I view Millie as still a young child is because of her youthful face and the characters she plays. I'm 22. It's still so hard for me to think she's only 2-3 years younger than me. To me she still looks 16. Very young. If she had a sex scene in the next 5-10 years I might still be inclined to turn away. She definitely has accomplished a lot.
I just cannot physically imagine her in sexual light at this present time. She has child like appearances other than when she's dolled up from a magazine shoot with Photoshop and then appears borderline age appropriate.
The same can be said for actor Bella Ramsey who is 20 years old, they have a very young look in appearance and have played many roles depicting them as younger than their original age. But both of them definitely deserve to be admired and respected to the work they've contributed.
So being told there's ai images with "white sauce" on her face makes my insides churn. Either a very young fan has generated that or someone's computer that might need to be investigated.
I never really knew who Hannah Montana was until wrecking ball (wasn't allowed to watch tv a lot growing up as a kid. And I was always told she was a slut in the tv show which is why I wasn't allowed to watch it -by gross male family members.) and I didn't know who Demi Lovato was AT ALL until the drug scandal- that's how I learnt about her music because they played it on the news. I was probably 13-14 at this time. But I think I understand what you're comparing...I think?
Like how Billie Eillish showed her body off when she was 18 and the internet went crazy, but to be fair I also thought she was in her 20s and was shocked when I found out she was only a little bit younger than me.
I still find myself uncomfortable even sexualising 33 year old Thomas Brodie-Sangster 😵💫 he still looks 13 to me!!!
REGARDLESS AS WE BOTH AGREE, THESE ACTORS AND PERFORMERS DONT DESERVE THIS AI PORN DISRESPECT.
For years people used to Photoshop actors faces into photos of pornos, I had issues with that.
The difference when it comes to art? Yes I think some people can be disturbing. We have Rule 34 for a reason guys. However the difference is that the art is usually not "realistic." We can tell it's hand drawn whether digital or hardcopy.
AI is luckily easy to spot usually. But it's too close in resemblance to these real people. A lot of porn websites have resorted to using AI, which is why I have a massive issue with this too. AI is two minutes if writing a description and having a computer generate. It's impulsive and dangerous.
Deepfakes, they've already made pornos with Scarlett Johansson, Taylor Swift and Katy Perrys faces I believe. There was a massive scandal when a man used the face of his female best friend in a deep fake porno because he had a "unrequited crush" for her and when she discovered the deepfake video on his computer while he was busy, she left and took him to court over sexual violation and privacy policies. It was HUGE. i hate Ai and Deepfakes.
There's even a constant debate on pedophiles using AI and Deepfakes as a means of gaining CP without soliciting CP... (I say guillotine their cock, hands, burn off their clits and spoon out their eyes with a melon ball scooper spoon but hey that's me ✌️ barbaric barbie.)
The difference between NSFW smut fics and AI porn, is:
1. Smut takes effort and time to write. AI writes and steals content for you. There's no creativity.
2. Because it's a written fic, they should have warnings and tags. It should be noted in RPF that the actors are not the same as your write them to be. This is why I changed a lot of my rpf into the characters they play.
3. Fics require imagination. AI is visual. No one can police your genuine imagination.
4. There are actors who have been uncomfy or flushed at the sight of themselves or the character version of them in NSFW Situations. Loki the pole dancing art and mpreg were show to Tom Hiddleston, who had a chuckle and many emotions of confusion with disgust and horror. I can imagine many actors would prefer to see an effort in art and literature when it comes to evil things instead of just some half baked computer program that creates lewd and anticlimactic imagery.
.
The only time I have ever excused it's use was for the chance to see my dads face move again because I don't have many videos of him, and as morbid as it is there's a comfort to seeing him smile in ai moveable photo scanning apps. But to many others this would be considered disrespectful to the dead and to be honest I would side with them if it came down to banning ai and Deepfakes forever.

Post submission guidelines!
You can submit posts in a couple ways: tag me in an existing post for me to reblog, send me a post to reblog via DMs, submit photos through the “Show Me Stuff!” link on the homepage (click the three bar logo in the upper left corner-- this is the preferred method for sending photos that haven’t already been posted by someone else!), or send an ask with your photos.
If you want your submission tagged for a certain part/character, leave the names in the tags or include it in the text of your DM/ask!
If you submitted something and I haven’t posted it, it’s because I’ve already shared that piece/post!
Try to avoid anything super explicit-- see the “nsfw-ish” tag explanation above for the extent of what’s allowed!
Please include a source for your image(s)-- this should include the designer’s name at the very least, but years/seasons, publication info, model/photographer/stylist names, and all other information is also greatly appreciated. Alternatively, you can include a link to where you found the picture if that link is for the creator’s website/store, a magazine article, or some other kind of helpful and informative source. If you found it on Pinterest, don’t send the Pinterest link-- send the outgoing link that the pin leads back to. If you’ve tried and failed to find a source via reverse image search, Googling, etc., then you can submit your images with “Source needed” as a last resort.
OC Friday submission guidelines!
I won’t accept AI generated images. You might send me something without knowing it’s AI, and that’s okay, but just know I won’t post it and I encourage you to look closely any any off-looking images before you submit. Here's a post I've made to help with that.
I don't accept art of pre-existing non-JoJo characters or designs as fashion posts. For example, if you send me "X from the Y franchise reminds me of a JoJo character!" or "This fan art of Z from the show Q is wearing a cool outfit!", I won't count it. If you can find the real-world fashion that inspired those designs, feel free to send those instead!
Any kind of character art is welcome!
There’s no limit to the number of characters you can submit.
You can either tag me on a post or submit art through my main page, but I recommend tagging so that people can find your blog more easily!
I'll also be going through the OC tag and picking out characters from all around Tumblr! So it'll (hopefully) be a mix of submissions and non-submissions.
Any quality of art is welcome, just be sure to give proper credit if you're using any kind of base or if the art is commissioned from someone else.
I’ll post whatever you guys send eventually (barring of course any unacceptable/hateful content).
Feel free to send me posts of other people’s OC’s as well, as long as it’s on Tumblr because I won’t repost art from another platform.
Fan art submission guidelines!
Submit art of canon JJBA characters wearing alternate outfits from what they wear in the series-- art of canon outfits don’t count! I’ll make an exception for alternate outfits from official art (i.e. Jolyne/Bruno/Abbacchio in their Fly High with Gucci outfits) as long as it’s not the character’s primary outfit within the story.
You can send your own art or other people’s, but it has to be from Tumblr bc I won’t repost art from other platforms.
The clothes can be from this blog or not from this blog! (but it does make me very happy when you draw stuff I’ve posted)
There won’t be an official schedule for sharing these posts but I’ll try and get around to all of them eventually
