Happy 4/27!!!! Just in time after my exams! It's so wonderful seeing this fandom still up and going. I never even thought that i'd have the guts to post about these sillies when the first game came out!
I hoped that i would be able to do a full-fledged art piece with proper colors and shading and all for this day, but i got rather busy this past week ^^;
I hope you all enjoy the rest of the Stanley Day ^^ take care <3
Oh, and see you guys at the sad-ist premiere too ;)
You've probably already seen this screenshot of an email of Kevan's opinion on AI generated audios
YES it's the real Kevan Brighting
However I'll explain the full context in this post and how we got this email
[warning for brief NSFW mention]
We obtained it thanks to @/shinakazami1 who asked him directly!
Ok so, since someone from a TSP discord server I'm in posted a NSFW AI generated audio of the Narrator, and someone else pointed out it wasn't ok to feed Kevan's voice to an AI and using it for making NSFW content without his consent, I wanted to know about his opinion on the matter but I was too coward to ask myself
But Shina had previously said she could ask Kevan directly if we wanted to commission him but didn't want to ask directly, so I told her if she could ask Kevan directly about his opinion on the matter, I wanted to ask specifically about the NSFW AI audios, but she decided to ask him about AI generated audios in general, and she'll ask him about NSFW voice commissions and other NSFW matters later
And that's basically how she got his opinion about AI generated audios
So the best thing we can and should do as a fandom is respecting him and his work, as well as his opinion on the matter and stop doing AI generated audios with his voice since he doesn't agree with it
Here’s a bit of trivia: Did you know that when I first made Laurence back in mid-February of 2023, he had an alternative 2d form to his regular one ?!?!?! Yeah its pretty rad
I thought that since that design was horribly outdated and very old, I might as well make it a bit better and more suitable for Laurence’s current and more deranged self C:
^^ Yellow fellow on the left belongs to @mikothemushroom (as tagged above) !!! They’re idiots, your honor /aff
Some fun facts about the lad (2D Laurence):
- His overall design remains relatively consistent, but his color palette shifts with every appearance! (Excluding the explosion shape’s first… ring…? Layer…? Either way, it’s always pink to match with the hair of his 3D counterpart ^_^)
- The only design changes are located in his trench coat/“clothes”, whether it’s a different tie or different accessories (like pins) or small designs on the lapels of his trench coat
- 2D Laurence is supposed to look similar to my Timekeeper design (which I still need to make proper art of oug)… “for what reason?” you may ask, and to that I say…! [STARTS RUNNING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION]
