What is ProjektKawaii
The landscape of today's world is not a welcoming place; people who choose to pursue different styles of art are heckled and forced off platforms because of their choice.
DeviantArt, Twitter, and Facebook. These are just a few sites that banned me for even daring to post; couple that with false DMCA strikes, and you have a hotbed for getting banned right off the platform. I got tired of trying to engage and putting money down for memberships only to be treated like trash, but more on that later.

Question #1: What is ProjektKawaii?
Simply put, this is my safe haven to display my art without bias. It also doubles up as a portfolio for future projects and for control over what I can post without fear of being banned.
I also needed a place I could really flesh out my characters and worldbuilding through my blogs; I can't do that anywhere else. I tried to do the social media thing, but people made me lose my will to share publicly. I know I should just ignore it, but it's just so damn hard.

Question #2: How much AI do you use in your art?
It seems that everyone only cares about AI in a negative way. AI for an artist like me does not take away my craft; it only helps me shape what I need. Let me explain.
Yes, I do use AI in my art. How much of it I will explain. In a future post I will go into detail on the process of my ART workflow. As for A.I., I use it for ideas and worldbuilding.
The characters are Genesis 8 Female Models from DAZ3D. The models got extracted and brought into Blender. I pose the models, set the environment with assets from DAZ3D, and I render them all out in Octane Render.
AI is also responsible for polishing up my films. I use Adobe Premier to make the films, and AI takes that film and makes things smooth, such as jerky animations. I am very new to animating and have a hard time with keyframes. AI helps me smooth out those keyframes. Does that make sense? NO, AI does NOT do all my work, as people out there believe. I use AI as a helpful tool, not to do my work for me.

But overall I am leaning into AI a lot more, trying to learn it's system and staying ahead of the curve. I know AI isn't everyone's cup of tea, I get it. I don't want to be harassed over it either.
Question #3: Who are your characters, Where did they come from?
The characters are Genesis 8 Female Models from DAZ3D. My main three, Sophie, Kinzie, and Kyoko, are characters I made back when Genesis 8 was new. I was using DeviantArt heavily as a platform then. When I got permanently banned, I lost all of my work. All of my scenes are gone; I had a new computer, and I didn't think to back up my data. -_- Sophie was my first, followed by her sister Kinzie, and later, during my East Chapter, Kyoko was introduced. Profiles, backgrounds, and backstories will be explained soon. Now that I have my own website, I can work on all this without fear of having my work removed.
Question #4: What about Your Subscription Service, Where are your NSFW Images now?
I still retained some of the old NSFW images but am working on new art. NSFW images will not be displayed here. This portfolio site will remain safe. I will start selling them in packs based on character. Please allow me some time to get them made and find a suitable marketplace to sell them.
