This is an illustration I created for my AI Tails cover song “Looking closely,” which has been published on UTB.
The song is a fan work of the “Touhou Project,” produced by the circle Diao Ye Zong and sung by Meramipop. I’m not a hardcore Touhou fan, as I haven’t played many of the official games (most of them are too difficult for me), but my first MMD video was actually Touhou-themed.
This song is so good that I couldn’t resist having Tails cover it—and I did just that. Since this song is originally Shameimaru Aya’s song, I had Tails cosplay as her in the illustration.
And I must say, Tails looks pretty awesome in the crow tengu outfit…φ(>ω<*)
———— Lore ———— Tails：I am the righteous and upright new intern fox reporter, Tails! Spill all your knowledge, experiences, and feelings to me, as I strive to make tomorrow’s headlines!
Alaya-Vijnana▷ Why do you still spin your tails to fly when you have wings?
Tails：I’m here to interview you, not the other way around!
(Under the careful guidance of Aya, Tails’ peculiar habit of using his tails to fly despite having wings became the headline of the next day’s Bunbunmaru News. It quickly became the talk of Gensokyo, with everyone laughing about it over tea. However, intern Tails himself became the scapegoat in the fake news scandal and was fired.)
Tails: Why?!??? ———— ————
I use a complex workflow to convert 3D images into a final product using AI. I will publicly upload the final product images, semi-finished images, and original material images.
Given the intricate and complex nature of this workflow, although I can provide prompts, they are essentially of no referential value.
