aa, yess, thank you for confirming it, because i thought the same when i visited the sub and i wondered if this was the norm.

you know, i can see why cute girls in anime style are comfort for many people. but it may not be comfortable for other people, and it should be respected, especially if anime girls came later than the original subreddit approach.

maybe there could be two subreddits: one for general tastes and other for anime girl comfort, more waifu oriented, but not going straight to hentai lol.

in my case, if i ever do illustrations for this subreddit, i would prefer to make them POV or purely environmental, like scenes, rooms, 2D adaptations of real places i know, maybe with some ambiental little animations (ex. water flowing, light changing from a window).

and people would not have recognizable features, they would be have a "crowd" design.

maybe even environmental sounds could be added for ASMR audiovisual versions of those images, so you could have graphic and audio ASMR. but illustrations would be the main focus.

i am interested into creating mindful worlds for resting and meditation via 3D, Unreal Engine and VR, and illustrations like this one the OP drew are perfect for concept art.

but these are just ideas for me to take into account.

thank you again, and have a nice day!

there are some real nice ones in the sub along the lines of what you've described with the environment focused aesthetics!

But you should definitely post your art, would love to see more cozy everyday environments!

damn damn damn, such lovely art pieces. automatically bookmarked.

you know, i almost mispell and say "art peaces" and i doubted for a second, because this really was the expression i should have written lol

thank you so much for sharing them!

yeah, for now, i am trying to do an animation, so currently i am designing the characters.

but my bro has Oculus and i plan to learn Unreal and modeling to create stylized 2D-like environments like these you posted.

the goal would be creating "mindfulness" experiences in "VR safe spaces" or whatever.

if i ever do any of them, they would be free ofc.
