What is your biggest impact on the vtubing community?
I'd like to say mine is from my youtube videos on vtuber design, but it might actually be introducing people to Virtual Face w/ one of these videos:
I'm makin' a lil video on how to set up Virtual Face b/c there's been a lot of interest in it since I mentioned it in a video a couple weeks ago.
Would anyone who has used it before be alright w/ being in the thumbnail for my tutorial?
OK Y'ALL WANNA DO THIS TOO!?
Wanna use your vtuber model on your real body??
I've got a Virtual Face tutorial for ya w/ some tips, so go nuts (the only way you can this month lmao) 🌟🥜
(plus...a bonus giveaway? oh? 👀 you'll have to go see for yourselves)

Thank you all so much for coming 🧡
Y'all made it such a wonderful debut stream, I can't wait to come back tomorrow to hang out w/ y'all some more and use all the shiny new stuff (:
🍄Here I am in all my 2.0 Glory
Would any vtuber mutuals perchance be interested in a collab where you get to talk about an interest to your heart's content while I draw you fanart of it?👀🎨
I know next to nothing about pop culture, anime, or games post 2015, please help me😭🙏
🍄✒️SQUIIJI'S 2.0 DEBUT🍄✒️
🗓️July 22nd at 6pm EST
Just shy of a year in the making, we'll have a new model, overlays, emotes, and MORE to show off!
I'd love it if you could come! 🧡
(this video is brought to you by 0% budget and 100% silly)
LETS GOOOOOOO 🍄🧡
I can't believe I made it to Affiliate before my 2.0 debut, I'm so stoked!!
Thank you guys to much, I can't wait to get some sick redeems set up to reward you all ☺️🧡
In 2023 I decided to start putting myself and my 3D work out there more, and couldn't be happier w/ how it's been going ☺️
Honored to have gotten to work on so many fun voxel and lowpoly models this year, so here's to many more next year!🍄🧡
#artvsartist2023
Most vtuber "logos" are really much more similar to anime or light novel titles than they are to a logo
If ya wanna hear my thoughts, I made a video on it last fall, but note that while I am an artist, I'm NOT a graphic designer lmao
🔗⬇️
As someone who majored in graphic design, has worked in the industry and has worked on a lot of branding jobs…
There are a lot of REALLY bad logos in the vtuber scene. Like.. a lot of ppl who do logo commissions clearly don’t know shit about effective logo design
In true teacher fashion I made a rubric for my vtuber design critique stream last night because I like clear criteria lmao
For reference, I'd only give my current model a 6/10😅
My 2.0 gets a 9 though...👀
I'm so unbelievably thrilled by how much our lil' community is growing ☺️🧡
As a result, I'm looking to expand the mod teams for my Youtube, Twitch, and Discord!
If you'd be interested in volunteering, you can fill out the form here:
Y'ALL WHAT THE HECK THANK YOU 😭🧡☺️
I had my first video ever reach 100k views the same day as I hit 10k on youtube, these are such insane numbers to me, I'm so amazed by the support I've received from so many people!! Thank you all so much! 🧡🧡
Silhouette Check! 🍄
The character designer in me is THRILLED that this is going around rn
How about a lil 1.0 vs future 2.0 comparison?👀
Do ya think you could recognize me?

Omg thank y'all so much for 20k on Youtube?!
Like that is such an unfathomable number to me, I'm so lucky and grateful to have all of your support 🧡😭
What's this?
The Video Essayist posts their first Video Essay in 90 days?
It's more likely than you think 😅
Come hear about my pet peeves w/ vtuber design as an art educator!

OMG AGAIN!? TY 😭🧡
Another 100k video!! I'm never gonna get over the sheer amazement that somewhere around ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND people cared enough about what I have to say to listen in 🥲
Amid some very tough weeks in vtubing, y'all make it all feel worth it, thank you 🧡☺️
New video!
It's less art related than usual, instead it's about some of the things I felt in the dark about when I started vtubing 😵💫
Now, years later, I find myself reiterating a lot of it to friends who want to start, so I figure it's worth a video! 🧡

Okay so I got my mocopi working w/ slimeVR and learned a dance I've since been informed is fortnite-related to test it lmao
Now, who wants to help grandma figure out how VRChat works😅
I'm a tad late BUT
I'M SO EXCITED TO START THE NEW YEAR W/ YOU ALL!! 🧡
2023 was lovely, I met so many awesome people & made so many fun videos & models, I can't wait to see what 2024 brings😊
I hit 5k here and 7.5k on YouTube in the last few days too, thank you all SOSO much!
In light of some relatively recent events and being "She/Her"-ed kinda often lately, I wanted to bring back one of my favorite edits as a reminder that I'm Nonbinary!🧡
They/Them only, if you'd please😊
Thank you for all the support on my voxel models!🍄

DANG Hello there!👋
So many new faces here, it's nice to meet you all!
I figure I should prolly introduce myself!
I'm Squiiji (or you can call me Iiji), an Inky-Cap Mushroom Vtuber who 3D models and rambles about art and vtubing on YouTube🍄
Thank you all for your support!🧡🧡
Hi, I'm Iiji! I've been busy w/ my MFA so I don't have much new, BUT for
#PortfolioDay
I offer you evidence that I've been 3D modeling in secret👀
Classic "big things coming" situation here (:
Heres the document of the picrews if you just wanna see that:
I'd appreciate it if you still watched the video and validated the hours I spent putting it together 🥹
By combination of an unpleasant number of transphobic messages and also receiving 15-20 dms from new people every day asking for character design critiques, I've closed my DMs.
🍄HAPPY DAY OF THE MUSHROOM!🍄

January 2023 vs January 2024!
Went from
"What if: mushroom screen printer vtuber???"
to
"3D artist and Youtube Vtuber getting a 2.0 design in ~3 months" 👀👀👀
January 2023 Vs January 2024
My old model served me well for a while, but I've gotten some amazing upgrades with the new one 🤩
Wand, Watson, expressions.
(I can also take the gloves and jacket off 🥹)
I got 600k+ views on my virtual face tweets and they super duper breached containment into the non-vtuber sphere lmao 😅
Hope my video essay content can do that some day too, that's the goal!
Okay so does anyone else have the issue where their irl name is shared by a bunch of vtubers (including ones you interrect with) so you live in fear of accidentally answering to it in a collab or call or something???
Is this just a me thing?
Shock your followers w/ facts about you!
🔸I'm a blackbelt in Northern Shaolin Kung Fu
🔸I've made 2 illustrations for official Square Enix publications
🔸I'm allergic to mangos & 90% of toothpastes
🔸Broke a glowstick into my eyes once, glowing eyes aren't worth it I promise 😅
Lmao the way my for you page was like "look how many people posted w/ virtual face in the last day or so" as soon as I asked this, I'm glad y'all are figuring it out!!
LETS GOOOOOOO 🍄🧡
I can't believe I made it to Affiliate before my 2.0 debut, I'm so stoked!!
Thank you guys to much, I can't wait to get some sick redeems set up to reward you all ☺️🧡
Hey if you're someone who is generally still streaming on Youtube after 10-11:30 pm EST
PLEASE I BEG YOU
Drop me your youtube here, I almost never get to raid out because I can't find anyone that's still live that late 😭
JUST finished this model on the eve before classes/teaching start back up again.
Let's see how long I can hold out on teasers b/c lemme just say
I COOKED

@AmaruKrosis
for the raids Monday Night!
Unfortunately I've reached a point where I can't keep up w/ DM's about character design, and my crit form for it is at 350 entries rn, so it's becoming impossible to get to everyone 🥲
For videos I can only do 5 per, and I may stream crits in the future to get through more but-
Had to wait to post until after I showed them but I drew my partner and I for Valentines day🧡
Thank you for always being my biggest supporter and tolerating my vtuber antics, I love ya to the moon and back🌙
My sentiment here stands!
If you need a PNGtuber model for free, I just added a bunch more picrews to my masterlist of ones you can use that have commercial permissions! 🧡
They work really well as fugis for discord too👀
Here's some samples of the new ones:

And if you're wondering what happened/why I made this, I was recording for another video and saw
‼️six (6) SIX‼️
Pngtuber models on Twitch what were AI generated, and recently a lot of AI pngtuber models and other art were being found on VGen (which violates their TOS too)😠
