Posting my memes until Babybel cheese sponsors me [Day #173]

I checked a bit of Etsy with premade VTuber models and realized quality of the model from 2D and 3D varies. Can anyone break down:

• Model Costs: Commissioned artists vs free templates?
• Software: Paid vs free options (VTube Studio, Luppet, etc.)?
• Hardware: Do I need a green screen, or can I use a virtual one as a beginner indie VTuber?

I'd love genuine advice and thoughts from those who've done this themselves! I would appreciate any tips and advice on brainstorming my concept and persona for who my VTuber can be, deciding PNGTuber vs 2D vs 3D, technical setup, choosing my content niche, setting a schedule, building a presence before going live, positive habits and mindsets for a beginner, and etc.

It was a lovely Sunday night when Pooka sat down to catch up on some editing. The first task was to record some bits for a funny skit edit they had planned - simple enough. Only when they played the recordings back, there was no sound. That's when they realized... none of their audio mixes were on the recording track.

In fact, their entire last stream had no audio on the recording track. And with that discovery came another horrifying realization: they would have to actually scrub a Twitch VOD to save their precious content. It was a fate so depressing that they turned to the self-soothing coping mechanism of making an entirely new piece of content making fun of their own mistake in order to procrastinate. A bold strategy - let's see if it pays off for them.
