I am exploring the "convenient censorship" concept, I think this is very hot in some way because the 99% of the image is here, and you know what is hidden and your imagination comes to help 'inpainting' the missing bit. Like a missing jigsaw puzzle piece.

I've seen a remotely similar post on Reddit a long time ago with Lynx girl holding a plush teddy bear in a similar way and people didn't like it exactly because she was covering her abdomen area. I wonder how my implementation would be received by the community, and I would love to get feedback on it.

As of technical background of this project, experimenting with "Soft inpainting" parameters turned out to be very rewarding. Bringing the "Transition contrast boost" value from 4 (default) to 2 and the "Difference contrast" from 2 (default) to 1.5 has yielded much, much better blending in the ceiling area and I had less inpaint seams to fix manually.
