Dude, I’m super proud of you! Tackling something like that with almost zero experience is fucking awesome, and the fact that you almost completely fnished it by yourself–100% solo, no less–is bad ass as hell.

Are you sure about that? I know that was the case with some recent AI-accused artists, but I haven’t seen this specific case mentioned.

The reason I ask is that:

A. There’s nothing I can find online. If you have a link, I’d love to be proven wrong.

B. After looking again art the image in question from January of this year, I don’t see any watermarks or AI tells (hands look perfect and natural, and I couldn’t spot any watermark residuals).
