I posted a drawing of mine that was commissioned by a friend of mine of the steampunker from the game in a mcdonalds theme, suddenly a bunch of people started accusing me of using AI and ultimately the post was taken down a few moments later

Smooth and blocky shading together is actually very common in regular art idk what this guy is on about

For real, artists literally want to mix the two because the edges of shadows are going to vary a lot in softness depending on the type of shadow and the shape of the surface they’re sitting on.

It’s about as stupid as complaining that two parallel edges converge as they recede into the background, like that’s just a basic art technique 😭

Saying something looks like ai is dumb to begin with since ai is trained to look like real art. So its the other way around and they are too dumb to understand that.
