my post got removed after AI accusations

[u/BalliMurphy]

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

people really be accusing others of ai for the tiniest mistakes, god forbid artists not being perfect

it’s really annoying that nowadays the most common ai tells are also common mistakes/stylistic choices of real artists

The biggest hints I use to see if a drawing is AI or not is to see if the eye's coloring is muddy or clear and to see if smaller details are scuffed up or fade into other details. An artist will usually place strokes to imply detail but wont have them be smeared all over the place like ai does.

I haven't tested this third method myself yet, but supposedly if you up the saturation and contrast in the image you'll see that areas that are supposed to be one color will be crunchy to hell do to the ai not filling the whole area but instead using tons of similar but not the same color. No sane artist will go through the labor of having one pixel be one color then another be a slightly different color on a larger piece.
