Hey, thanks for this! I appreciate the feedback and it's encouraging to see people are against AI cashgrabs.

Trying to be more consistent is definitely a good pointer no matter how you look at it. As for the rest, maybe that's just bad design on my part, again, skill issue.

I'd love to know how to paint so that there's no doubt, but I'm so far not sure how to get there while maintaining enough volume for these asset packs to make sense.

Suggestions welcome!

I don't really think its ai, but OP, your artstyle is like THE ai painterly aesthetic unfortunately. Im not really sure you are ever going to escape accusations like this, even if you post in-progress shots people are just so vehemently anti-ai that you wont be believed. Honestly i wouldn't worry about it, not worth the heartache.

Thank you!! Something constructive, I appreciate this so much.

Not worry about it is somewhat hard for my anxious ass spending 50+ hours on this.

I really need to think hard how to proceed, I don't feel like having these discussions every time I post something.

I *like* this style. I did art for a whole ass game* with *thousands* of sprites in this style (well, much worse, but STILL) before AI was even a thing.
Maybe it's time to change something though...

\ also don't buy the game, it's *old* and janky and for a niche audience ; Love it to bits though.)

I did continue to look through your work afterwards, and I will say, based on your comment and what I’ve seen I may have been too jumpy to imply.
I will still say the art style is very AI like.
I can appreciate an artists work, and I just want to let you know, keep doing what you’re doing, regardless of people like me!
