>someone THIS good barely has 1k followers
It's all just luck, isn't it?

>>7625170 (OP)
It's boring. Get better taste.

>>7625170 (OP)
Yeah.
Ive seen people on Pixiv (the platform that actually works) 10x better than me that dont get the recognition they deserve.
Its really all luck.

>>7625170 (OP)
This looks AI assisted. That lightning and shading doesn't make any sense on their bodies

>>7625176
They post their black and whites though
>>7625171
Weak bait, move on crab
>>7625172
Just found this person too, I expected the usual 500k followers/50k/m patreon bucks but no

>>7625176
Weve reached a point where people arent even ALLOWED to just be bad, if anyone sucks or makes a mistake its just "AI" now.
Jesus Christ.

What is the fixation of twitter coomer artists with princess peach?

>>7625183
Breaking news, vanilla is a popular flavor, and a good one too.

>>7625185
I mean, she is a character that for me when I was a kid was just there, irelevant, just the princess you save at the end of the mario game. Never crossed my mind that lots of people looked to her and felt the urge to jerk off to her lol.

>>7625170 (OP)
Do AI users not understand that hypersaturation causes their already low intrinsic value art to lose value? Let's give the benefit of the doubt and say hypothetically this artist didn't use AI to assist their art, what's the difference between this and the 500,000 and rapidly growing iterations of Nintendo goon slop? There's nothing special about this unless it's your first day on the internet or a Nintendrone looking for a quick wank.

>>7625182
It's just the typical AI witch hunt. If something isn't 100% perfect it's somehow AI, yet at the same time people act like AI always looks bad and makes mistakes.
As if everyone has always drawn perfect hands, feet and shadows etc. before AI.

>>7625170 (OP)
A lot of it is luck, a lot of it is sycophancy, a lot of it is trend chasing. Some of it is chasing sex appeal.
>>7625182
If it were super rendered he'd say the same thing. AI derangement syndrome keeps spreading lol

You'd think someone that renders at this level would understand shadows. Other than this being an obvious bait thread, this is unoriginal slop with no compelling narrative other than unga bunga. It's painfully uninspired slop. AI or not. Of course, you'd expect more from AI users given they have the most powerful tool to exist for idea creation at their disposal yet here we are, so I'm actually hoping this isn't AI assisted because otherwise the implications are even worse.

He doesn't disclose that he's using ai. I went ahead and reported him on Pixiv.

Ai aside, that's a shit eating groomer.

>>7625170 (OP)
The lines are very grainy and pixelated for some reason. Also the arrangement of the legs bothers me, I cant tell if they are touching each other or not.

>>7625170 (OP)
It looks too generic; indistinguishable from all the other anime slop around

here's how these threads go

>its not ai
>okay it is ai but who cares?

>>7625170 (OP)
it has that uncanny look you get with AI, probably an AI paintover

>>7625182
True lol. And it's usually begs and nodraws that does it

>>7625179
i mean how long have they been around? maybe it's a new account or something

>>7625170 (OP)
it's ai trace
>but muh "sketches"
are enough to fool you apparently. that's a fraud, stop shilling him

>>7625349
see that's the funny thing, it goes from one spic artist with this very same nickname drawing god-awfull loud house nsfw fanart to suddenly this one popping up end of last year and dropping suspicious stuff in terms of quantity and consistency. I'm sure it's a coincidence or that person somehow did a hyperbolic time chamber asian jeans super grind.

>>7625179
It's probably still AI. Obviously not just generate and post, but he conveniently started late last year like a bunch of AI accounts. He also posts 2-3 images every few days which feels like a lot and his artstyle often matches the anime/characters arstyle way too much without having his own.
There are a few accounts like this in the last few months. And they always turn out to be spics and often retweet eachother.
And WIP stages can always be created from the finished AI image.

>>7625170 (OP)
This is probably AI traced but whatever.

It's boring.

The account is only 6 months old. 1k ain't bad from nothing in that time. Shit's a snowball.
And they don't seem to be doing a whole lot to expose it to potential fans. No retweeting anybody, only replies are to comments on their own posts so it's only to people who have already seen it. Can't see likes anymore but if there's no retweets then I'm gonna assume they're not liking other posts either. This stuff is important, otherwise how else is somebody supposed to find the posts? Searching for them?
It's not "all just luck". There's plenty one can do to expose good artwork to people who want to see it, this person just hasn't done any of it *except make this thread I guess.

>>7625170 (OP)
>It's all just luck, isn't it?
The problem with this artist is that he arrived very late to the party, lewd Mario princess art was all the rage during the Wii era but not anymore.

No it's not, fuck you pussy. Pic related, that's you.

Even the most advanced AI sloppa models like GPT-4 and NAI v3 still suck at making images with more than 2 characters, let alone 3 of them interacting with a partially visible vehicle.

>>7625578
Bait used to be believable

It looks like AI because a lot of what is going on in that image makes no sense.

>>7625170 (OP)
Generic patreon art, can barely tell it apart from default settings free AI

>>7625170 (OP)
it kinda is luck. but it's also demographic. if you're posting fotm goonslop, you're competing with the other million people doing the same exact thing at pretty much the same skill level. there's nothing that stands out in this piece, no distinct style and boring composition. either get good (like really good) or get an interesting style and aim for a more niche demographic that you resonate with more

OP here. I have to agree on a lot of these points made so I took another look at this person's art and their accounts. They are a little too good at emulating the very different styles of source material. They also seem to be pushing really hard that they are a japanese girl. I tried talking to them when they were online but they refused to respond. I suspect you guys are right and this is just some dude trying over and over to run AI accounts without disclosing his use of AI... which is really fucking faggy. So my bad on this one /ic/.

>>7626253
I also noticed that a lot of AI accounts go out of there way to constantly post WIP before and after every image they post. Which just feels like an "look guys it's totally real!" attempt.

>>7626253
Well now you know. People really are fucked up out there, artists that burn out or are demoralized end up using AI and trying to restart their online identity.

>>7625170 (OP)
social media marketing is a major portion of it
consistency matters a lot more than quality due to user activity times and discovery algorithms
you're far more likely to "blow up" if you post subjectively mediocre work every single day or even every other day at the exact same time than you are by posting high quality work sporadically throughout a month
like many things, luck is a factor, but some make their own luck by playing the numbers game
