This looks like AI, too many details in the toes, rest of the foot, legs and knees. It would be a wonder to find one such turnip, let alone a matching one

It's too good for AI, but photoshop, maybe AI in photoshop idk...

Yeah, photoshop is also possible, but I think a human would have tried to make it at least believable (no nails on the toes for example)

I wonder if this an evolution of the square watermelons known in Japan.

I doubt you could make it have this level of details and I think that technique cannot be used for stuff that is grown in the soil

[-] wjrii@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

You're probably right, and this in particular seems to be a sculpture with a turnip plant glued on top, per @Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de

That def makes the most sense aside from Photoshop or AI.

I don't know much about growing produce, but I'd think making a mold for something that grows underground would be more difficult than something that grows on top of the soil.

*My bad- should have read previous comments closer. Good convo yall
