Imagine how hard drawing is tho, you gotta make a (usually) 3d image from flat lines on paper… literally creating depth and detail and texture from nothing. Art doesn’t come easy to most, so it’s rewarding and very human, and it’s why AI art will never be considered real by anyone serious. 😂

Who the fuck takes a look at a digital sculpture and says "that was a piece of cake"? Do you also look at famous paintings and say "anybody coulda done that"?
Yes. With time and energy and being depressed three days a week (with Naruto sad music in the background), I believe anybody can do it.
Believe it!
Oh brother, the hair, face muscles. Oh my goodness, THE ANIMATION! INDIVIDUAL LIMBS! groooooooan I should just stick back to writing (novels) and writing only.
i do a little environment art as a hobby (no you can't see it) and it's a goddamn nightmare. with how miserable the tools are it's astonishing to me anything ever gets done. if digital 2D art was that bad nobody would do it.
