@nprofile1q... This is a question I got asked a bunch of times in this time span (and I know you can see DMs, someone was very direct in confronting me about it). That time exactly was when I opened my media tab and saw the thumbnails of my three most recent pieces of art and went "Wow, I really am just painting by numbers here. Same angle, same faces, same low effort lighting/shading." I took a break from churning out POV slop and wanted to make art I could legitimately be proud of."
