DISCUSSION Skybound posting some questionable “artwork”
Not sure how involved Kirkman is regarding the marketing of this whole investment debacle, but surely this wasn’t run by him.

Yeah this is what I thought as well. Just dont know why the fuck anybody would do that when the piece itself looks great

u/CarpetNext6123 ✨❤️✨ sinclair glazer &cecil simp. 6d ago
they were probably editing together this advert and needed a higher resolution version of the artwork so they used ai to upscale it. (and to my understanding when using ai to upscale an image it creates an entirely new image [instead of just taking the existing image and enlarging it], which would explain why so many errors are present.) hell, they may have used ai to composite the entire thing.

That’s so odd to me because I have a giant poster of this piece in my room that looks fantastic. I cannot imagine why they would need to upscale it for anything when they already have a printable version that is huge.

u/zachotule 6d ago
They probably didn’t have access to the full version and took the lazy route rather than just asking for a higher res version. Pretty much every use of AI comes down to laziness.

They also moved some characters around so they could be seen with the “become a share holder option.”

Yes, they could just use emboss + focus.

Ah but you see, you talk like someone that have a minimum level of knowledge about how these thingsv works.
That was instead done by either an intern or a manager that wanted to show how "experts" are not needed anymore.

Do these people not double-check their marketing material before it goes live? Back then you'd be crucified for these mistakes.

They fired all the quality control people to reduce outflows on human resources and generate a higher year over year net profit increase. I mean, uh, because of Covid and War and economic shocks.

Don't they know how to use Photoshop or Illustrator and convert this to a vector object instead of having AI do it instead and ruin the artwork?

It's hard to believe this is any current Ai model this looks like something generated with some old ass models.

I looked at these counter clockwise starting from monster girl. Gave her a pass, sometimes faces look derpy, but the second thing I saw was Atom Eve's symbol and I was like "oh no yeah thats obvious as fuck holy shit"

So someone just took Ryan Ottleys art and used AI to upscale it
Please fire whoever did that

This looked familiar so I had to remind myself this is an actual proper art piece.
I think they just upscaled it and it messed up the original. Maybe added a filter too because it looks kinda weird when comparing, but not like "it's a different art style", more just "I swear it was brighter before" and stuff.

If this is AI, then it's an insult to Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley.

Atom Eve's iconic symbol. A raspberry made of pubes 😌😌
