💥TRIPLE SHOWDOWN 🥊
comm: @viocottontail.bsky.social

Although 40 (43 specifically at the of writing) is a disappointingly large number of names, most of them are small accounts, like <1k followers, trying to gain a following by tracing AI. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

lol Waga shared that earlier

Thanks for letting me stream with you last night btw, funny coincidence that

I should just block you, but in case you're being sincere, even if you're trying to wiggle yourself free of accountability by claiming you stopped tracing, your entire online presence was built on it. I know a couple people you should refund for commissions because you didn't disclose your AI usage

They claim to not currently use it, but they've given no reason to trust them. They used it for years without disclosure and have shown contempt (see screenshots) by making sure they could pass their stuff off as legitimate while building their audience.

As much as I hate undisclosed AI use, I really disliked this person in particular because they've shown contempt for authenticity in art (telling people they could hide their AI use) and I've seen friends, who wouldn't have commed them if they had know, fall prey to it

There's a lot of tracing out there, the problem is it's really hard to prove and I'm not interested in doing call-outs without a smoking gun. We (myself and a few artists) have a list of about 40 names of almost-certain AI tracers but only five of them have ever had definitive proof come out

This isn't a new revelation by the way, these collages were made by someone else two years ago. They just had a large enough audience to stick up for them. You could go in their FurAffinity gallery and see where they started using AI lol. Not sure why it e6 two years but better late than never

e621 left up their pre-AI art, so they're not totally gone, but as of me typing this all their AI traced stuff is gone

Built their entire audience off tracing AI. They claim they don't use it now, but even if true, they used it for long enough and scammed enough people on commissions nobody should ever trust them. They have logs where they talk about how nobody will know they're tricking them

Old YCH for @manzanitacoyote.bsky.social

I feel you buddy, sometimes I put a ton of effort into my art only to get tepid receptions. Sometimes it's the subject, sometimes it's the idea; sometimes you just have to draw for yourself. FWIW I love this piece and reposted the original to do what I can to boost. Just gotta keep at it

One of my favorite angles 💕

A simple Drake/Lexy sketch.

I don't plan to finish it, but enjoy regardless.

Fierce and soft is the ultimate combination 💕I'm glad you like her!

The five Valkyrie sisters all together! Please check their individual posts for their detailed lore 💕

Who is your favorite?

As always, please let me know if there's anything you'd like to learn about them, or if you'd like to see something specific of any of them in more art!

She's the wild card, I love her too, so small and sassy

She's an angry little weasel (sable / marten, specifically) and the youngest of the Valkyrie so she's still getting a handle on her new powers! She bites...

I have her full lore written up over here if you'd like!: www.furaffinity.net/view/64145812/

And some of them are huge! Hildr is like 8 or 9 feet tall!

Vyldris, the fifth of the five Valkyrie sisters

Please check my FurAffinity for her lore, as it won't fit in the alt-text!: www.furaffinity.net/view/64145812/

I'll also post a compilation of all five Valkyries to show their size-differences (plus they look good together!)

[ #furry #furryart ]

A shortstack gryphon, Sigrun, smiles with her black beak while holding two axes and floats with her dark wings and dark feathers clad in mysterious purple attire. Her hair is woven and braided in some places and loose and feathery in others - it's a wonder how she flies with such an enormous chest and aerodynamically unstable hips

Valkyrie Sigrun, four of five!

Hildr, a big and slightly chubby brown bear Valkyrie wielding a dark iron hammer with orange runes and orange and brown attire covered in shining metal plates. She smiles fondly and gives off a warm demeanor

Day two of posting my five Valkyries, Hildr! The second Valkyrie and self-described matron of the Valiant Hall

Astrid, a beautiful blonde-haired wolf with bright white wings posting with her greatsword and a hand on her hip. Her orange creamsickle and white fur are adorned with shining plated armor and blue cloth stitched with silvery details resembling tree branches, representing the world tree. She has a soft smile and bright, blue eyes.

Day one of posting my five Valkyries, starting with the First Valkyrie herself, Astrid! I'll be posting all five over the week!

Thank you! She's really quite nice, despite being a battle maiden
