how the sand really gets hot

So, the background looks AI drawn, I assume that's suppose to be a blanket? Is the character AI drawn as well? I see lots of artifacts around the edges, and some areas that look 'cleaned'. Maybe I'm just miss-reading compression artifacts.

This is not an AI drawn background or character. I do not know which artifacts you consider as AI ones.

Balls and hot sand aren't exactly the best combination...

I genuinely feel sorry for a ton of artists on this site and everywhere else online, because so many people like you constantly accuse them of just using AI to make their art.

Does it? It doesn't look drastically different from the backgrounds this artist drew 4 years ago.

I'm happy to point out what looks AI to me. The blanket edge appears to break and reform. Around the ears you have a sharp transition point between fuzzy and clear it looks like it was manually corrected. Around the edge of the antlers I see 'wobbling' that looks like two 'information domains' fighting for dominance. A common AI artifact. Not that artists don't do either of those occasion, I just see it with AI all the time. It's a pretty big flag to me.

My question wasn't meant as an insult. I don't think AI is bad, and I don't think you should be ashamed if you did you use it. You said you didn't so I believe you. I'm sorry if this came off the wrong way and wasn't trying to accuse you of anything, just asking.

There's nothing wrong with using AI to make art, but it's not allowed on this site. I saw artifacts that are frequently produced by AIs, they're basically crystal deformations in how the image grows.

Asking an artist if they used a tool that appears to have been used, to me, isn't an insult. It's a question.

I think I understood what was interpreted as AI - Blur and Sharpen Tools. Shorts edges just form folds.
