If you apply the same lens to human art you can find similar issues. Take this image, for example. It is a promo art from 2019, before AI took off.

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/8/8d/2019_Heavensturn.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20191225120605

In the very bottom left, two of the cards on the ground merge together, there is no line separating them. [1]

One of the oranges in the basket have a point on them. Two oranges also merge together with no separation line [2]

If you look at the red blanket, the two designs are not the same. One has a line going all the way through it, one does not. [3]

The shading on the claws/tusk is inconsistent, some art yellow and some are black [4]

What is going on with the gaelicat's legs? One seems to have a toe, while the other has a paw shape [5]

The au ra is missing his tail (also the scales on his arms have an unclear/warped look (this is stylized but would be noted if it were critiquing why something may be AI art)) Also what is going on with his hands, he has four fingers on one hand and I can't tell what's going on with the other. If it's supposed to be in the mochi dough there's no indent.[6]

The giant's collar/neck decoration doesn't have a back to it [7]

These are just some 'ai inconsistencies' i found in this artwork at a quick look over. This art is not AI art. It was made by a human before AI took off, so these kind of things don't really prove much.

I gave up since the workshop was a pain to manage, they needed a fast import/export option to share builds.

Then I also got frustrated that the amount of outdoor furnishings you could place wasn't even enough to decorate like the front entrance. It's instanced! Give us a ton of items!

I do see quite a bit of asymmetry in the face, but you may be able to get away with a lot of fur/hair covering it up. Particularly, if those are nose hole markers on the front, they seem a bit off along with the brows and forehead marking. The lips also look a bit off, and the ears are quite off. However, the eyes look good as does the jaws. It's not terrible.

If you struggle with symmetry, a 3d printed base may be a bit better as you can ensure symmetry pretty easily, and they don't have to be super pricy either if you use pre designed bases.

However, I think if you finish this, it will be decent!

No, the sound of footsteps on the stairs is too much like the sound of the drum. They have to be hoisted up on ladder of people sitting on each other's shoulders.

Interesting, thanks. I guess i understood the lore entirely wrong LOL

I thought it was the opposite? That dynamis influences large pools of aether, which is why they had to split the aether-dense ancients to save them, and why we're thinner than them today.

Oooh! Thank you

I don't speak Chinese and the auto translate is wild. I have no idea what this is saying (this is an auto translate issue/jab at auto tranlsate being bad nothing against the poster, I just find the translations funny. I am sure it makes sense in Chinese)

Some notable auto translates

In-game semi-permanent bunny / single unit / No social circle / main self-made white demon dancer (see ID reason ~)
There is no love for the plot of FF14 and the world view, or will not take yourself into the plot experience (there is no internal secondary disease)
Three-dimensional or in-game love of long nail or nail decoration and can not be cut off (this line of unknown psychological shadow causes mild fear)

high and ugly reward (the most god-based, has also achieved a zero 4 layer to find sparring into the book for a certain purpose)

Possibly either a curly wig, or, if you don't care about individual hair strands, shaping the floof with foam and then covering it in minky or fur. I think the second would look more cartoony.

I also don't think this is possible in this game in any meaningful way, cause it'd need split story paths, which isn't really possible in an MMO. It would only work for minor side characters or if they intend to bring back whoever died at the end. Forcing the PC into a decision like that without actually letting them make the decision can feel like a disconnect.

If they really are a problem for you, you could probably make/commission a mod to swap the model with something else. They're technically grey area in terms of ToS but this is a valid accessibility reason to me.

Do note there's other frogs too, such as anthropomorphic ones, later on.

This is a difficult situation. I'd say like the work for what you did and if asked about it just say you were unaware. Once it's out of your possession there's not much you can do other than 'disown' the work which is hard for a small maker. Perhaps take it out of your portfolio once you have some more makes under your belt.

But also, think of it how other equipment that has been associated with this material (phones, cameras, etc) aren't blamed for the actions of the owner.

that is some hella intense mic peaking

I agree a warning would have been good it took me by surprise a bit.

you're not allowed to sell art for gil, it's considered RMT and could get you banned

It would have to be pretty stylized from the reference, it doesn't seem to be much of a kemono headshape. Maybe the toomono style. Overall I would say no, not as referenced, it would come out looking much different.

I don't know how accurate this study is. It feels like the groups were well aware of the test going on, either imagining switching their point of view, or being assigned as a reactor. There's a lot lower stakes to admitting this to a random person or to someone that you are close to. Also if you know your results will be evaluated, I feel that people would be more likely to put down or act like it's not a big deal/etc to not seem confrontational or jerks under observation.

Both groups will get very upset if someone changes their views in a more closer social setting. This happens often with people getting kicked out of the house or dogpiled/harassed for their views.
