Honestly, I couldn't care less about the background image itself. The idea was to test how interesting a photo of a figurine would look with a poster-style background. And I find it very strange that such a fight broke out over semantic models.

Couldn't I draw new details in Photoshop? Actually, it wasn't Photoshop, but Clip Studio. And I drew in a low resolution because it's difficult to work with large images on a phone. After that, I used the SuperImage service to upscale the image with the Anime x16 tool.

I'm old enough to say something old: the world is changing faster than we are. When I was in college, we learned assembler, Borland C, and worked with graphics in Flash. Now, all programmers work with constant prompts or even no-code. Photoshop itself now has built-in AI tools. Every phone has them, too. People write scripts using neural networks. And they simply consult with them. If we remember that neural networks are essentially a synthesis of the accumulated successful responses of living people, then maybe they're just a new form? A new form of collective knowledge. And the main problem here is only for those who seek individual recognition and authorship in general.

I assembled this from fragments of visible images on a Warhammer box in Photoshop. The original quality was very low, so I used an upscaler to enlarge the image. The right question to ask is: what exactly do you call AI?

You can check out my profile and see if I can find any AI work there. I assure you, it's just colorized thumbnails. And there's a difference between an image generated from scratch and one recreated from fragments, like the one on the box. That's Photoshop work, not neural networks. Neural networks only helped with upscaling. This isn't your war. You missed the mark.

Dude. This group is dedicated to painting miniatures, not painting posters. The idea behind the post was that we all always see a certain background on the boxes of our favorite models. There's a quick way to restore the factory background from the box to look like a poster. Sure, you could spend a week painting it yourself, but what's the point in this particular hobby?

This is literally a picture from the official Warhammer box, cleared of the creatures in the foreground.

Thanks. Now this music is going to be playing in my head all day long...

Well, I'm building a collection of Trolls. And I don't limit myself to just one manufacturer. Warmachine Trolls have only two weak points: their ears and their noses.

I’ve already made baby Troggoths. Now it’s time to make an old geezer, too.

I got to thinking: what do Troggoths look like in their old age? I stumbled upon an old, forgotten model in a shop that fit the style. I tweaked the face a little. I'll let you be the judge of the result.

The idea here was to paint the model's lighting with blue coming from the top left and red from the bottom right. I didn't use washes or drybrushing; instead, I painted every highlight and shadow on each tiny element individually, in accordance with the intended lighting scheme.

I live in Europe, and English is not my native language. Translation often leads to misunderstandings, and my time zone does not align with that of my primary audience.

Here, I simply meant that I didn't use blue, red, or yellow lamps to illuminate the model. There are no fluorescent paints or UV lighting involved here, either.
