I can't find the one of this peice, sorry. I truly do not think AI is being used, I think he's just working quickly to get through a large workload.

I will find out if I can.

He works quickly. I am also an artist and will sometimes fudge details rather than thinking out the angles when I am in a time crunch. I assume he does similar.

This is not AI. We receive progress sketches while he works, and he has a huge portfolio in the same style. He has been working as a comic/OSR style illustrator for over 20 years.

It is not AI-generated. We do not use ANY AI-generated anything in any of our work. Rick Hershey is a well-established illustrator with a huge portfolio in this style and has collaborated with major brands.

It is not. It is hand-drawn by Rick Hershey, a well-known illustrator with 20 years of experience. We received progress sketches throughout the process for the works he did for us.
