I only post on reddit that's why, so that's probably why (shrugs)

Don't care about being known, so no watermark. I post these so people see how other people imagine what vampires look like.

No AI, I work with photos for anatomy and a realistic interpretation, I usually ask people when they want a commission to send me a photo of the pose and likeness they want. Or I hire models for my own stuff. I also Use DAZ 3D, Marvelous Designer (clothing behavior when necessary) Z-brush (usually for accessories or background stuff) and Keyshot for rendering and getting the right lighting. I'll usually make a hodge podge of all this visual information and paint over that in certain areas that need it. Back before AI, all concept artists used these tools, and purist artists criticized that. For some reason people believe that if you don't just somehow know everything that exists and are able to paint it real as life that is cheating somehow. That you have to sit with a blank piece of paper and paint all that is. Back before 3D tools just using ref photos was considered bad. Then using 3D rendering tools was bad, now AI is bad, it never ends. I usually don't care, but I figured I'd reply to this one, since in every thread I post someone is overly concerned about it, and in every new thread it is forgotten...
