Good afternoon.
I’m not looking for applause or for anyone to take my side. I just want to be clear and responsible, to say what’s true. There are probably already rumors that I use AI… and yes, that’s not a lie. But they don’t tell the whole story.
I used it only as a reference for rendering techniques, along with real-world references. All the lineart and sketches are completely mine. When I reached a more detailed render, I needed guides, references, and that’s when AI came in. It’s not an excuse, it’s the truth. I admit that letting it cloud my judgment was a mistake. It made me feel that nothing I did was enough, and the more I tried to “look perfect,” the more it resembled an AI render, without actually being one. That weighed on me so much that I ended up working only in flat color, until I couldn’t anymore.
I know how to render, but digital results were consuming me. So I’m taking a hiatus. I’ll go back to traditional methods, detach from that obsession, and look for a new rendering style that is truly mine.
If you feel disappointed, if you decide to step away, I understand and respect it. But the difference is that I won’t run. I’ll face it. And for those who have commissioned work from me: everything has been legitimate, handmade. If you believe otherwise, you have the right to a refund.
In the end, this isn’t about AI or techniques; it’s about integrity. And even if the world wants you to hide your mistakes, I prefer to walk with them, because that’s where what truly matters is born.
Again, I apologize. I’ll work hard to improve. I’m grateful to those who choose to stay, and I respect those who step away. But remember this: truth and honesty aren’t always popular… but they’re the only things that leave something that truly lasts.
Thank you.
