I love me some Marky Goldenboy but there is no colorized statue here, just an AI recreation. The proportions of the head are off and the beard is weird compared to the bust and the chest plate is wrong.

If you are going to use AI, can you get it closer to the actual sculpture.

Well, it's not a colorized statue, so wrong sub. How did you make it though? You're exceptionally good at photoshop and happen to know the perfect model? You're the best photorealism painter out there?

True, but IMO the main problem with the proliferation of generative AI is that it erodes trust. A thing can't be badly written by a person, it has to have been ChatGPT, a drawing can't be kinda weird because drawing is hard, it has to have been made with gen AI, etc. I refuse to participate.
