      the only proof we are this is her its a recent pic of her cat an old pic of her and the fact this is her mail adress

      plus she was gaining a lot more money before
      a scam for gaining less money ? strange
      sadly i think she is dead and the scamer is a related person to her, a friend or a family member is possible who make some money while destroying the reputation

    So, uhm... just from looking at her Facebook page, you can tell that is not her cat.
    And I can't see *any* updates on her after she left Riot. So unless someone can contact her family, we can safely assume that she might not be with us anymore, and this person is a scammer pretending to be her.

  • @whoahanant
    @whoahanant 2 місяці тому +10

    Sometimes I will hop around parts of my art and do some certain spots but all of them stay at the same "phase" as I would call it.
    If I did one part in some basic flat colors then I wouldn't move onto anything else until the entire character is COMPLETELY flat colored. From there you go onto whatever next step of the rendering you choose.
    To do random parts in various stages of rendering is a good way to have mistakes crop up far more and you needing to erase entire parts to fix it more often. You can't really visualize how it all cohesively fits together when parts aren't planned in tandem to other parts.

    • @amethyst-rp
      @amethyst-rp 2 місяці тому

      Same. I've only ever started shading without doing everything in flat colours if it's grey (I always have a grey background so sometimes miss anything I'm colouring that's grey lol) but other than that I always do all my flat colours first. And background always comes before rim lighting.

    How sad. I really admired Michelle since the early 2000s, sort of stopped keeping up after like 2014 or so, though. Her style and rendering seemed to change a bit, at least to a degree that I didn't like as much as her earlier works. Still she is a really talented artist. I'm really disappointed to see she'd possibly use AI. :(
    Edit: If her account and identity really was compromised, I hope something can be done. The style of the alleged AI piece doesn't match hers at all, and she wasn't one to skimp on details of a character either, so it is really troubling.

    Among all the things you pointed out with the art being AI, one of the bigest things for me was the inconsistant lighting, before the rendering with the wings and background. If the lighting was from the back, then both sides of the hat should have had rimlights in addition to all the other givaways. Also the colouring on the top of the long socks and the patterns were mismatching. The sketch lines were clearly visible through the rendering of the first colour image and the bat lighting and theme were REALLY out of place.
