Krita hosts these painting events monthly then gives the award to their best pick.

Here is the link to the winner, by Mythmaker.

Anyway, out of curiosity, I ran it through https://wasitai.com/. This is what it tells me.

We are quite confident that this image, or significant part of it, was created by AI.

    Thank you for being kind.

    I get that from other comments too. If you read carefully, you can see all I said is fact, i.e., what happened. I don’t use the place in OP to express my own opinion because it may form a bias.

    Oh, and any one thinks I am stupid enough to “out” skilled, regular artists on one of the most popular drawing softwares’ forum?

    I donate to Krita regularly by the way. I love Kiki.❤️

    In this case, “fuck AI” fucks the tools, which is AI itself, try to detect and claim real people’s work as AI-generated.

    And fuck this AI art trend as well.

      I think you perhaps assumed that others have the same context as you, in terms of familiarity with the software, the forum/community, and the contests. Given that you knew Mythmaker is an actual artist, a couple of words in the affirmative would have made a big difference to the reading of the post!
