Here's what it was before. There are Alberto's edits, which are still absolutely amazing and more than good enough compared to what most art gets when it comes to scans & cleaning tbh. They were added to the gallery a while back. And then the new scans I made (& then cleaned) for the image above.

I cleaned up this great fight scene of Link & Ganon's end battle from my 2400dpi scans of the 1986 Bandai boardgame archive.org/details/merc...

I should have the whole set done soon- except the map, which is so much work. I'm going to rely on Alberto's edit that's already in the gallery #zelda

I've seen some reactions from struggling artists along the lines of 'I give up' and I feel your pain—but please do not.

Most people don't want to live in a world where artists are automated away, art production is captured by AI firms. Most people hate this idea.

Organize. Build solidarity. Fight.
Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.

These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

Visual artists, illustrators and graphic designers share their stories about how AI is being used to lower wages, degrade work and even replace it altogether, in this installment of AI Killed My Job.
