I was literally so ticked off about AI "artists" as of late, I decided to try out an art method I attempted years ago and stopped when someone called it lazy.
Now I can take confidence in knowing it's not the laziest "art" form anymore, and he's my first piece in years.

I know, it's furry art(technically) but I don't use DeviantArt anymore, so this is really the only place I can showcase it.
I actually think it came out quite well.
