Hi everyone and fellow artists! I'm sorry, this post might be a bit long. I'm writing this as a small consumer to seek some professional insight. I recently encountered this issue personally, and it has raised many questions for me regarding global standards in the art community.
I've seen many cases lately where clients discover that their expensive commissions contain raw AI or 3D assets pasted directly onto the canvas. To be clear, I don't believe that using tools or resources is wrong in itself; however, I'm concerned about the lack of effort to blend, paint over, or stylize them to match the work. Most of these artists never disclosed their process, leading clients to believe everything was hand-drawn from scratch. As consumers, we don't have the technical expertise to spot these things during the process. We often only find out after the final work is delivered and posted, when other professional artists kindly point out the inconsistencies for us. By then, the money is spent, and the trust is already broken.
It's heartbreaking to see victims who paid with their hard-earned money being ignored or refused a refund when they found out. We rely so much on the artist's integrity because we can't see where the strokes end and the assets begin.
I would love to hear from the professional community: Does 'using a tool' include the right to hide the process from a paying client? Is it ethical to sell 'unedited assets' under the guise of a traditional commission?
I’m looking for a polite and constructive discussion to help me and other consumers understand the current professional standards better. Your insights would mean a lot to us. Thank you for listening. ;-;
Note: English is not my first language, so I used Gemini to help translate and organize my thoughts to ensure clarity.
