## Summary

This video investigates an artist known as Aya, who was accused of using AI-generated art and voice acting while presenting them as their own. The creator analyzes the evidence, including speed paints, sketches, and rebuttals, to assess the validity of the accusations and the artist's responses.

### Key Points

- **Accusation and Initial Red Flags** [00:02] — An account called 'bookish scammer referral' posts about artist Aya, citing red flags: very young account, incoherent skills, visible tracing in speed paints, and allegedly AI voice acting.
- **Artwork Analysis: AI Indicators** [00:41] — The creator examines Aya's artwork, noting it looks AI-generated, but adds a disclaimer that AI is trained on real artists, so style alone isn't conclusive. Suspicion increases when the artist has no history of drawing in that style before generative AI.
- **Voice Acting Accusations** [01:36] — Aya offers AI voice acting services)Skip, but the male voice actor (Goldie) is confirmed to be a real person. The creator notes that lack of citation doesn't mean non-existence.
- **Detailed Artwork Scrutiny** [03:03] — The creator points out inconsistencies: high rendering in some areas (leather, hair) but shaky line work in others (zippers, hands), suggesting painting over AI. They also note a skill discrepancy between sketches and finished pieces.
- **Community Evidence and Skill Discrepancy** [08:20] — Another user posts a side-by-side comparison of Aya's giveaway prizes: one looks AI-generated, the other shows intermediate skill. The sketch anatomy is off, contradicting the professional-level final products.
- **Writing and Book Series Suspicion** [10:20] — Aya has a book series with 12 books and 10 different reading orders, which the creator finds odd and potentially AI-generated, though they acknowledge some authors plan extensively.
- **Tracing Indicators in Speed Paints** [12:00] — The creator highlights that Aya's line art doesn't align with her sketches, and her sketches are anatomically incorrect, suggesting she might be tracing a hidden image. They note the lack of art progression and the sudden jump in skill.
- **Aya's Rebuttal and OP's Counter** [15:26] — Aya responds on Threads, explaining the raffle pieces were not equal prizes)Skip, and that her first sketches are for composition only. OP counters that even quick sketches should reflect anatomical knowledge, citing professional artists like Zeronis.
- **Aya's Proof Videos and Excuses** [21:26] — Aya uploads speed paints and hand POVs, but the creator notes her process changes (e.g., no body blocking, feathery strokes) and that she provides many excuses (neighbors, health, tablet issues) instead of clear proof.
- **Emotional Manipulation and Victim Card** [34:05] — Aya goes on a rant about her personal struggles (neighbors, health, sleep),Skip, which the creator interprets as emotional manipulation to avoid addressing the core accusations. They note this is a common tactic among scammers.
- **Apology and Continued Excuses** [39:14] — Aya apologizes for her outburst,Skip, but continues to provide excuses and promises more proof. The creator remains skeptical,Skip, noting the pattern of excuses and lack of substantive evidence.
- **Final Assessment** [46:39] — The creator concludes that while Aya can draw,Skip, the evidence suggests she uses AI assistance (painting over or tracing) to produce her final works. They note the skill discrepancy between sketches and finished pieces is a key indicator.

### Conclusion

The video concludes that Aya likely uses AI assistance in her art,Skip, as evidenced by the skill discrepancy between her sketches and final pieces,Skip, and her reliance on emotional manipulation rather than substantive proof. The creator urges viewers to avoid sending hate,Skip, but to remain critical of such claims.

## Transcript

That they are an artist, an author, and a voice actor, but a lot of other people feel like something fishy is up. So, let's delve into the situation of this artist a do. Lia, and again, don't send hate to any parties involved. So, on
July 2nd, an account called bookish scammer referral makes a post about this artist a liar saying, "Offence AI tracing. The red flags include a very young account, incoherent in skills, visible tracing in speed paints, and
visible tracing in speed paints, and also offers allegedly AI voice acting. So, this is their page where you can see some of their artwork. Their bio notably says no AI. This is their Instagram where they have a lot of their artwork.
And as we can see here, this is one example of their work. And now, out the gate, this already looks very AI generated. And I want to add a giant disclaimer, right? Because AI is trained off of actual real human artists.
whose art quote unquote looks AI and that's because AI was trained off of which one came first? The real artist did come first. So, that on its own, it the best indicator that something suspicious is going on. But one thing
that does make it more suspicious is the artwork looking AI and the artist not having a history of drawing like this prior to generative AI becoming a thing. Because artists whose work looks very in the style of AI, well, because they've
they have examples of them working in this style way before stable diffusion doesn't. Here's another example of their art piece, which once again is giving the very like generative AI style. Another user's comments, they also use
AI voice acting and offer to read your books out loud, but it's just an AI oh, I've been following them for a while, but I'm not sure. I know she hired a guy to do some work for the male voices in her work and has been trying
herself, but I don't remember seeing anything about her offering services. and Goldie where Aia or I'm going to end up calling them Aya cuz that's how my her name is A. Lia, but anyways, where Aya and this other male voice actor aka
Goldie does voice acting together. People after listening to that, some people felt like the voice actor was AI generated. Maybe they're generating a any credits for the voice actor anywhere. And yes, this person, this Aya
and Goldie duo, they do charge for their voice acting. You know, here are pricing for their voice acting services, more pricing, etc. So, a lot of people also felt like the voice actor, the male one, was AI generated. So, I talked to the
have a channel where they also cover art scams. I'll have them linked down below the story. I recommend you go and check them out because they're very cool. And actor. They confirmed that he's a real person. And whether he's cited or not,
that probably is for personal choices, but just because they weren't cited as a channel doesn't mean they don't exist. They do exist actually and they are people talking about Ayah's work, let's do a little perusal ourselves because
there are a lot of things I'm seeing that look a bit suspicious. I want to to believe they did the work legitimately, but going across their page, there already is a fair amount of red flags to me. So, this is the art
piece that's used in the profile photo for the Mousian Goldie page. And as you can see, it's exhibiting this again very standard semi-realism art style that you see a lot with the generative AI works, but also you see this with, you know,
other people legitimately have this as their art style. There are things that I And again, I just want to add when it comes to AI, we got to look at all pieces, right? Or multiple art pieces. It's really hard to determine just off
of one. One thing that I already find a bit interesting when it comes to looking at this piece, is that like there's a really high level of rendering, but also somehow a really shaky level in terms of cutting out shapes for parts of the
body, like the zipper here for instance, or here on the arm or here for the hands, as if they're using a really hard eraser brush to kind of carve it out. It when you look at the rest of the piece as a whole, everything blends in very
smoothly, including elements of the hair, the way the hair falls, they do leather really well. This again is something that is a trait of people who paint over generative AI is that they're really good at drawing leather and
clothing, but they will have other elements that are not up to par with their leather and other shiny clothing rendering. And leather and latex is pretty hard to draw. So that together is a bit interesting, but look at the level
of rendering they have for the hair, the leather, etc. Okay, just take a note of It's a female character with blonde hair and a very long braid kind of swinging style. And then we have this piece, right, which is a male character kind of
tied around the back. He's giving a smirk. Again, look at the rendering the other styles this artist works in. And then we have like a piece like this. And the face is similar in terms of the style. The rest of the body is not. And
okay, maybe it's like a halffinish piece, etc. The blending for the face and the hair and stuff looks really odd as in the face is fully finished, highly rendered and very smooth. And the hair looks kind of like very choppily drawn
on on top of the face. Same with the dragon in the back. And then the like shadows down the arm, the swirls. The rendering quality and style don't match the previous pieces that I've showed you. The style looks close, but the
rendering is not quite there. Those two pieces were posted as completed pieces. work in progress. You know, this one again, the lines don't match at all the level of construction and rendering that
everything else exhibits. Like the arm isn't blended in over the couch. This is completed piece. And then again, we have very thin line art and it's things are
have to be. There is an art style and coloring outside of line work, but it's simply just not completed yet by any means. And here we have the final one. And this one was the one that made me feel like this feels a little odd
because and I'm trying to put it into words that kind of make sense to explain my artist intuition, right? We once again have the composition of the piece It's a complex piece. You're looking at
and his head is turned over the shoulder. It's a more dynamic pose to bit lower. The color choice is completely spot-on with the face color, underpainting. So, there's like a glow on the underside of the hair. So, the
color choice is very advanced. The color theory is very advanced. The characters blended in very well with the background. But the actual rendering is background. But the actual rendering is very choppy. And by choppy, I mean that
it really feels like this person doesn't know what they're doing. Because when they're just kind of applying random brush strokes everywhere. Whereas again, this is the level of hair rendering that they're capable of doing according to
what they advertised. Or, you know, we have another blonde character hair like this. hair like this in the start, like the sketching phase, the flat color plus basic shading phase doesn't look like this. The hair is not following any
shape at all. There is no direction to it. It's literally like they're applying lines. And if you are drawing really 3D looking hair like this, you would apply the shadows in very like sharp and dynamic shapes to build up the shape of
highlights, whatever. But they're not even applying the shadows in the correct spots. Here we have a big swoop of the bang over the eye and then the shadow bangs properly. Same thing for here. There's no shapes constructed within the
that out is because there's a lot of shapes in this type of hair. There is a in like the very line type way, which is totally fine, but that's not what this shading and the highlights for the body and we see kind of the same thing where
it looks like brush strokes and stuff are again applied without knowing why like scribbled on. So I just find it hard to believe that this type of rendering can somehow render out to look like this without some sort of AI
people on the internet also felt suspicious. Another user makes a post saying, "I've been looking into her for a bit now and I wanted to gather things. 100% AI generating and tracing her works. This is her giveaway post from
2025 where these two images were offered as equal prizes. Obviously, for those AI, whereas the second is her real skill. Here we see the side by side. And this is what I was pointing out. on the right hand side we see you know a drawn
piece that is more intermediate whereas this on the left which looks very this on the left which looks very obviously AI generated looks much more not saying this and saying like AI is better whatever but we can clearly see
there is a skill discrepancy between these two pieces they add these are her sketches in the time-lapse she's posted for people who can't tell there's zero in the finished work would draw a sketch like this there is no anatomical
knowledge and there is Nothing right in the sketch. These are the sketches of a proportions are. So, this is the final product. The sketch. If you're going to at least try it try a little harder. The anatomy is completely off. And again,
anatomy. If you're a beginner, you're trying to learn. I love beginner support beginner artists. We just don't support scammers. And this person is just straight up laring because what do you mean that sketch doesn't produce
properly. The shoulder joint is dislocated. Also, the body is not body is kind of like this, you know? I can't even replicate it. Like the the they're doing this type of pose. And also, they've drawn so many characters
in this like kind of [ __ ] masculine pose like this. So, if you've drawn so easier for you, right? If you're familiar with it, we can give grace to a pose that's much more complex that nobody really draws, like that Frein
head drawing. But this mm- mind you, here's another sketch she's posted to to this? I know it's obviously not the right? This sketch is anatomically correct. So, how come this one is so far
off? Here we have another one which is closer, but her arms, where's her but we already covered that one. They also add that's not all. She's a writer. check whether her writing is AI, but it's highly likely it is. So, okay, this
has like a book series, and there are reading order based on whatever you want, right? It's totally a vibe, but she's got like a bajillion books planned out, like 12 book order pacing
variations. Now, again, some artists are absolute mega minds, so they can literally like plan out a book 10 books ahead. Some just wing it and go with the flow. Maybe they used AI, maybe they didn't use AI. I just find it odd that
way you could read their book, basically. Okay, wait. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8. can read the book. Like 10 different orders where you could read like book book four, then I'm sorry. How can your book plot-wise make sense if there's
that many options? I'm a reader. I read a lot of books. And there's some books book before this." Like thrown of glass, right? Some people say, "Oh, okay." Like pure order where you read book zero first and you go or you read books 1 2 3
0 four like that and that it might make more sense. that is possible, right? Cuz gives all of her backstory, but it doesn't affect the rest of the plot for context. It's a little bit slower to get into though. So, some people suggest
faster. There's other books where you'll be like, "Oh, you read these two books like, you know, three and four in tandem, aka simultaneously, and then the rest of it." You don't see book series with such massive variety in like the
will the plot make sense? But OP continues, "Her perfect liner appears opacity when lining, which is another tracing tell. The sketch is so bright really indicates she doesn't even look at the sketch, but traces a hidden image
beneath. Everybody's different, but I would find it impossible to do line art over a sketch this vibrantly purple." And again, they're not following the videos, and people have harped on me for it, and I think it's fair, right? I
didn't word it correctly. You're allowed to not follow a sketch. If you want to fine. Some artists when it comes to the line art on a whim, they're like, I want to do this. Feel free to do that. It gets suspicious when you as an artist
have zero past history of doing work in this style essentially, right? They have no art progression. So, all their art starts out amazing out the gates. And then two, the art rendering doesn't match up to the anatomy that they're
advertising, right? their art rendering anatomy and composition look really high, but their sketching looks mad mad mad chopped in terms of the anatomy. artwork, the rendering skill doesn't
of other art pieces they've shown. So then on top of that, when you have a chopped sketch where the anatomy is totally off and then the moment they do perfectly, but it also doesn't line up with the sketch. Right now, in the line
eyebrows are lower, the nose is lower, completely different shape, almost as if they're tracing something that we can't see. H, that likely means they're probably tracing something we can't see.
paints that are especially egregious to me. It's crazy how she goes from drawing before to a season pro that can freehand perfect liner on top of [ __ ] So, about here where it's the same freaking thing. Like, she does the most boxiest
sketch ever. And then look at how she draws in the back muscles. What is that? like. It's because she's blocking out where the shadows go already because she knows where the shadows belong. The anatomy is completely off as well.
knowing where everything belongs. Now it little off though here. Also, what in the back muscles is going on here? Now the line art is perfect. But on top of that, it matches nothing with the
different spots again. The nose is all in a different spots, almost as if she's allowed to draw differently than what your sketch layer showed. And just you should start pointing fingers accusing them of using AI. That coupled
previously mentioned is why this artist looks so suspicious. And this is why it's odd. It's because when you look at the artist and the way they're drawing, they're displaying. Their sketching skill is beginner, right? Beginner to
intermediate. Their color theory skill is pro, but then their rendering is not quite there. Here we have another speed paint. This is the egregious one. Oh my god, look at that. We have this. And then look at the way she does the line
nothing lines up. All of a sudden, the body somehow shifts over, but the head stays in the same place. Like she's drawing a more refined sketch over sketch doesn't mean anything cuz she's not referring to the first sketch at
the line art is also referencing something else because look, the hands trying to make is there's there's like no point doing a sketch if you're what I mean? And then now all of a sudden the composition is perfect. You
truly want me to believe you went from this to this? And yeah, here OP points looks so off. So Aya then went on threads and made their rebuttal, basically breaking down OP's point by point. First up about the raffle, right?
They say that those two pieces were not equal prizing. The first one was body. The second was supposed to be a sketch. About why the sketches look curious about this answer. Right. She says, "This is the funniest part because
I always say my first sketches need to be exercised. The first sketch usually there for composition only, not for anatomy. After this sketch, I start That's why I ignore it most of the time and only use it as a guideline. Even if
you do like a one minute sketch, you're going to exhibit the anatomical knowledge that you have. So if your knowledge of anatomy is extremely high to what you are advertising in your works, like this level of anatomy, if
you're doing a blocking for a composition for even for one minute, it would still look anatomically correct because that is the level of anatomy you have. I don't think it's possible for you to do a basic blocking sketch, have
the anatomy look like that of somebody with scoliosis. Totally chill if you around and do a refined sketch where the anatomy is absolutely perfect. I just pull up a sketch from an artist I really like as an example. This artist is
called Zeronis. They did a lot of art and star guardian stuff for League of they have on their page. This was from 2024. And they're just like raw dogging out the gate. like no basic blocking, whatever, cuz they've probably done so
that anymore. Take a look at this. At this point in the sketch, they've minutes. The anatomy is all right. The anatomy is all correct. Of course, know, there's things they're they're going to change later, but it is almost
perfectly correct because their art anatomy level is up here because they've professional. It makes sense. Just another one of their pieces off their here. They're doing a couple of sketches for some different poses. Again, are
these sketches? Yeah. Is the anatomy correct in these? Yeah. Because this of experience doing it. I'm showing their artwork just as an example because believe that you do a one minute sketch and have the anatomy of a beginner
sketch and all of a sudden you have the anatomy of a god. But they continue highlighting the male voice actor asked to be anonymous, but again, we've already like debunked that one. About writing, they again highlight they have
released. You know, the story isn't planned for 12 books. They already wrote And they highlight that their books are already on Kindle Unlimited. So maybe Right? So about the speed paints, they highlight the first speed paint is the
challenge to draw the best painting they can in 1 hour. Recreating another painting they made previously. 80% of the time was used to polish the sketch composition laid out in a previous drawing and that they have ADHD. Same.
colored sketch within an hour. Other times it takes them 3 hours to draw a ADHD, sometimes, you know, if you're not motivated to do something, somebody won't do it. They add, I keep redrawing until it feels right. Sometimes it feels
times I have to redraw until my eyes bleed. There are still things to me that aren't fully explained away here. But let's continue. Because the original OP made a rebuttal, adding, "For people who aren't artists, she's betting on you not
being educated about how art works. She manipulates was written by me, and her claims. She's using your lack of money in a field as a money source." Talking about, you know, oh, you cropped off the fact that the second image was the
sketch you're supposed to win from the raffle. OP says that wasn't actually the point. The claim is that one piece has a perfect head and the other one has a mangled head. And they say the person who drew the image on the left won't
thing that I'm trying to say again, right? Which I agree with OP. Aya is trying to claim, oh well, one is just a more refined version and I spent 100 hours on this one, which is why it looks so good. Even if you had a drawing that
you only spent one hour on, you would still exhibit the skill level that you're supposed to have. So, if you are a professional, like I just showed you worked for Riot Games, did a lot of League art, you're gonna have the
professional anatomy level. You're going to have the professional color theory level. Even if you only drew for like 30 seconds and did a quick sketch, it wouldn't look like somebody else drew it. And OP says, "Yes, right. It isn't
It's that they lack any kind of understanding of anatomy. Her guidelines are of a beginner that has never drawn a body by themselves." OP adds a couple of examples from a artist on YouTube who does quick studies of poses versus their
art. And about the voice actor, OP says, "My theory has always been that it's an AI filter on her own recording." And about the books being on Kindle you Kindle Unlimited page reads, and I don't have writing experience, but um
sure, on two out of the three using AI, so I'll be careful about the third. The two being the art and the voice acting." Again, we know the male voice actor is a real person. Whether their voice acting was run through AI for some sort of
modification that Aya then posted, we don't know. I do agree on the suspicion believe that it's possible to have a 12 book series where you could make 10 different variations of stories. Nightlight Shifter, Daylight Fay,
Werewolf by changing the order 10 different times without completely time, and the redraws are all video is the same thing. mangled anatomically beginner sketches with
appearing on top. And they highlight more importantly, she hasn't provided a single defense in her art or the voice acting case because she's not looking to looking to manipulate authors that don't know what art processes look like. Now,
after this, Aya starts dropping some examples of their artwork, some actual full speed paints. Before we get in, I just want to add we're going to hear a lot of excuses. So Aya says, "Finally, I've been trying to set everything up to
record today, but technology hates me. Here's the OBS display recordings of my processes. Sketches three and four will probably interest people the most. So drawing to, oh, it looks like something. I'll upload hand POVs tomorrow because I
blah blah." Now, let's look at the excuses. It's 1:00 a.m. here. The first of hours ago. There's things happening in my life that I can't really share. place to stay, my neighbors are extremely shady people. I've been trying
my best to compile proof to clear my name. Why? Because my stories, my art, the issue that people who commission me might be affected, which I'm infinitely past midnight, I'll try to set up a quick live writing session with a few of
in the same folder, be it today or tomorrow. I'll also upload the voice acting stuff, etc. P.S. My drawing process was significantly slowed down by positioning, I couldn't set my feet on the table. Drawing tablet on my lap. It
chair with no back support. Got some excuses. So, we see the first two sketches and they draw in Clip Studio Paint. They have a reference image open on the side. What one thing I kind of noticed with the sketching is that they
if this is the way you like to draw. This is also something that you will kind of see with more intermediate beginner artists. more like feathery strokes almost as if they're not confident in placing down lines. There
that like drawing this way. Yo, everybody's got their own drawing pointing it out. It is something you tend to see more commonly with people who are newer to art. What I also find interesting here is they don't do any
sort of body blocking. Essentially, they kind of go straight into the rough sketch. And again, there's people who draw without artist who is completely legitimate who does draw like that. One thing that I
find odd is when people have AI accusations and suddenly they whip up more proof or speed paint proof or whatever and now their drawing process changes. You know, another example of artists that I've covered who would jump
from like doing basic sketching to suddenly doing grayscale blocking and blocking anymore. You're allowed to change the way you want to draw. Maybe it's not for you, you change it up. Conveniently, these people with AI
accusations also tend to suddenly swap art styles [laughter] and art processes. So now this is what people started pointing out. She gets into like drawing the hand holding a knife and the hand is completely chopped. Anatomy all off. And
again, that's totally fine, man. Hand anatomy is really hard, especially when You know, you got to get some reference pictures, stuff like that. The thing I'm harping on the skill level, it's totally fine to be a beginner artist. That is
beginner artists. We need newer artists, you know, learning to do art. Art is a making fun of you for your skill level. The reason I'm talking about it here is themselves to be an art professional and taking commissions. So that's why we now
need to scrutinize the artwork because the level that we're seeing in the final seeing here in the sketching process. So here again, they're doing like a cleaner sketch that's featuring more of the same like shaky small feathery brush strokes.
So then we get here where they whip up a reference photo of them or somebody, maybe it's not them, right? Holding an like a switchblade and they're sketching that in where once again the anatomy level and the art skill level just to me
doesn't match what their final product of other pieces they've shown is. Again, let me remind you this is what they're advertising. This is another art piece that they're advertising that they drew themselves. The knife anatomy is also
wrong because the way they're holding the switchblade, which like unfortunate, kind of in towards their chest like this, but the way they drew the knife, they're drawing it as if the knife is like parallel to their body, but from
awkward to hold that. It would be more so pointing inwards like this. Then the continue the sketching process, and this is essentially what they leave it as off. this middle finger. It's like much thicker than the rest of the fingers.
So, here we have another piece where they grabbed like a pre-drawn palette. They used some cloud brushes and paint a background and that's kind of it. So, tree brush and stamped in trees. So, let's take a look at sketch three. This
a look at sketch three and four. You'll notice like I start figuring things out here. So, okay. I don't know why they do this, but they take the sketch and then they just start drawing line art like or a more clean version of the sketch.
don't know why they do this. My theory is because the original person that but the other person because they were like, "Yo, the line art is not lining up different spot. It looks like they're drawing as if they know where things
belong. Maybe this is why they're faking it like this." Where suddenly they're doing the line art now in a different spot than the sketch to prove this is through some reference photos and again we have the sketch where the anatomy is
too tired of me saying that. Okay, again, if you have wonky anatomy, that's totally fair and that's totally valid. We love wonky anatomy. It's funny. I've anatomy. Okay, that's all chill. It's just this is not what this person is
advertising. And this speed paint sketch thing is further proving the fact that it's not their skill level, or more so, this is their skill level, which is completely fine and valid, not this. So, they whip up the reference photo for the
they whip up the reference photo for the hand again. And uh we got a real wonky fine. Hands are really hard to draw. quadrupling down on proving their drawing process by being like, "Oh,
above my sketch because like that's what they got mad at me for. So, I'm going to Sorry, I just find this really laughable. They're trying so hard to prove that they draw like this. And this is the comical part to me because if you
spent all this [ __ ] effort making this fake speed paint, well legit speed mean? You could have just learned how to draw. You could have just whipped up a YouTube tutorial from some YouTube art goat and then done sat down and did a
you a lot, you know? So, here we have sketch four where they then turn that cleaned up sketch into their new sketch and now they line over that. And again,
figured things out. This again to me is fake because it's not their actual drawing process. We saw their other speed paints. They do a shape body blocking and then they go into a rough sketch suddenly drawing things in a very
line art and the line art is perfect. They do like three steps like that. This is now our what third fourth sketch that we're seeing. Once again drawing the eyes in a completely different spot. Also, there's a whole other thing that's
already been proven like AR tracing where you can even if you are recording, you know, use AR tracing to go and trace something that we can't visibly see. But now they start drawing. But now, how did your anatomy get so much better? Look at
the face. Look at the hands. Look at the knife. Now, how did your anatomy get so much better between sketches three and four? Again, you will sketch at your level. So, if your anatomy level is that of a beginner, your sketch will look
is that of an intermediate, it will look like intermediate. And it's completely fine no matter what points in the stages of the art process you're at. But you You don't jump from sketch three looking like a beginner to sketch four and
artist. That just isn't possible unless you're scamming in some way, shape, or form. They also offer, again, this is the hand cam for sketch 4 to I guess don't see their hand though, but it shows the screen, although the time in
other people also didn't believe all the user writes, "The jump between what am I drawing to? It looks like something isn't having a line art. A very unsure one, especially for a person with shown
a random place on top of a completely non-existent anatomy and structure. To hope whomever needs to hear actual artists will hear them out on these questions because this whole thing is so weird and manipulative. As soon as you
made, the level of understanding here does not equal the level of how things turn out at the end. The reference is right here. What are we even doing? And they add like it's totally how you shoot a bow. And there's somebody shooting a
Look, when I shot archery, okay, I competed for seven years. You don't this way. Shoot a bow this way. People muck up bows all the time, and it's totally fine if you never shot a bow. You're not going to know how it works.
And a commenter says, "The fact that she not only had five sketches, which were previous one, the fact they always floated a good inch above and the structure, while not even using all the different folders on top of all of that.
screen almost never had anything to do with what they're drawing except for the hands, maybe just makes it so obvious." And the original Opie says this. She has the hand reference open and does like five sketches as she looks like the
reference, but the hand is still completely broken until it magically improves at the end. Her process is just unrealistic and the voice acting clip through an AI change filter. And OBS lets you put an invisible overlay, which
was done by another AI tracer before. I find it really funny when people like link YouTube videos and I'm like, "Oo, let me click it. It's just me. I get also want to add again in this video we I was also talking about the sketch
where they're like moving everything over marginally. Again, as an artist, you can draw whatever way you want, okay? You're valid in your methods. As to explain it to other people. This is a situation again where we have somebody
with a lot of massive red flags already where they're exhibiting a sketching level that doesn't match the skill level they're advertising in their final product. So, it gets even more suspicious in this specific context when
look very basic and amateur-ish, which is fine. And then suddenly they do very precise, very specific sketching where everything is shifted up like half an inch. Because why? It's going to make it look like you're tracing something we
little bit higher than your sketch layer. Because again, there can be legitimate artists that draw like this sometimes. Again, it completely fair. It and you're like, "Oop, that one eyeball is a little low." going just draw it a
That happens. And then alongside every single other red flag we've already talked about, it makes this person's art process look like a massive glaring lighthouse beacon being like we we we something's wrong here. And OP
time to do this as she sounds like a sweet person in her recording, which I'm sketching skill in the screen recording both anatomy and line confidence-wise reference points I had made in that video about helicopter food echoing
because it's blatant to any artist and I've tried explaining as many times as I to people's brains. I feel the same way when I was talking about the sketches being moved. I know it's on me. I didn't word it well. I hope you got my point
because like it's fine if you like you sketch an eyeball and you doing the line a little bit. That's chill." It's that in context with everything else. If you they're tracing something. If somebody has a speed paint and they're not
obviously point fingers and start slinging accusations. That's not cool because people, you know, change it all the time. This is in context to every person already has. But OP says, "I'm not convinced and I'll see if any
artists were like, "Yo, I feel that somebody who makes such complex compositions would have more confidence in their line work." And one thing I ready, which I agree because there's like a bajillion folders in Clip Studio
the sketch, the sketch was made in a folder called Sketch as an object layer on top of an already completed art piece. So, um, why aren't we working in like a brand new canvas? Maybe there's a reason
why we're working on an already completed art canvas, but that's odd. it's due to the fact that they had this other window open. I use Clip Studio I almost never use it. You can open like full-on working Clips Studio Paint files
card that I made for my boyfriend that I need to print of our cats, but it window. It just, you know, you can zoom in and out or whatever on it. But you you know. I don't know how they got to to those layers there. M. Another person
tell her shaky scratches are neither anatomically correct or at the level of Basically, everything we've already pointed out. So then Aya goes on a big old rant, a huge rant actually, and she got ratioed really badly here where she
f it. I'm sorry my strokes aren't confident enough. Maybe it's the fact searching for a new place to move because my neighbors are allegedly substance and activity traffickers. And they mentioned, "I have video proof, but
because I'm an immigrant in a corrupt country." They were shouting this stuff everything. Maybe it's because the neighbors party and shout through the night and I have to choose between being able to breathe in a heatwave or cooking
myself alive in my apartment that doesn't have AC. I still hear them. Yes, what they do. Perhaps it's because I couldn't sleep. the past few weeks more because this was my last day my landlady allowed me to find another place to rent
or I need to sign a contract for a year? Perhaps because I had to sit stiff on my because I couldn't sit in my normal position leaning back feet on desk or Perhaps it's because my tablet is so scratched that it feels like I'm
dragging my nails across a blackboard with each stroke and rogue pieces of it small strokes. Maybe it's because I'm permanently on the verge of a panic attack from all this accumulated stress. Did I mention I could barely keep down
past 5 a.m. and I'm too scared to fall asleep because I know I'll have sleep paralysis again? I could go on. This isn't even half of it. But then again, who cares if that is true? I am sorry. That sucks. All of this is an awful
always think it's very interesting and maybe I sound kind of cold saying this, but a lot of times, most times when people who do AI scamming get cornered into providing proof or evidence of the fact that they are not a scammer,
instead of resorting to providing proof that they're not a scammer, this person substantial proof, right? They play the emotional card like, "I am going through so much trouble, so therefore you should feel bad for me and stop questioning my
can be going through a shitty situation and it sucks. But the other thing can be true, which is your proof didn't actually prove anything. It didn't clear the accusation about this being artwork that you claim you can draw and this
being your sketching process, which is not matching anything that you're advertising. They also attach a photo of their drawing tablet. And a lot of shocked at what this person was saying essentially because they were saying,
"Yo, it's too much work for you to report the, you know, CSA that's happening with your neighbors, but you can go make a whole bunch of time-lapse videos to prove that you're not tracing AI." And other people were like, "Wait,
so bad things are happening to kids in your neighborhood, but you're using it as a defense for why your art speed paints are lackluster." And another user working. You're tricking a bunch of empathetic and warm-hearted people to
pity you because of your AI use. Shame on all of you who are comfortable responsibility of helping kids out of fear, and would rather hop online to their dishonesty." At one point, do any of you say enough is enough. The wolf is
and you're dancing around it like it won't kill you. And this is the thing, emotions and they're spinning this massive soba story, they create a safety blanket around them. So now if you try to go and call out their bad behavior
because they're providing unsubstantiated proof, right? From what I have seen so far, I believe that they're scamming and that they are passing it off as theirs for commissions
enough proof to this point to prove otherwise. But because they have played such a big emotional card, you can't call them out. Otherwise, they're going meanie. They're going to call you an [ __ ] and a bully for kicking them
manipulators get away with doing these things. Because if they can't win the argument by truth, they will win the argument by playing the victim card. And in situations like this, you can't win. Because if you try to provide proof,
other option is you fall for their manipulation and you feel bad for them, they can get away with their behavior. This is always just something to keep in mind because you might have people in your life that do this, right? Where
every time they're called out for something bad, they never actually explain the behavior or apologize or provide any sort of substantial truth to what is going on, but instead they always pull the wo is me card. And
like, "What the hell?" After people were like, "Dude, how dare you go on the actually help the kids." They had made a pin post being like, "Oh, I contacted And another user responds, "I've been watching the situation unfold, and this
manipulative people I met. It reminds me of them. Every reason she listed feels instead of addressing the feedback properly. The tone feels quite the doubt as I don't know how I would handle that type of stress. And I feel
nothing being addressed reminds me of cheaters being caught. And honestly, I behavior reactions from text like that, but it really gives manipulative vibes. And I agree. And also, maybe I'm too cold-hearted, but I don't believe that
because it's reading a little too convenient timing suspicious to me with with the kids. So, after that, because she was getting a lot of flack for what she said, Aya comes out with this. I uploaded a few more files to the proof
apologize for my outburst from yesterday. Although it's no excuse, I felt backed into a corner where my life was and still is falling apart and my lack of sleep and rest. The good news is that an investigation has been launched
and I can provide proof except it would dox my location. I've called police and to whether I should dox my location or not. Now for proof, I will compile more proof on a clearer mind, but today I redrew the sketch, the file with sketch
and the previous ones, I was able to sleep for a few hours, although it was far too little and too shallow. I'm sitting in a position I draw 99% of the support. Feet on desk, tablet on lap. Note that I was still unable to eat and
if my situation doesn't improve soon. Usually, I work faster and don't need sick sketches to reach a decent result. Also, yes, those are sketches, not line offer as an option for my commissions. I'll talk more about my commissions
also uploaded, you know, stuff about the voice recording, blah blah blah blah few days to hopefully recover, then record more proof. I'll probably use compress, then re-upload some videos I already uploaded. Just know that I'm
at the moment I was going delirious. I should have put my phone aside for a few scared that my silence would be perceived as an admission of guilt. I I refunded all my clients. I don't expect to receive any payment after I
clear my name, and that's up to clients. I am incredibly sorry that so many of the main reasons I rushed to provide proof. At the time, it's like a damned options were stay silent and allow it to snowball. Two, ask for a period to
settle my IRL issues and then provide proof. But I'm sure everyone would say I'm stalling. Or three, rush to provide a semblance of truth. And as you can disaster. I can empathize with the fact that it can feel frustrating if
a situation where your eyeball life is crumbling and then also all this accusation is being slung at you whether need to clear your name. It feels like there's too much on your plate that you
know if it is all true we can agree with but the way that I read this is again a because of the people that I've dealt with in my life when I hear this I'm of excuses right they're talking about how their life is falling apart how
they're they getting no sleep. How they can't even eat. how they have to go to cops, like it's a lot of unnecessary info in my personal opinion. And sure, your IRL situation stuff can add context to situations. You already explained
is falling apart. So now, wouldn't the next step be let's take a little bit of a break and then upload what according to you is a good speed paint when you're of sound mind in a safe location and fed and have slept. I don't know. Everyone
me, this still reads manipulative. So then they upload a sixth sketch where what I find interesting for this sketch is the fact that they still have, you layers. They're working in a new folder now. All these other layers are now
toggled off. They were toggled on in the other sketches that we saw. But one like what they had said earlier in their post, I load line art. Like it's kind of smelling the things that people are going to say. So then they're creating
an alibi for themselves, pre-existing one. So if people come out and say, "Oh, choppy." Well, they're just going to pull up the, you know, but I told you just a bit interesting to me. So, this
again, one thing I want you to note is just the anatomy level of the line art that we see here versus the first sketch that we saw. Vastly different. It really And in the comments of their post, people are like, "Girl, stay safe. Don't
you're reading." Blah blah blah blah blah. I fear it's just people falling for this person's manipulation. And again, maybe I sound really cold-hearted my life and I'm just smelling it from a
again. The trauma's coming back, you know?" And they respond. Honestly, my it's giving the vibes. Do like I feel like everyone in high school knew this there are people who, again, I'm not trying to discredit people who need
help. If you need help, please reach out to a friend, whatever. But there'll be anyways. Nobody cares. Nobody. But there's people who like legitimately mean it. And there's people who do it for attention. And then, you know, they
about you. We love you." D. It's kind of given that. Somebody in the comments also offered to connect with them to do a live draw. They agreed to DM them, but whether it happened or not, who knows? So then they add another thing into
their folder, a traditional painting of a person they drew in 2019. They again have a lot of excuses. I didn't want to post it because it was supposed to be a since 2019. Since then, I only painted a few landscape and stuff in traditional
shaded yet. I was hoping to color it with pencils. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Then they add the photo. Once again, it was supposed to be a test. I within an hour. The lighting in the room is horrendous. The camera fell because I
don't own a tripod. My health has taken a nose dive. My body is shutting down record another process. And for people asking why there's pauses, because I had leave in the bits of me puking the little water I can barely force myself
sixth sketch was done after a tiny bit of rest the next day, and I was in my usual more comfortable position. Tomorrow, since it's 5:00 a.m. already, I'll tidy up the previous folder so I can find the other hand POVs. Also, I'm
some point, I'm not even putting any pressure on the tip, just holding it by the surface so you can hear how it scratches and deviates the pen. I'm for my videos. I truly try to keep it like, you know, put together, deliver
you the information. I can see how this person is a writer because they are person is a writer because they are crafting the most outlandish stories of excuses over and over and over and over again. They're faring more sympathy from
empathetic people. Posting a screenshot again with a ton of excuses as to why it expectations, why it might be a little bit lackluster, how they're suffering, sleep, how they can't keep water down. If it is true that you're truly
suffering this much, I again I'm sorry for you, but truly please get off the something, man. Because if your health is truly this big of a concern, you're talking about it on the internet rather than actually seeking help. And again,
not trying to discredit disabled artists, chronically ill artists, not like this. I just think this person is manipulating people. And again, this is what happens with manipulators. They hide behind a massive, massive, massive
cloak of feel bad for me. So, you feel you look like a dick. Because now it's going to look like I'm bullying somebody that's ill, right? But I'm going to be honest. The whole point about people who
use this type of manipulative language is that they use it to distract you from the true point at hand. And the true point at hand is that you're [ __ ] you drew stuff like this, blaming you drew this, blaming you drew this when
you draw like this. And this looks cute and this is perfectly fine. It's not this though. And that's how they get you. So we have one POV of the traditional sketch from the side. So we have them drawing the sketch from the
don't have anything to like a tripod or something. So yeah, we do get the side Cuz truly if you've never recorded a speed paint before, it might not occur their hand blocks because it's on the side of their dominant hand. But I
legitimately drawn. I'm just pointing out that I think it's funny. And yeah, back it up where they show it to the canvas so you can actually see the day, the debate was not can Ayah draw because the answer is yes, they
did they draw this without AI assistance, as in painting over AI or tracing AI in some way. And I think the answer is still no. And they quote that "Funny how the moment I show some irrefutable proof, even if it's
supposed to be a test video, it suddenly crickets. I'll try to record more today showcase that I can obtain similar results in a traditional medium as I do in mind that I'm rusty. The 1-hour sketch attached was the first person I
drew in a traditional medium since 2019 to 2020. The last time I painted Still, I'll push through my health issues and try my best to showcase my skills. Impossible task. Can you have an explanation of your artwork without any
excuse in it? Impossible task. Just just just wondering. You know, not everyone those people that needs an excuse at every single speed paint you ever post, but uh [laughter] just wondering. And a commenter says, "It's crickets because
nothing, nor did you do anything halfdecent, it's likely crickets because and turns that nobody asked for, people are tired of you and the spectacle this has become." So, at the end of the day, I'm curious about your thoughts, guys.
tossed in my two cents in here. I try to present the information as started losing it after reading like the 10,000th excuse as to why they can't draw slash their neighbors are absolutely violent evil slash they can't
pee real bad in the middle of their art pieces slash why this that and the third and the compression of their stuff. Come on, man. Come on. Please just post proof that you can draw at this level. Full proof. So, we see the sketch with this
level of anatomy. We see the line art with this level of anatomy and then we see the coloring and the rendering process to this level of completion. I just want to see it because we haven't seen it yet. We have seen that this
statement. But did they draw this without any sort of AI assistance? I is no. So with that, I'm curious about your thoughts. And again, don't send bully people. That's not cool. That's not what we're about. So with that, if
like and subscribe. Don't forget to check me out on Etsy. digital art there for streamers and creators. I also have a coffee with free resources like a free Twitch 3 days a week, Mondays and Saturdays at 600 p.m. PST and Thursdays
