AI is getting better at helping Fakers...

I am the 'Rookie' on a small Indie Game Team, - I have less talent than the rest so I am doing the 'all the other' - small jobs. - this includes screening potential talent. ( Eliminate the fakes and time wasters ) - then pass on the rest for team review. Lately I see that 'AI' is getting better at helping the Fakers - supply me with a 'wireframe' of 'their' work. See my other post 'here'

But now I get a message from some guy... shows me his portfolio... 90% is average with a few 'wow' items - I do a google image search and I soon find the 'real' author.

Rather than confront - I simply ask for a 'wireframe' ( of her face only. )

and I get the 'blender wireframe'.

on first impression - it looks rather good - right ? can anyone see a problem ??

My question to you all is - What is a 'reasonable' request - from a potential employer to a freelance artist ? - to confirm they are the real artist - maybe asking for a 360 render ?

Something that is very easy to create - if you really did create the model.
But almost impossible for a fake to 'fake' ??

Thanks in advance to any useful comments.

How do we feel about Fake Profiles ?

How do we feel about Fake Profiles ?

  1. You don't care - it does not affect you...
  2. 1A) Because you are not an artist.
  3. 1B) because you are an artist but still, don't care.
  4. You hate it - and they should not be allowed to host a fake profile.
  5. They should get a warning - posted on their profile.
  6. Something like - " Potential Fake Artist - accused of stealing images from others. "

Please simply comment with a Number - or other reason - and thanks for your time.
( Reddit used to have a 'Quiz' Feature - but I can't seem to find it. )

Why do I care? - I am looking for talent, and so far all I find are 'fake' talent.
To Quantify - I am looking for talent who will work for revenue share - I know, I know.
When I have a budget - I know where to find good talent. - right now, I am hoping to find talent that wants / needs some more exposure.

The 'Attached' image. - ( I asked for a wireframe of the model they claimed they created. )
does this look like a wireframe to you guys ?

Fake or New Feature ?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is this a Photoshop composite or is this a new 'render feature I've never seen before ? Thanks in Advance. ( and no offence intended to the original creator. )

Can't seem to 'Clone Stamp' from one Texture Set to another...

I can't seem to 'Clone Stamp' from one Texture Set to another...
AI says it's possible ( but she has lied to me before. )

and yes I set all layers to 'Pass Through'...

Is the issue with 'UV' alignment ?

for reference AI Said..
" Yes, you can clone stamp from one texture set to another in Substance Painter by using the Clone tool on a fill layer with all channels set to "passthrough" blend mode. "

Now I know that is wrong - " Fill Layers are not 'Paintable' !! "

Here are the two 'Layers' I am trying to clone from one to the other...

if anyone can see my mistake - please help !! ( thanks in Advance )

It it a UV Problem ? Any advice would help.

This is the problem I was fixing - I was able to do it - just with paint - but I would prefer to be able to clone - if possible. Can anyone confirm they are able to 'Clone Stamp between two different texture sets. ( oh - I'm using Sub.Painter 11 )
