Still denying it, still taking people's money

Uh oh

Further details from mothdusky customer.

Order placed on June 2nd
AI source piece uploaded in March

Mothdusky's customer has been shown the evidence that their piece was traced from AI (a different piece not the space hyena) and has confirmed the commission for that one was after the AI was posted

The ai piece was made using 1 model on the civitai platform. As per screenshot shared by mothdusky herself.

All the metadata is there, it shows the specific model and people have literally reproduced it. Same inputs mean same outputs. It was one single model.

Sketches lacking details that are in the AI and the finished piece.

So timeline does not make sense if the WIP was supposedly used for img2img (but as per the metadata, it was text2img not img2img)

Any comments on the AI image being made using only text2image?

The AI gen metadata shows an image was not used for img2img. It can be reproduced on another machine using same inputs.

So this AI image coincidentally happens to have all the lines and details in the same place?

As a further update, Mothdusky has been found to paint over other people's AI gens and sell those pieces

This commission happened July 2025, but the original AI gen was posted a year ago in September 2024

Can you offer any clarification over the commission(s) traced from AI?

For further context, the commissioned artist traced over someone else's AI gen
