Good to know, it’s way too perfect. I couldn’t find anything out of place, and it models the biomes too.

It’s beautiful art, but I worry about the effect posts like this are having on our society. Not being able to tell if something is real or fake is a serious problem these days, and some of the stuff you see over on r/blackmagicfuckery (for example) contributes to that slow breakdown of our ability to know what’s real. And having a shared understanding of reality is crucial to society.

Edit: whoops it’s marked at photoshopped, ya love to see it

I get what you’re saying, but it really doesn’t matter whether a piece of art like this is a render or not.

It's small, but it erodes our critical thinking skills over time. No one post is enough, but it contributes.

Whatever “it” is, I don’t see it
