Making-of available on Twitter. I will let other's decide whether or not this is enough to get rid of the ai-assisted or ai-generated tags on masoq's other works. I don't know all the AI detecting techniques and haven't kept up with the masoq discourse.

I'm aware that there is no concrete way to say whether he is using AI or not. I wouldn't disagree if people choose to think he isn't, but personally I do, and one making-of isn't enough.

First off, he tries to deflect the accusations by the typical "bro I'm bad at drawing hands" route but
This one has a middle finger just randomly poking out and bent to the side.
I title this one Gojo the Six Fingers. This is from a Patreon pic that he posted. You can find the full piece if you google search for masoq kemono.
And this one has straight up broken arms, a problem that even amateur artists don't make. And I can tell you exactly why it happens after having tried AI myself: AI is especially bad at doing crossed arms without human intervention.

He has also traced one of club3's artwork and there is a history of tracers using AI too.

to add to this, here's me copy-pasting my response about this on the art check thread:
He posted a response to all of this which is pretty damning; claims to just be "bad at hands", but he made a rookie mistake, said that he merged the layers of a photo he sent to a client (which was shown in the thread sparking this) then called it a "WIP" for basically shits and giggles.

Someone also pointed out that he posted two Brazillian Mikus on the same day that still had different coloring, shading, and hair lineart.

Mecha tinkaton

reminds me of pony factory

At this point Yuuma's goofy smile from UDoaLG might need its own tag like kanmarisa_(meme).

Well done; what fun! The Infantryman blends the look of a Landsknecht and Wehrmacht Soldat rather seamlessly.

Finally worth opponent. Our fight will be legendary.

God help me, Yuuka looks so goddamn hot here, holy crap :2BLewd:

As stated by the artist, this is a reference to flandrepudding's series. pool #23414

Notched sword is insane detail

This came the same day than MLP FIM?

Based on this photo of the live-action TV show cast of One Piece.

Darn, arrested again, always on her shift in the same place all the time.

I saw the over the top blue hair and no shirt and immediately thought it was kamina from gurren lagann

Wait, is this a JoJo reference?
