Wow, Wizards really needs to better vet artists or indeed artwork at this point.

    It looks to me like the mtg image used the figure from the Cyberpunk art as the base for the second figure, and made some slight changes.

    So it would be unauthorised reproduction of copyrighted artwork for profit, if I’m not mistaken. Could also be that it was mostly regurgitated by an AI and used as a base, which at this point would be even worse for Wizards’ PR I reckon.

      It’s probably conventional image manipulation. Despite the news, not everything is AI. The old techniques still work.
