Did he use Midjourney? It looks like ai art

It makes square images, which would explain why the texture stops six inches up the image

The most recent thing on the artists Behance is labeled “generated images.” I agree this piece looks like AI.

I only just noticed that. I will ask the editor. Luckily there is an alternate cover by John Jennings which doesn't look generated to me.

I think this is a better cover anyway. Sadly I agree with the other person who says the first one looks distinctly generated.
