> [@BeepKillBeep](#): > > Maybe they stiffed him so he did a bad job. It’s a hack job, with clips stolen from clothing ads, and Trump’s head sloppily photoshopped on top. This is not the work of an artist. Perhaps he was an artist once. You could hire a master portrait artist, ask him to do a 45 minute photoshop hack job, and you’d get these “digital cards” ---

Looking at his history, it seems like he went hardcore into NFTs. He seems to have stopped making art about 4 months ago. Probably due to the collapse of the NFT market. Too bad. He can definitely draw. ---

> [@Euphonious\_Polemic](#): > > You could hire a master portrait artist, ask him to do a 45 minute photoshop hack job, and you’d get these “digital cards” The thing is, there are 4,500 cards with a maximum of 20 copies. That would mean at least 225 images would need to be generated. Just how much time would you expect the guy to spend on the project before Trump-fatigue set in? ---

45,000 cards. They appear to be AI generated using by combining various background, outfits, and accessories. It’s not like they were individually created. A picture is worth more than words here.
