So it’s entirely possible that this person does real work, but this image in particular is AI generated. I’ve created almost the exact same thing in Midjourney with generic “create a lightning wizard” prompts when I was trying to create an image for a D&D character. The little lantern-like object near his head, and the horn-shaped thing on his chest don’t completely fit the image.
And then if you look at the deviantart page, check out the hands on the Infernal Conjurer…
It’s still cool, but I distinctly remember that face. Unless this specific image was what trained my results, I’m just a bit skeptical.
EDIT: Published in 2012… this is literally what trained my AI results then. I take it all back

I appreciate you being on the look out! It just goes to show how hard it can be to be sure nowadays.
