Seriously Mike. Seriously Silly.

Meanwhile if you take similar sets of ingredients that work towards different end goals (like Mexican and Italian cookbooks both have different notions of what to do when the raw ingredients are tomatoes, beef, and wheat) you wind up kind of having to favor one or the other in most cases or wind up with like, linguini in a burrito. Where the spices are different will be the most compelling space more often than not.

You're gonna need a lot of diced, fried kiełbasa. Maybe with some onion. Add some of the best bigos you can find, around as much as the kiełbasa you got. But it's gotta be serious bigos, with dried mushrooms and all the works. Top it with chopped jalapenos and shredded cheese, and you're there.

Fun fact: In Canada, according to the Supreme Court decision on Alberta (Education) v. Canadian Copyright Licensing Agency (Access Copyright), people are allowed to copy stuff for educational purposes insofar as it's a "reasonable amount". This decision also explicitly stated that it does not have to be for only personal education either; teachers are explicitly allowed to take bits and pieces as needed for teaching.

What counts as reasonable will depend on the situation.

Here’s my portrait of Ash done by Simone Mulas, all framed up. Done in charcoal, I asked Simone to create a photo-realistic portrait of Ash and I think he delivered the most amazing result. The detail is mind blowing. You have to see it in person to really appreciate the fact this thing is hand drawn, but I did my best to capture it in photos.

I have vague recollections of a photo of Johnny Depp in this pose and denim jacket, back from the early 90s when it was most probably a poster in the Bravo magazine.

I thought that Google would match it to the drawing through a reverse image search, and shit got weirder.

Because instead of going through photos of Johnny Depp, it pointed me to River Phoenix instead. It even brought up a photo of him used in the article on English version of Wikipedia.

As you can see, I also did find shots of Depp in the appropriate attire, taken by Timothy White back in 1987. But the shot I remember must have come from 1993 or so, around the time "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" was filmed, matching the longer hairstyle. Like, my mind is screaming that it's Depp, but with River Phoenix's face for some strange reason.

Quite the opposite, in fact. This is fully human work, and I can see it clearly for good and bad. It's a solid tourist trap boulevard hustler job done in traditional media, something that isn't exactly going to get you an enrollment in a fine arts academy, but as long as you're in it purely for the money and don't intend to go into politics because of some imagined grievances related to that, it's a living. Just keep roping in suckers for $300 copies of photos and keep your mouth shut. There's a seemingly endless number of idiots around to bilk for purely ideological reasons as it is.

I'm impressed with the research, though. The guy could just pull any old shit being pestered for a realistic portrait of an anime character and not expecting demands for a refund. I've seen what some hucksters peddle for a tenth of that price and still get clients. But here's the deal.

You're thoroughly fleecing a teenage girl for a portrait of some guy from Chinese cartoon with AI-generated dubbing that she saw on Netflix or some shit (two lies and a truth here, not that anyone should care), which should already be a clue that you're in for the easiest money ever. You could replace those generic six strokes on a featureless pasty triangle of a face with just about anyone. But, you keep digging. You find out on Wikipedia that's not just any cartoon, but an adaptation of a comic series older than you (and moreso than the client), and the comic book version of the guy was based on a deceased and forgotten celebrity overshadowed by his brother for the last quarter of a century. You go with the late 80s/early 90s fashion that you might have found online in a certain specific panel from the comic, and not the post-9/11 getups from the animated version.
