It's just that easy.

This is just to show ‪@andrewhuang‬ that even the card process he showed in his video didn't need ai. This is a real time video of my process of recreating the card showed in only 30 minutes. If I decided to spend twice as long on it, only an hour, imagine what else I could have done.
No ai necessary, just free stock photos and the simplest and most basic Photoshop tools. Also everything I did here can also be done in free art programs, so you don't even need Photoshop to do it. Heck, I could have also just used my mouse rather than my tablet for the drawing/painting sections, because the brush I used doesn't even use pressure sensitivity. Creating is free. Getting paid for it is priceless.

I know 30 minutes of silence is boring as hell, but honestly this really is for the "it saves so much time" argument. Like, this is literally the whole entire process, from beginning to end, and it's only half an hour, which in the grand scheme of things, particularly artwork creation, is no time at all.
