I don't know if it's just me, but has anyone of you had that weird observation skill like me?
For some reason, I often [edit: not often, just sometimes - claiming that I could "often" is a hypocrisy on my part] detect whether the digital illustration is made with what software it is
Based on the texture and line work
I could tell if it was drawn in Photoshop or Procreate (even though I haven't experienced Procreate yet)
I'm curious if there are people who can actually tell those things with just one look or I'm just plain wierd

I couldn't tell what softwares people use, especially in my niche because pixel art has squares and the sorta stuff you'd use to find out what softwares someone use goes down to the artist... Closest is telling if something watercolour was made digitally or traditionally

•Depends. Sai usually has long flowy lines since the stabilizer is apparently nice. Medibang tends to have soft u curves for whatever reason and quite often more saturated colors, Krita painterly and more muted colors.
That’s pretty much all I can do for digital stuff (with krita I can sometimes guess some of the brushes used) ^w^"

•I can't tell what program people use, but I can spot sus images. Whether someone has traced a photograph, traced another artist, or discrepancies in the knowledge between uploads that implies they're stealing art. Like, ive seen so much of it over the years it's just instinctive.

•I can’t tell the software, but I can often tell if a watercolor/india ink illustration was made traditionally or digitally. It’s mainly that water is unpredictable, but computers tend to use patterns, so you can usually see if there’s a pattern or not in the art.
It pretty much just comes down to if it looks clean or not. If it looks impossibly clean, it’s digital.
