   Oh god that plasticization of the faces is absolutely horrifying. Like a bad image gen AI from 2022. Or reptilians wearing cheap rubber masks.

   Edit: what&#x27;s with the downvotes?

      Presumably because others disagree. I also do not see it here. Zooming in there are clear pores and skin texture. Is it somewhat smoothed? Yeah, it has that feel. Does it look like a cheap rubber mask? No. And that phrasing is frankly very insulting to the pictured subjects.

         Somewhat smoothed? On the model at the back? Her hair has detail to it, but name one clearly defined facial feature on her face.
