One of these is a photo of cosplayer Shirogane-sama as Nier: Automata’s 2B. The other is a 3D model made from scratch by artist Chauliac Romain.
Both images look equal parts real and too real for their own reasons. And if you haven’t been able to tell which is which from the watermark on one of the images, the cosplay is on the left while the 3D model is on the right.
We’ve featured Shirogane on the site before, with her incredible Persona 5 effort in 2017. Romain, meanwhile, is an artist based in France. You can see more of his work at his Gumroad and ArtStation pages.
Fine Art is a celebration of the work of video game artists, showcasing the best of both their professional and personal portfolios.

So crazy.
Spotted which is which from the fingers on the left hand. Ring finger disappears basically.
Still a great set of Artwork
For me, it was the shoulders, the hair tips, and how the rendered picture covered a practically perfect dynamic colour range.
Otherwise, a superb job. I really had to look twice.
