(V2: fixed some edge artifacts)

I see that you utilized my attempt in this V2, at least a thanks would have been appreciated.

That said, I have some notes. My mask was overly feathered in order to make the switch from the original image to my element, which necessitated a custom film grain pass that I couldn't quite perfectly match, blend easier. I'm not sure if you were intentionally combating this or what but in the end the switch is extremely apparent as there's random smearing and aliased edges with mismatching colors everywhere.

Replacing such a major chunk of an image with upscaled elements is a challenge. To that end, I appreciate yours having the SFW's right hand position, although the extreme smearing from just throwing the JPG, extreme artifacting and all, into your choice of upscaler is not a great look. I'd recommend reviewing your workflow as I certain there are better options out there. Hopefully this criticism reaches you well as I only want you to produce the best you can.

Source image from DA seems to have a shifted brightness/exposure levels compared to the "template" from the official pack, that makes contrasting edges on big chunks to pop out.

, now with soft mask, per-region color balance correction and additional denoise/sharpen overpass. Darker areas still need some polishing though.

If Sandy Cheeks doesn't do it for you, the Creeper from Minecraft will be in next months pack.

Well, it got even more fucked up than the Creeper. I mean, we're still three months away from Halloween, but no problem for Maestro.

I still don't know for sure what content he has planned for his OC world, asides from the points listed above, but I guess it starts November onwards, so we'll see soon enough.
