Robes? Sure, they are comfy. But a hat this pointy? In a place that I'd assume to be pretty windy? If that's a fashion statement, then that's really impractical and I hope you're not allowed anywhere close the runic circles.

These staircases and walkways really need railings. How about you conjure up some building codes there, Merlin.

The sky fortress is not for the faint of heart or poor of balance

Real wizards are always prepared with feather fall, just in case

Forsooth, I find it is thy mother who needs railing! Merlin OUT! 🧙🏻‍♂️

Those, who would die from such a meager fall, are not worthy.

Where are these wizard illustrations from? They are amazing.

I'm not sure where they originate - I usually just find these memes circulating. I love the art too, although I'm suspicious that some could be AI these days. It's getting really hard to tell.

Very good point, I have no way of telling whether some of them are AI. But yeah love the style too! Have to see if I find the origin.

Thank you for the link.

And damn, that's disappointing to see.

:( was hoping there is a book or something with a story or an artist with such a theme.

According to Tineye, this image first appears on Imgur, with the caption. If no artist posted it as their work, it's probably AI.

They are definitely ai, i see them often on instagram and at least one page was selling the original prompts for specific pictures which probably has some deeper meaning in it

[–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

Thanks for pitching in. I have to say I'm a bit bummed out. I was expecting some cool book with this theme or something :(

This is the image I imagine when I listen to the song Stargazer by Rainbow.
