How do I make a fake painting look real?
<|assistant|>
Making a fake painting look real involves several techniques. Begin by picking a subject, medium, and style that fit together, then gather reference material. You should also use photos or illustrations as references for your details. Start with an underpainting, and make sure to layer multiple colours to achieve realism. Focus on lights and darks, as well as different levels of colour contrast. Use a variety of brushstrokes and textures to further create the illusion of depth. Add small details such as glint and specular highlights to represent light and shadows, and finish with a protective coating.
