Hi I just wanted to let you know someone on artfight has traced and used your harpy monk art for their own character. Their username is spiritshr0ud and it looks like they have copied quite a few other people's art too.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention! Yeah this person straight up traced my art unfortunately
luckily this page got taken down but the account is still up so I recommend yall block them to avoid getting traced or stolen art
WHAT JOYOUS TIMES!! I AM FINALLY FREE!!! THE CURSE IS BROKEN!! I CAN STOP MAKING THESE STUPID BASES AND DO ACTUAL ART!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN I PLANNED A PROJECT WITH THESE ALREADY-
As always the more involved layers are in the reblogs. Do whatever you want just don’t remove the signature
When will internet artist remember that tracing is a key part of learning art?? Like obviously don’t trace someone’s work and like sell it for a profit or something like that. But tracing as a whole? Girl I was tracing things under my teachers instruction all through my after school art classes to learn where to shade. They’d have us trace outlines of things and fill them in with all the correct shading and details. They’d have us trace the same thing over and over until we got a feel for where things would go. That’s why light boxes exist, to trace with. Tracing isn’t some big evil art sin, it’s part of learning. Obviously don’t be selling art traced from someone else, THAT would be stealing since you’re making a profit from someone else’s art. But tracing for practice, using a base etc? Literally not an issue at all. I’m begging y’all to take an actual art class and hear it from a teacher yourselves.
Ok ok ok, so!! Batman oc here we go!! This is Josephine Anne Todd-Wayne, twin sister of Jason. Is it a bit cringe?? Yes, I do not care. She is blind bc why not, is a meta with abilities like Daredevil (enhanced senses).
My first oc in the Batman fandom, so she's kinda babygirl~
So I was also in my tracing phase when I made her (burnout suck so much lol) so here are all of the ones that I traced, but added my own spin to!!
Again, these bottom ones are traced!!! Not original work (I found the images on pintrest) (most are of Catwoman)~
Hey guys I was thinking of redesigning my splatoon guys!! 😲🤭
I think they were a bit too like the game style 💀, so wanted to try out a cool, sharper style 😊😁
I also think their palettes were a bit too… 💁, so I made them a bit more cohesive and warm 🤭🤭🤭
Tell me what you think 😘💕☺️
EDIT: All removed! Thanks for your help! 🧡they’ve changed their username to NewLeaf (formerly CheshireGata) https://toyhou.se/NewLeaf bc last i heard is that they’re doing more after they got caught lol. do NOT buy from them
