Jules, my Lethal Company OC for RP stuff. He's a new crewmate and still very naive. He thinks collecting some scrap can't be that hard, but he soon learns the cold hard truth

Your art is cool, do you take inspiration others?

Hello Anon, Thank you for your ask !

•I probably get artistically inspired by a lot of people in the mcdungeons community without knowing it 🤔

but if I should name people there's this artist called anipul who once draw their version of (non-blocky) Archie and I loved it so much I immediately wanted to do the same. I absolutely love drawing non-blocky Archie so it had a huge impact on me haha.

There's also vee-vee-the-starchild, hevyz, pixzyn and evvokers whom I love their arts. (There are probably more I forgot ;-;)

•Non mc related artists that absolutely inspire me are zoepillustrationoff (Tumblr) and marinscos (Instagram).

But my biggest artistic influence is Kohei Horikoshi (My Hero Academia) 😊

[raethestar-traces-blog]

tumblr user @raethestar frequently traces her art.

@raethestar​, also known as @rae-the-artist​, @rendiggitydog​ and @/RaeTheArtist on twitter, has been found to trace her art on multiple occasions. we feel it is important to bring this issue to light, as rae has used a few of her traced pieces as examples for her commission work in the past. considering that 1) she has not given proper credit to the bases she has traced from and 2) the work is not her own, this may be deemed as false advertising and is harmful for the original artists she has stolen from. evidence for the confirmed cases of tracing can be found under the cut.

PLEASE DO NOT ATTACK OR HARASS THIS PERSON. we are creating this post in order to bring light to wrong behavior in the hope that rae can identify this and refrain from doing so in the future. to rae herself, we kindly ask that you stop tracing from multiple sources, or if you decide to continue doing so, to 1) not use it as commission advertisement and 2) provide proper credit to the best of your ability.

first and foremost, the screenshot below shows rae referring to pinterest as her source of reference. however, it is important to note that rae explicitly deems the poses she draws as ones that “i come up with” rather than providing proper credit for the original bases.

here is a link to her pinterest, which contains many of the bases we found that she traced directly from. they can be found in the “Draw Ideas” board.

next, this post on tumblr, as well as this one on twitter, are rae’s commission postings. as we’ll show in a bit, two of these commission “examples” (the two on the bottom, listed under “Background/Extra Character”) are traced directly from bases and aren’t actually rae’s art, despite the fact that she is consciously advertising them as such. this is stealing, false advertising, and a direct lie to her possible customers. it is unacceptable in every sense of the word.

below are a few examples of traced artwork, at least from what we could find:

traced from the bottom right and top left poses respectively; no sign of any proper credit. the cleo one is included in her commissions examples. (feb. 18, 2020)

this one refers to using a draw the squad base, but does not credit the original piece or artist. (feb. 1, 2020)

another one from her commissions examples.

the original twitter account this base comes from appears to no longer exist, but the kanji has been translated to say “second copy/trace banned” 

ely’s 100k celebration piece. arms are traced from the middle, legs are traced from the right. ely does not condone tracing or art theft of any kind. (mar. 16, 2020)

traced from base 3.

and last but not least, this one is stolen directly from DeviantArt user Anipul, with no proper credit. rae’s version traced and mirrored the pose. (apr. 3, 2020)

tracing – even if it is claimed to be from a “draw the squad” base – is wrong if you decide to post it without proper credit and claim that art as your own, ESPECIALLY if you use multiple traced art pieces to “advertise” your art skills and gain money from doing so. it’s literally plagiarism. our only request to rae is that she refrains from participating in this behavior in the future, or to at least provide credit where credit is due.

to reiterate, PLEASE do not attack rae for this behavior. we simply aim to bring light to the situation. thank you for your consideration.

Now that it’s Fanwalker/Fan-Character February started by @leafdrake-haven, I thought it’d be a good time to reintroduce and update my fanwalkers! Up first, I thought I’d kick it off with the one that started it all, Halona the Wild One.

First image by me, but some lovely art by @isharton

Halona, the Wild One

Name: Halona Sumayung (pronounced Sue-May-Ung)

Colors: Temur (Red – Blue – Green)

Age: Early to Mid 20s

Plane of Origin: Balatog

First Planeswalk: Dominaria

History: Halona grew up on a coastal, island village that popular with trade and travel and always close to nature. She discovered her magic at a young age and spent much of her free time exploring the island and causing a ruckus. When she finished the nearby forests and beaches, she started scaling the mountains, and when those started to bore her, she built a small boat and took to the sea. To her, life was meant to be felt, seen, and discovered and to be filled to the brim with great memories. Her magic and her reputation only grew as she traveled, but bravery and spells can only take you so far.

Her home plane is famous for its Aether storms as its mana is as present in life as the weather itself. She had been tracking one for weeks, charting courses and rereading maps for its patterns until it finally sprung up. Waves crashed and wind whipped at her little sailboat, but she pressed on determined to sail into this mighty magical storm. As she approached the eye, she could feel the barriers of her plane become thin. For an instant, she glimpsed into the Blind Eternities and in an epiphanous moment, her mind opened to the vastness of the Multiverse. She didn’t understand it at the time, the pang of inspiration and the need to explore bloomed and her spark ignited.

Personality: Adventurous, driven, and brash, Halona is a bundle of energy and moxie that is always down for fun. She’s imaginative, quick-witted, and loves a good pun. She wears her heart on her sleeves and shows love to her friends and family quickly and openly. However, she’s just as cocky as she is brave and despite being very clever, she tend to have a more “barrel-through” approach to her problems. She likes to push buttons since she often never fears reprisal, but it’ll bite her in the ass one of these days.

Powers and Magic: In a broad sense, Halona’s magic is all self-centered. She doesn’t really know typical spells, the ones she does know are more akin to cantrips from D&D. The main force in her arsenal are her enchantments.  Most of these are umbras (i.e. Spider Umbra, Boar Umbra, etc), but she does have other more common buff spells, although they are usually sidelined compared to the umbras. Her main forte and her strongest power is her anti-magic. Much in the same way Gideon was “indestructible”, Halona is “hexproof” (and to a lesser extent has “protection”). She has a very instinctual knowledge of manipulating magic and mana that is directly around her and targets her. Lightning bolts bend around her, binding spells break on her skin, and mental assaults for the most part don’t even graze her mind.

Character Themes:

“The Wild One” - In conjuncture with being her title, Halona fills the gap in Magic’s setting of having a more lighthearted character focused more on exploration and the excitement of the vorthos experience. She has a wide-eyed, wondrous approach to experiencing the world and is the kind of person who wants to share this wonder with others.

“The Unstoppable Magic Manipulator” - Halona’s core powers come from the broad overlap of counter magic, hexproof, and spell redirection that Red, Blue, and Green share. Going with the Gideon comparison again, her protection is a bit more broad than his, but the limits are blurrier. I answered an ask describing her limits before, but the general rule of thumb is if it’s magic, she can resist it.

Notes and Asides:

Halona has made friends with a good number of peoples fanwalkers. Rather than repost and retag all the people again, here’s an answered ask with I believe most if not all of them.

Halona often describe magic and mana she feels through her senses. Rather than use more academic terms “leylines” or “mana” that typical wizards might use, she’ll usually say how those magics taste, what color they have, and how they feel to push or pull things.

Vignette: Michael Victor Troutman

"I didn't choose art. I was born into it." – Michael Victor Troutman

Michael Victor Troutman claims that his work contains no “pretentious message,” and that he just hopes to provoke an individual emotional response in each individual viewer. His unorthodox use of color and a deliberately unsophisticated approach to mark making give us paintings that might be more accessible to a broader audience for exactly their lack of “airs.” There is skill in the line work but a liberating lack of concern for what is academically appropriate in compositional choices.

Troutman’s work is reminiscent of mid-20th century art that included connotations from the past. “Amber” is quick and spontaneous, but cannot help but recall Andy Warhol’s portrait of Marilyn Monroe, while the sense of decadence with a hint of depravity found in “Cessation” seems to cite Toulouse-Lautrec as a part of its ancestry.

The artist is self-taught and has been exhibiting since the late 1990s. He primarily paints portraits but has experience with other mediums such as sculpture, found art, collages, drawings and the written word. He credits much of his artistic talent to his family, “especially, my father, Victor, & my brother, Aaron. Many other relatives—including my mother, who worked in the Culinary Arts & created edible sculptures, etc., and my sister, who worked in crafts & home décor, fabric/fashion, etc., & and uncles, grandparents, etc. who made swank furniture and kinetic art—are also influences/inspirations to my creativity.”

“I took advantage of the situation and used the tools, instruments & materials I found in my vicinity. Art is not a science, thus I did not continue formal training. Everyone is born an artist, but somewhere along the line most children morph into adults—they're too self-critical and judgmental.”

When Troutman expresses his aesthetic he tends to the poetical:

Some cold souls see art as an excessive luxury; one of them even said to me that “art is one thing that the world could do without.” But to that bastard, I reply, I retort that never has the world done without art. Art is ancient and as continuous as circles. I find that when something “does not matter” is when it/something matters the most because it's done as a thing/act in itself, alone, clean & pure & done because it needed or wanted to be done & it was not done to seek rewards in heaven & it was not done to evade punishment in hell; it was done because it was the R—> thing to do regardless of the consequences/effects.

ART is about AIM:

Attention

Influence  

Manipulation

- so please let me con you. Feel! ENJOY!

Troutman’s latest exhibition started March 3 at Open Community Arts Center in Louisville.

Hometown: DePauw, Indiana Age: 28 Education: BA, Spanish; BA, Political Science & Minor in International Studies w/ concentration in Latin America (& a brief period of graduate school MAT Spanish program) Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TroutmanArt
