Draw your Character

[Tule]

Whatever helps you sleep at night dear~

Logic and common sense. It does help. Feels good. Try it sometime.

Maybe you can MMS it to your email?

Maybe I can what now?

I would draw me but, if I did and posted it, I'd be so damn sexy and awesome because of my lala amazingness that everyone's computers would over heat and explode out if shear excitement and then no one would be able to play ffxiv.















.... Jk, I just can't draw
XD just picture an awesome little lalafell.

Trace or not trace I'm happy with the work of art Shenandoah did for my character and the others.

(I'll repost it here)




Even if inspired or traced is still a work of pure kindness for him to draw random unknown people's characters on this forum. He didn't take any money for it, if he took money for commissions on "traced/stolen" art I might understand the complains but he didnt.

You didn't had to crucifix him like that, seriously. And again: even if traced or not, there's still a lot of work from him to make the effort count.

I like your art Shenandoah, thank you again for drawing Noll.

If that's logic then I must live in a different dimension. I don't know about you but I have frequented many art communities for a good half of my life. Seldom do people that do these "fun" memes credit the people that actually to the work. Seldom do they do it for fun~ They do it to ride the bandwagon and get their own egos stroked.

If fun is throwing someone else under the bus so that I can gain a couple page views, no thank you.

Except thats not what is happening it all? That image is the poster girl for a "Yandere" and when you google "Yandere" or "Yandere Face" you will either get the original art, or one of the memes that is quickly and easily traced back to the original art. That image might as well be the Mona Lisa of the internet. So when people do memes based on it, it isn't art theft, its more like a reference. Hell, google things like Mona Lisa and tack on "Parody".

It isn't art theft if everyone knows thats the point of the image. Kind of like how cosplayers aren't stealing when they cosplay, I doubt cosplayers get permission to use character designs. You just have to be intelligent and logical when it comes to things like this.

So, if I drew my character (or any character really), with like square eyes, triangle ears, rectangle nose above my head, and an describable shape for a head....would I catch flak for "copying" Picasso?

If you could put them right on top of each other and all of the lines matched with a few exceptions, yes. .

@Tule

That is NOT how it always happens though. There are people that have had their likeness and work used without permission. You're using best scenario case that worked out for the best to justify all the times that it has turned out wrong. Because "Yay~ its fun for me. That makes it ok."

Keep your skewed "intelligence" and "logic" along with all your self-severing interest. I'm done with this thread.

Mr. Spock would slap you for lack of logic.
