Well Icesticker is the guy that helps me most on anything anthro but again he’s been out of pony for a while. And also if you want to say I’m delusional then fine. But again I know what I do and how I do my own stuff.
@Toxic-Mario
who is this artist that helped you? You are still refusing to say his name.
And no, it’s not changed enough to not be a trace. You are delusional if you think so.
@Background Pony #A21E
Again there’s still differences. It’s subtle but still differences. If you look REALLY close at the overlay-ed image it’s still not a 100% match and that’s where my adjustments and the artist helping me pointed out that the original has some flaws in it. I still have the original paths for this pic and even the paper sketch. Everything is still saved and I save pretty much everything I do. :) I guess in this case it’s a good thing I saved everything.
@Toxic-Mario
how can you keep saying it’s not traced? Almost all the lines perfectly match, and the other are just resized and moved a bit. It’s in clear daylight in front of everybody that it is a trace.
Yeah, you added legs and put rarity’s face on it. Big change.
@Background Pony #A21E
again similar yes. Trace no. That’s what I am gonna keep harping on cause yes…it’s similar. Very similar but to say I traced it is stupid. If I remember correctly the one section I DID take the lines to get right was the back line to hip and that front chest line below the breast. In a sense using those as a guide but still had to adjust my own paths sinc the chest seemed to weird on the origina. Other than that I just used the square tool to size up stuff…well line stuff up. I still had to make my own adjustment cause the front of her was now different than the original. To say it’s traced other than that is just crazy to me cause even with the pic off to the side I still reference it….heavily yes but traced no.
@Toxic-Mario
also, linking the artist you picked this from won’t take you long. If he actually helped you then you must know him, don’t you?
Or do you fear that by questioning this artist he will say that he doesn’t even know who you are?
@Toxic-Mario
how far up your ass is you head for you to think that just resizing and adding something doesn’t count as tracing?
You keep acting like you did absolutely nothing wrong and that the drawing is almost completely done by you.
Save you face, admit you traced, you’re only digging the grave deeper.
@Toxic-Mario
“I obviously stole the vast majority of this drawing but I didn’t steal THIS part therefore it’s all mine also you guys are big dumb doodoo bullies XD”
@Background Pony #A21E
You are still missing the part how I still need to make the face, hair, legs (especially the legs which no one is mentioning), and Backgrounds. You do know that a full trace to me is when you fully copy a pic TOTALLY. What I mean is you trace it from top to bottom and also the background is exact….and I mean EXACT.
Again dude you can believe what you want to and that’s your opinion and I have to respect that. I usually hate stirring a drama pot if I can cause it just stupid in a way. If you want me to credit the artist that helps me on these in the next ones then I can. The artist that helps me on this doesn’t care if I did credit him cause he doesn’t care about pony anyway anymore. But if it makes people here sleep at night and assure that he can defend what I do then so be it. Next anthro I put out I will credit him just so you can get off my case on that.
@Toxic-Mario
considering that this is a trace, your usual style and the quality of the other anime anthros… yeah, i have the feeling they’re all traced.
This however definetely is. You said it was yours. You said you were gonna sell stuff with it.
It’s not ok. At all.
@Toxic-Mario
calling me out on using an anonymous alias isn’t going to make your argument stronger.
And no, selling traced work is never ok, you can’t just go “i do what i want”. Are you aware that the original artist might sue you for copying and selling his work?
You haven’t changed enough for it to be considered different, it’s just above a mere recolor.
@Background Pony #A21E
Still hiding behind that BG pony label huh? I sell the anthros cause I can? You make it seem like every one of the anthros is a complete 100% trace like drawponies did especially cause they look similar to the reference. You make it sound like I am getting 0 help on these before I go into these. It can be as simple as “hey I like this pose…how can I do this proper and make the adjustments I need to make for my version”. XD I still am saying just come to my streams and watch how I do my stuff and tell me otherwise. k thanks. :)
@The Smiling Pony
I do believe I have the recordings when I did this saved on my comp. Usually Xsplit saves these. I sometimes have to clear some out to clear hard drive space since this is an old comp but I’ll see if it’s around. If not I have other recordings on other anthros to demonstrate.
Honestly man, if you care, you’re going to have to demonstrate, visually, how this isn’t traced. Because to most people that’s what it looks like; traced, or copied off some “base”, and then some proportions altered. Words aren’t going to do much.
You stream, but ain’t nobody got time to watch streams; if you have a recording, or take a recording of the next, however, that’s easier for people to click and watch.
