A good example of referencing the wrong way. Notice how they nearly traced the original by TamberElla.
It’s not a screenshot edit… lines are too thin. It looks like this person raped fan art for a bad edit. They didn’t even bother editing the flower stem around Simba’s teeth. How many fucking times do you need to watermark something you stole?
Do any of you guys recognize this fan art?
It turns out this is actually screenshots used, from TLK ½. They just photoshopped the rose over Simba’s teeth where he’s pulled the thorn out of Nala’s paw. It’s amazing how their screenshots fooled even me!
And that’s how you copy folks!
If you’re going to reference, use it for hard areas like noses or how to get those pesky toes just right. Don’t just flat ass copy it line for line. That’s not how referencing works.
After this overlay I think it’s pretty obvious he starts off tracing, but then he puts his own effects into it to make new characters.
Still, that’s not how you fan art. Everything in this person’s gallery is either copied or directly traced and added onto from screenshots from the three films. It’s the CapricornFox effect.
I love how he says modeled when he’s an almost exact copy. Just another excuse to say copied if you ask me.
I’m surprised Evana hasn’t yelled at the original artist for allowing the little kid to trace this personal piece meant for her.
Hell I bet the little shit doesn’t know who Evana even is!
I need to back the fuck off this subject, this artist is making my blood boil.
Even deviantART’s newest widget “More like this” says it’s the ban evading child. That widget always displays the images you make on the deviation and it’s pinned Pizzarules5’s art as this person's
No means no!
Being a tumblr RPer myself, a moderate RPer of three blogs, I find it disrespectful to the artist to use artwork without permission if there isn’t a direct link back to the original. I recently stumbled upon a Scar RP blog that stole artwork from many artists for their little blog’s background and other items. Sure they linked back to fan art they posted.. but they didn’t give credit anywhere for the stolen art on their blog. If an artist says not to use their art in any way shape or form without proper permission, don’t use it! It’s very simple. There are thousands of HD quality screenshots online, it’s not hard to find some.
This loser goes around and acts like he owns and made Impressive Title just because he’s a staff member. He talks that he knows Copyrights but his “fursona” is just a recolored Kovu. He even recolors screenshots!
He knows shit about copyrights and should stop throwing his weight around. Pretty sure the lot of you know who I speak of.
