The person who traced and recoloured Kovu and claimed they drew it? Claimed they drew this too :’D

Quote from the ‘artist’:
“THIS IS DRAWN BY ME! IT IS NOT A BASE”
…It’s… still traced though…
My thoughts exactly
So i decided to compare Stitch and bunga with the new mlp character i’m just going to say it looks like a mash up between both i could be wrong lol . images where from Google . feel free to let me know you’re thoughts on this
Send help! I’m dying from giggling over here!
As promised, my art progress. These are my TLK rolepaly lion characters, left are character sheets (and desings) dated back to January 2015 when I gave up tracing and started actively drawing my own stuff and right are current refs I drew yesterday.
How many more “I trace because I can’t draw” we need to hear before people realize tracing won’t get you anywhere? :D
You’re going to hear it one last time from me: I trace if I need to learn something new, to get a better handle on its structure and to make a shape skeleton for future drawing reference. But tracing and claiming yours because one can’t draw is ignorance. Anyone can draw if they put their heart into it and learn.
Amazing progress!
Mafuma:
No but seriously. They’re threatening to call the cops on us and get our IP’s tracked? Bruh. I’m in the United States. The KGB ain’t gonna do shit to me unless I’m threatening your life.
We’re mostly United states residents(Myself included, even if I don’t consider current president as my president). Is she that dense? Yes. Yes she is.
since we’re sharing, here’s mine.
i normally trace a pose to get a basic shape and work around that. but that’s for my own stuff that nobody actually gives a crap about. eyeballing this was… hard.
Eyeballing is hard but the more you practice it the better you become. That’s how I reference half the time.
I’ll throw in my “referencing vs. tracing” thing here too since I’m being accused of tracing screentshots…
You can see it was very referenced, but my personal spin on the Disney style still shines through. And when overlayed, they don’t even begin to match up.
HAO DARE we have double standards about referencing! DERP
Mocking Mafuma aside, tho your referenced pic is very nicely done. There is no harm in referencing. Especially if you dunno how to draw the thing it is you’re trying to draw. I should point out that professional artists have to use references for the subject that they’re suppose to be drawing either by contract or by commission. Disney animators would never have animated on model without model sheets to reference from. But according to Mafuma us regarding referencing is okay v tracing is bad is double standards. If an artist does not learn to use references they will not better themselves. Even if an artist loudly proclaims they don’t reference any material at all.
