![]() The why we have things like knock off my little pony, both are plastic horses but as long as you can reasonably tell the difference it’s okay they are similar. But yet I see so many witch hunts based on stuuuupid misconceptions.Īs a general rule the legal threshold in the US for something to be considered it’s own work is if it deviates at least 30% from the original. If you quote someone it’s only bad if you don’t cite them. It’s literally like plagiarism for papers. Even tracing in some contexts isn’t wrong as long as people cite the source of the tracing. Someone else can also draw an emo furry girl based on monster soda and they are not always copying you. If you want to draw a furry emo girl based on monster soda. And even then if people derive from your work it’s okay as long as they cite you as a source. You can’t own poses, style aspects, color palettes or general concepts, you can only own the specific execution and ideas. Not knowing what constitutes as intellectual property theft. Don't kill me, but Bridgman's books are so full of this ugh. Many times the text is useless or explains the same thing with too many words. I just skim through the books and take what is useful. That you have to read entire drawing books. It just means that self teaching is possible. This obviously doesn't mean all professors are bad/can't help. It's true that when you start you can feel lost, but weird as it sounds, searching for free resources well is a skill you develop with time. There's videos about organization of subjects and self assessment, and also discord servers and subreddits full of people willing to help. That you need a professor if you're lost. I wasted so much time trying to find mentors with crazy theories instead of just drawing. You just need to keep drawing and take what you think works, not go nuts/run in circles trying to find the best method or follow every rule ever invented. Loomis, Bridgman, Lincoln, Mozart, whatever. Those are just some general things that annoy me. Just wanting to say that the art community in general is pretty nice tho. I'm pretty sure I could come up with some more. Just because you don't like it, doesn't give you the right to be an ass about it. Some people like to draw kinky-ass NSFW or bloody gore. This obviously doesn't just concern the art community. but I just think it's just kinda annoying. Yes, you'll learn to draw quicker when growing as an artist, but I swear most of those posts are just fake. There are tons of different ways to make art. Digital art is real art etcetera etcetera. Using references is important if you wanna learn how something looks. Tracing and stuff Is great for practice and doing the same over 3D models is not cheating. People telling others how to do their art. Your "original species" is not special, everyone with an ounce of creativity would come up with that on their own. Artstyle, color and post theft are not a thing. Sometimes people just don't want to hear negative things about their art. Nobody asked for your opinion, people just wanna have fun posting their art online. People giving critique without asking first. I could go on about the many things I hate about the art community but it'll be too long to text. If you want attention, you gotta work for it, it doesn't happen instantly. There's nothing wrong about wanting attention and validation but it's so annoying to see people get frustrated their first peice of art posted on an account with 0 followers only gets 1 or 2 likes. especially seeing some artists put down other professional artists is so infuriating. Putting other people down to bring their art up, or say 'well what I would have done'. They said they figured it out on their own and that they wouldn't give handouts and I just had to figure it out on my own. When I ask people about their technique only for them to either not respond (which i dont really mind) or even worse, they message back and tell you to figure it out yourself. Tbh I've built somewhat of a dislike towards artists the past few years, however I try to be nice to others even if they can be annoying.
