Some people just want themselfs to feel good about stealing other peoples art. create your own poses.

Ok, so are people not paying attention to my "new breeds/creatures" post here cuz they KNOW about it? Or because they don't find it suspicious. What's the deal?

Ok....same basic principle is still going on...why is it that ever since Lovely_Little_Emo has let her Guardian of the Cold critter (sorry, I didn't feel like speaking German XD) be used...like five more people started making their "own breed" of wolf creature? I'm guessing its the same people who've yet to read this. Or have yet to comprehend it. But its driving me insane. I mean, yes, its fine if you have your own creature and stuff to call your own...but isn't it a TAD suspicious that a handful of people in the SAME LOCATION just randomly "made up their own" monster at the SAME TIME? Now...I know, Im not being paranoid about this. I just tend to notice similarities in artwork.

Good. So I'm not the only person that's noticed this. It's driving me INSANE! People need to use their own creativity. NOT someone else's (in this case Lovely_Little_Emo) creativity. :roll:

If they had started something in a few months, it wouldn't have been that odd, but no. They had to get the 'same idea' just as Lovely_Little_Emo announced her breed.

I'd like to apologize to Silver_Deni for a previous post I made, I shouldn't have singled you out. There are people who's styles are way more similar to Pample's than you. I probably shouldn't mention anyone's name. I'm very sorry and I hope you can forgive me, I was wrong to point fingers at you and I'll never single anyone out like that again. It wasn't even a good example. Once again I'm sorry.

Look.... I understand them. Every artist learn himself from others. Even the greatest artists in the history began like this. they copied other master`s paintings and learn themselves and improved their style.
But - of course - they didn`t show it anywhere. As time went, they created their own style, but they had to learn from their predecessors.

I've said many times that there's nothing wrong with learning from other artists, but if they're going to be showing off their referenced artwork, they NEED to cite. That's all. Then they NEED to learn to stop using references for everything. They will not improve if they don't.

Yeah... And what about that "Balto (i call it Balto just because of lack of another name for it) style?" I mean... it influenced me deep in my comic drawing..... but it`s just style, isn`t it? No copyright, but characters are copyrighted....
:shock:

The Balto style is a style everyone on this site is acquainted with. But all the same, one needs to find their own style.

hehe It's ok.
But I'd highly suggest to call me Deni...or if you Type me..try to not add that "_"(Slash or what)^^ because it's annoying me XD !

Umm Yes If you haven't noticed,Almost the whole Balto source is having Pample's style..if you pointed me out..I will try to get rid of..though I don't cite references on my drawings...
It'll be hard..but at least I will make cheer for the world.

Yeah.... creating you very own style is a long process. I would say neverending.

Its the same thing as learning and its something one needs to work on if they ever want to improve as an artist. Those who don't are simply lazy.

LOL... srry I'll be sure not to put the "_" by your name. I agree, it will probably be hard... in fact, your doing a better job that I am!! I'm trying my hardest to stop, but it takes time. And I guess I was being a hypocrite when I said that...

Forum mods, I highly suggest treating the "new breed" topics the same as the "adoption" topics and either just deleting them altogether or making a separate topic for them ALL(i HIGHLY suggest the former option)
