Right, right, I know, they look awfully similar, but there are little differences, so maybe it's copying instead of tracing, dunno. I'm not lessening how sucky what he did, just my habit of doubting everything.

Is he a fake white knight or fake butthurt? 
I find your reply to be childish and rather annoying, do what Gear-Boy should be doing and ease off on the Copy-Paste.

Hmmm. Didn't feel like it. And I hope it's annoying, it was kind of the purpose ! And, childish, me ? Why yes, and thx !

"Watch out, we got a badass over here"
The message with spamming caps or the message in itself? 
The spamming I get, sorta: "How do you like it?!" 
The message in itself? 
Are you saying that he's upset about something meaningless, takes up the mantle of a "fake white knight" to stand up for someone else whom never asked for it and harasses by spamming?

It sums up pretty much the thing, but also, just... A lot of people just went to GB just to harass him, because, dunno, it seemed cool ? But then you're maybe gonna call me a "white knight" too(call me paraonid otherwise)... I don't think I just agressed someone because it was cool, or everyone else did it too, and I saw that guy 5 times in 2 mins. Arg.

Fair point, GB might get too much flak at the moment. Not that he doesnt deserve it but maybe not of this magnitude. 
Yeah, you had the "white knight" going on there

Jesus Christ, you're seriously tracing over someone else's GOOD art to make your OC in a shitty bikini? Are you serious? I swear I'm done with people like you. Stop tracing and really learn how to draw.

Why is this still here?  You said you took down the traced copies.  You said you rarely use dA but you have new postings at least every two weeks.  You claim to be in college and an "artist" but you say you don't even know what a print is?  I still see a "buy this print" button up there.

Is that even considered tracing...? That is just copying a pose.. if copying a pose is called tracing, then tens of thousands of artists, animes, movies, etc. are tracing and thus wrong...

Damn-It-Sammit In reply to RagoxHatena [2014-10-20 21:10:54 +0000 UTC]

If you overlap the images, some of the lines match up perfectly. It's not a coincidence. There's a difference between referencing a pose, and blatantly copying it.

RagoxHatena In reply to Damn-It-Sammit [2014-10-21 08:55:04 +0000 UTC]

But what the artist is bothered about is that the pose is copied, which is in my opinion, pretty childish  to be mad about, but I can be wrong on multiple levels, I have been keeping myself out of this crap for the longest time possible, honestly I also don't give a damn about the whole 'OMG GearBoy is a fraud! OMFG GearBoy stole this! ZOMFG GearBoy did this and that and blablabla!', I agree with you on that it is a pretty cheap knock-off to just trace the lines and fill in your own character, but c'mon, do we really have to lose our shit because of it..?

Damn-It-Sammit In reply to RagoxHatena [2014-10-21 16:31:52 +0000 UTC]

How would you like it if someone traced your character, added some things, and called it their own, then started profiting off those tracings?


That's why everyone is getting so upset. Even if Gearboy wasn't profiting off these images, he's still claiming them as his own (without crediting), it's largely frowned upon in the art-world.


Basically, everyone on DA is some sort of artist, and with that, they can empathize with each other.

RagoxHatena In reply to Damn-It-Sammit [2014-10-21 17:07:03 +0000 UTC]

Look, I don't really care about people tracing me because I am a completely bad artist and I don't even draw good and I just don't get it that there is such a big cluster-f*ck about 2 different characters having the same pose? I mean like, they don't even resemble eachother in any way possible, so I don't really get the frustration, if it was like : redrawn with other colors, style and some small additions, then yeah, I completely agree, but I just don't seem to get it at this one..

Tray7 In reply to RagoxHatena [2014-10-21 19:51:03 +0000 UTC]

Its not copying a pose. You people need to understand the difference here. He has used the exact image and TRACED it! Jeezus.

Damn-It-Sammit In reply to RagoxHatena [2014-10-21 17:23:08 +0000 UTC]

Don't say that, you're just beginning your artistic journey. (not to mention, I've seen people steal all kinds of art, from all different levels.) 


The problem here is, the poses were blatantly traced, not just copied. You see, when an artist has a certain style, it becomes uniquely theirs. Hmm, just think about it, you're browsing DA, and see a certain picture from one of your favorite artists, you can tell right off the bat who drew it, right? They have a distinct style they they can be recognized by. 


In this case of tracing, Gearboy deliberately traced and took JJ's style. I personally believe The most noticeable feature in JJ's work, is how he draws hips and legs. I can pick out JJ's work JUST by those attributes. 


Look at the tracing, the legs are 100% JJ's style, with absolutely no difference. You see, that's what makes tracing so taboo, you're taking someone else's property, their perception on certain drawing aspects. 


I'm sorry if my explanation isn't too clear, I don't know how else to say it...

It was clear enough, seems that my definition of tracing was different than yours, but I guess I am on your side now, now that I know what the right definition is, the art style is stolen and I agree that GearBoy is at fault in this one, hope he is gonna find a way to settle this so that both parties can get along again.. well.. at least I hope so..

Damn-It-Sammit In reply to zoareena [2014-10-21 17:46:52 +0000 UTC]

Agreed. And if you look at his other stuff, there is no concrete style, they're all different. It seems as though he finds a style he likes, and traces it.


Hopefully something is done about this soon, I'd hate if he did this to even more people.
