back off by chanyeol

some people really need to know the difference between freaking tracing and painting off a photo. I'm sick of saying this to everyone personally and no, goddamn it these two are NOT the same and it doesn't make it much easier when you're using a photo for reference. there's absolutely nothing wrong with using references, and unless you're tracing it pixel for pixel, your art isn't much less worth than those who can paint it down by just looking at the photo (hands down, you guys are awesome tho)

oh.. so tracing means copying something that you see from the internet... Ya know i don't care if people trace or not. i mostly care for how much their able to draw it. I mostly think that mosre important and their fact of uncreativity. BUT i happen to like your work alot so people who say those words "You Don't Deserve the credit you get". Their mostly just upset they can't draw themselfs. In my case

Dude, you do these pictures SO GOOD! I trace mine, and they look like CGI...when I see your portraits, I feel like I can get there someday. It's a huuuuge encouragement :]

Yes, I'd like to see those people "trace" a photo. I've seen 'pixel per pixel' and such... and the results are soooo different. You obviously add some kind of talent and creativity to get the results you do. Some people are trolls... others are uptight... some are jealous, but if you're good at something, someone will be there to put you down. Unfortunately. You have way more admirers though. :)

Your art is beautiful. It requires technique and prior knowledge to understand portraits and such. Tracing is different than reflecting something and gaining knowledge from it. Those who don't realize that are just ignorant children.

I know right, its an art in itself to re create without tracing, its very tough I know, I draw digital realism using my tablet and just looking at the photo, its an art. getting it similar, you need to have that talent. I havent done any realism on this account since I was working on one and I lost my 3ds and never felt like drawing realism again after losing all that effort lol. this application has bad blending and stuff anyway so kudos to you. ;;;
