ITS EVERYWHERE! D: by AKAFoxTail

This was pretty much my reaction when I first joined Colors and browsed through the gallery. XD I mean, i'm all for learning from reference but jeez, theres SO MUCH! XD
RandomTracer: This is my new image I drew, like it and comment.
Me: But thats official concept art from Nintendo. :U
RandomTracer: I drew this originally though.
Me: *looks up official image on google* :l ...orly?

Anyways, just my thoughts on that, havn't posted anything in a while so here ya go.

I think Tracings fine as long as u give credit cuz sum pple trace 2D pics and make them 3d which is creative. :]

i hate it when people trace and get on weeks best and they don't even say they traced or don't give credit to the original. i hear that the colors update is going to include a trace filter.

^ Mmhm, can't wait! The update's coming in February, which will be a great b-day present for me :3 Meowser: Dun quit, dear, your art is wonderful. And there are many people here who love your art, I know I'm a fan[:

Glad we cleared that up. I'm trying to draw my own stuff now, but it's kinda tracing just because I drew it somewhere else..Hope no one's against that lol

Lightningrod

19 Jan, 2013, 3:32 pm

uh the Update is to be so that they will have two galleries on the 3DS- A Standard Gallery- and an 18plus Gallery(which i dissagree with). They cant include a trace filter cuz how are they going to know u traced it?

Lightningrod

Yeah, this subject pis.ses me the hell off, bro. My idea is just flag the little bas.tards
e____e" and that's me being nice to the little idiots.. I like the ones who actually let ppl know it's traced though. That's at least tolerable.

yeah, that update is supposed to be up sometime this month. Let's keep our fingers crossed for great fixes. Thanks, Brandon :) I'm Cecil. You can call me that or just Symph ( or Sym ). Whatever you want :D

Wish they had a FC filter among others...It's tough here; I'm an original artist but they get bupkis compared to the FA I do. Sad.

Whoa! All these comments! I know what yall mean, though! But I gotta say, I never would have learned to draw if I hadn't traced first. But I never showed my traced art to anyone... I was too embarrassed to be tracing haha and smart enough to know it would be obviously traced :P

I trace a lot of my old work just to make it 3D and tracing colours helped me shade things correctly... but other than that my drawings are free hand. cool manic face!

Not giving credit is BAD. But traced art is a way to increase your drawing skills. But of course if all u do is traced art you won't learn much. I'm tracing art from tv shows, but not from some artist online. Except for some art from Spyro does a thing on youtube. But thats just cuz it was funny & I gave credit on the 1st line in the description. All of this other art about peoples views on subjects such as gay is actually worse. Its not art just a wasted selfish opinon.

Glad everyone else hates tracing! It's why I never post because it just gets flooded with new traced stuff in the new art section...

Gahnite

I should add

Reference = ok
Tracing = not ok

With a reference you look at it away from you. It's how we learn from life to draw onto paper/PC. Tracing however, teaches you nothing. You won't understand the shapes or how to differentiate the size down to paper/PC. It's the same as writing an essay. Copy-pasting material doesn't teach you anything!
