OC stealing
3 years ago
So, I know the person I'll talk about probably follows me and I'll invite them to UNFOLLOW ME.
Had an encounter on discord with someone asking to commission a sketch page of Colossus (my own oc). I said sure, and gave them a discount as well.
Then they randomly told me it was to use him as roleplay and didn't even care to ask for my permission? I explained it's a no for that and they seemed to understand
Then later, they DMd me to ask for art advice, which I said something, and then they sent me a "WIP"...
But they just happened to have completly traced AND copied Colossus's old ref and didn't even ask for permission so..
If you see a character using the same base and that looks like a copy of Colossus (same armor patterns and light patterns) then please let me know about it I would really appreciate.
He is my everything and I absolutely HATE art thieves and this type of people.

I even had to use a full page water marks to try to avoid the stealing... one day someone even took a drawing of me and tried to sell it on Amazon.. They have no respect for nothing..
I wish there were more verifications for sites to make sure the posted images were made by the user, artists already have complicated enough lives ffs
It is kinda annoying but i recommend using your signature as a watermark.
I created a whole layer of hidden signatures for every drawing i'm about to share. One time this works, because some imbecil was saying "that's not your drawing, what proof do you have?" and then i show him where all the hidden signatures were, so he give up and he apologize.
Déjà qu'il fasse ça, c'est plutôt dégueux, mais d'où il a cru que venir te voir directement après pour des conseils, ça se passerai bien?
J'ai une pote qui a un petit serveur discord populaire et à qui c'est aussi arrivé...
Une meuf voulait acheter son sona, ma pote a dit non (évidemment), du coup elle a carrément tracé et copié le design d'une manière bien dégueux en changeant presque rien, et après elle est revenue vers ma pote pour une commi' de son "nouveau sona"
Je comprendrai jamais les gens comme ça, c'est entre-autre pour ça que j'ai peur de poster mes propres OC et worldbuilding...
Courage en tout cas, ces gens là valent pas grand chose, c'est pour ça qu'ils essaient de faire les sangsues auprès de gens qui réussissent dans la vie.
Si je vois des trucs sus', je te ferai savoir!
Et le culot de la meuf quand meme pour ce qu'elle a fait a ta pote...
