(Opinion) Is using 3D models in CSP cheating?
5 years ago
General
Obviously this journal is not meant for those who use Clip Studio Paint, but I have a question: In your opinion, is using CSP's built-in 3D models as an aid for drawing the human figure cheating?
Now, I have to admit, my figure drawing skills leave much to be desired, and had I not cancelled my figure drawing class at Bakersfield College back in 2001, I may very well have gotten quite competent at that. I have been using those models a lot lately, and although I've known of their existence for some time, but only recently have I begun taking advantage of them. An argument could be made that that is their very purpose, to act as a drawing aid; however, I feel that a figure artist should not have to use models as a crutch.
What are your thoughts about this? Please let me know in the comments. Thank you in advance for your opinions.

No, I'd use models in order to help with poses I don't see it as cheating in any way.
