Regarding my recent Adopt/Theft
4 years ago
❤️╭━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━╮❤️ Please don't send any hate or backlash against the artists or current owner of the character! I've talked out things with the current owner and we're on good terms! We've come to an agreement that it's a pure coincidence/mistake and are both ready to move on from it, I ABSOLUTLEY won't tolerate any hate sent to anyone involved, please and thank you!The design in question: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/42681264/The other design in question: https://toyhou.se/11800818.nyota/gallery#36941605I felt it may be fitting to make a journal concerning this as I'm being a bit warned that there is a couple of people who are up in arms because they believe that I've ripped/copied this design, and frankly being someone with anxiety, hearing that isn't very comforting lol..But to make a long story short, there a few people that are concerned that I've ripped/stole one of Nymphvi 's designs, I'd like to clarify that this was not at all by intention, and any similarities are by pure coincidence. All of the inspirations that went into this design I will gladly link here:https://files.catbox.moe/29t8od.jpg (@kuroxer) https://files.catbox.moe/1m1shl.jpg (@AngelMaws) https://files.catbox.moe/r1b3ku.jpg (@Ptaha) https://files.catbox.moe/v101pl.jpg ( @AngelMaws) I will also link a side-by-side of both of the designs, and color-picking both of their palletes.https://files.catbox.moe/880yd3.pngAdmitelly the pallets are similar in tone, but this was frankly not my intention, I do hand-pick all of my colors for my designs and while not being a strong believer in the fact that color pallets can be 'stolen', this was at all not the case. Being someone whose been doing character design for years, and absolutely adoring it (as well as avidly owning designs made by others) I would never blatantly rip a design purely for profit. I have no shame in providing who and what I was inspired by in each and every one of my drawings, and I'd absolutely hate for anyone to steal one of my own designs or characters from me.The main concerns in similarities were: color pallet, hairstyle, the fact the eyes are rainbow-colored, the big hair, the star marking, the species and lineart color being the sameAnd what I would say in response: Nyota has a more pink-ish blonde tone to the color of hair while my design has a straight blonde/yellow tone fading into white (I understand colors can show up differently on every device, but from my side its a washed out yellow) I draw big and curly hair on almost all of my adopt, its a distinct signature to my style similar to how I draw big hips and ears.
The star marking is all over Nyota's design while mine only has a major distinct one on her back and around her horn, which was purely just to make her stand out in some form as she's a rather simplistic character aside from that.
The species was originally supposed to be a lamb/sheep, hence the weird ear shape for a unicorn (even the original file name is named 'lamby', Her eyes are not at all rainbow-colored, I can see how it may look that way, but they are a bright blue with a dark purple/blue hue, and a pink heart in the middle that resembles her pupil, which is a quirky little design trait I like to do in a couple of my drawings. I hope this clears up any and all concerns, If anyone would still like to question me further regarding this, I'd be happy to talk but I can assure anyone that it was a pure mistake. I strongly encourage others to be inspired from my work and others, I am avidely against gate-keeping inspiration, design traits, palletes and all things of that sort, due to seeing how many creators are harrased on a daily due to other artists wanting to protect their work and characters.
I don't rude words used against anyone, even with it being a big misunderstanding I don't want anyone feelings getting hurt ;w;
and thank you so much, I really appreciate it
Glad it was talked out, but it's still worrying for me
I'm glad you and the others involved were able to come to an understanding and resolve it peacefully.
