Followed. Love that Gilda sketch.

@Skoon  
Here you go.
 
That’s my secondary Tumblr. My main Tumblr is over here.
 
Have a good day.

@Kakapo  
Feel free to! Let me know when you do, I don’t know if I have visited your tumblr before.
 
In my opinion you’ve improved on it. She’s less grumpy-embarrassed and more flat out blush manifest and that’s pretty adorkable.

@Skoon  
Thanks. Happy that you like it. C:
 
I still remember stumbling across the original when it was the background image for your Tumblr somewhere last year. Tasteful posing in that one. I don’t suppose I could repost this in one of my Tumblrs for documentation sake? (Crediting you and the source of course)

‘eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey This is awesome. I’m glad I inspired somebody.
 
In before someone accuses me of stealing the idea from you at some point (it actually happens, people are dumb). haha

@The Smiling Pony
 
Sure, whatev.

@Kakapo  

 
Lol people are like Sherlock Holmes when it comes to that kind of stuff :P

@Kakapo  
Fair enough. :)
 
Funny thing is, that comparison .gif I posted earlier started out as me checking if the “accusation” of tracing held any water at all… :D
 
Very nice work, by the way.

@Kakapo  
Don’t think anyone thought you were trying to pass this off in any nefarious way. Also I can un-anon the upload, if you want.

@Exhumed Legume  
I edited out the “anonymous” part in the description after my artist tag was added since I might as well come clean about it.

@Kakapo  
Welp, that settles it, then.  
I think the issue here was that you uploaded it anonymously, so the claim of tracing in the description (which I could swear said it’s by an “anonymous artist” earlier) was, well, just an anonymous claim.
 

Well, your faces in particular are rather distinctive…

@Kakapo  

 
really? I’ve always found your style to be very distinctive
 
but yeah, you had some pretty bad timing with this one

I uploaded the image. I’m under no delusion that the pose wasn’t traced, in fact I made it a point right off the bat to state that it’s a trace and to credit the traced source. I just wanted to augment the pose with a wider framing and some clothing as it has potential. I’ve also been sitting on this PSD file for over a year, so that’s one loose end I had to tie eventually. That said, it’s funny how users managed to identify my art style within 30 minutes of uploading despite not intending to reveal my name.
 
It also seems I uploaded right on the heels of a shitstorm involving an certain artist with over 1 million DA page views tracing without credit and denying that he is. What timing.

@Liggliluff  
@Blissey1  
Tracing is less of an issue than people screaming “TRAAACCCE!!!11” whenever someone draws a pose someone else already used…
 
 
Having said that…
 

 
The pelvic area is nigh-identical, the arms and breasts less so.  
And the face is -obviously- completely different.

@Blissey1  
Sure, that is true.  
But I’ve seen people going mad over traces where such claim never was done.

@Liggliluff  
tracing itself isn’t an issue. tracing is fine.
 
it’s tracing then claiming it was 100% you that’s the problem.

Still don’t get the issue with tracing.  
This site is filled with illegality already xD
 
Mirroring without permission; and the owner has to ask to be added to the DNP list.

Yeah, quite clearly a reference, lines don’t match up at all, shoulders are the closest and that’s just due to scale. It’s an interpretation/redraw in another style, and as I adore how King-Kakapo draws Twilight, this piece is amazing.

I do like panties.

@The Smiling Pony  
I’d go with reference/inspired by myself. Especially since Kakapo added quite a bit to the overall pic.

This looks like what his name kakapo. kakatpo?

Redraw, reference, inspired by, yes. But if this is what’s considered a “trace”, then I’m actually a mildly malformed kangaroo wearing people-clothes.
 
Which I am not, btw.
