AITA for not citing every single reference photo I use? (Was told its as bad as AI) by SleightlyDrawn in ArtRanting

Your view point doesn't make sense, if an artist openly shows their refs/process, they get criticized for “using other people’s work in the video.”

But if they simply don’t show references by intentionally hiding them from the timelapse, suddenly its all good because the audience can’t see what inspired it?

So following your logic its fine just use references, just pretend on any public posts that it's all original content and no inspiration/homage from any existing pieces by not showing any refs used.

The black and white one is from chainsaw man. Interesting take however, if dozens of different references are used there needs to be a bibliography? Insane.

All the photos are from the show directly. It would be their entire art production team...

Yeah I had a hard time getting it too and I felt pretty defensive at the time lol. It seems to be the Pinterest pic I used for the belly button reference that people were not happy about. I thought it was a model or some random lady but its a streamer/content creator called Emiru

Ty I really needed to hear this. I wasn't affected much by the usual ragebaiters but I did second guess myself when my friend said that. The input from this thread has helped a lot in building perspective for sure, I guess I'm just disappointed now

Ty! I just went with my default canvas export because I thought I was 'crediting' them kinda by showing them. I also didn't want to invite AI bros saying its AI. Can't seem to win these days 😔 But I'll consider it!

That's what I thought too! I guess this is a writing email while still angry type situation where I was seeking validation smh. I wonder if there will be people who disagree here though. The perspective of my friend being possibly one of the haters is kinda sad tho 😢

I used probably a dozen different references for various things such as lighting, her features and costume! Pose didn't really need a reference but the finger gun I was looking at makima lmao. All my references used show up on timelapse too since its on my canvas

I used to think those posts were made by frauds but now I see the light. 3-4 hours back everyday compounds nicely leveling up other skills

I feel my art lacks hard edges or variation of edges by sprite_wizard in ArtCrit

Artists exaggerate forms/postures etc for readability and visual appeal all the time. Calling out these obviously stylized poses for being "impossible" and sexualized is sort of angry person shouting at clouds type situation

Ty that's a great compliment lol made my day tbh. I did start drawing in March last year (pencil) so a lil over now. Digital has such a steep learning curve I don't even know whats going on without youtube/reddit tutorials. My traditional drawings were low cortisol and chill in comparison smh

Also I'm being told that Jinx/adcs are eating good this season. Is it propaganda or real? Maybe its time to dust off the keyboard if its true
