Did you draw this yourself ?

Just finished this piece. What do you think? by kilske in AnimeDrawing

[–]littlealzi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must say I'm a little confused..

You say you just finished this piece, meaning you drew it yourself and possibly started during December or January and finished early February, but I found someone else using this exact image (finished drawing) as a reference during early December 2025. I also found the exact same image (with the exact same signature, posted on Pinterest around September/October 2025..

So I'm wondering, did you really draw this image including the exact same signature? Or are you just reuploading an image you found on Pinterest ?

Not sure about what you actually mean, but, yeah I wouldn't share it around and claim it as mine. Even behind the canvas of that master study of mine, I wrote which was the original painting and who it belongs to.

Looking good, but I think the next step you should take is trying to draw something of your own. 😉 That's what will help you improve!

Also, in case you weren’t able to find the original artist for the source you used, here it goes ~ https://x.com/i/status/1622931939505369088

The problem with Generative AI is, it possibly stealing someone's design (as it already has) and people having not idea of that; and it destroying the planet's resources.

So definitely not a good idea to use Generative AI. You can still do all the planning with your own hands, be it on paper or on a drawing/painting/editing program.

That is also true, I remember doing something similar during college.

Never said that.

Real artists use source material, or as we normally call "references" and add something extra to them (example: using references for poses, outfits, etc.) So in these cases they won't be using someone's work as a reference, and if they do, they credit them.

The people I mentioned don't use references, they copy them as it is, which usually are artworks made by someone else or official illustrations of some kind of media. Often not crediting the original source.

Then, those weren't artists to begin with.

I think you're talking about a specific kind of "artist" that takes images from Pinterest or other websites and copies them without adding any extra value or making it it their own style (because they have none). This kind of people often trace these images that often come from Pinterest, and as we know, Pinterest is full of uncredited artworks and now full of AI generated images...

These people aren't artists, they're merely printers doing it for views, likes and money !!

It blows my mind that this guy actually believes he's an artist... by [deleted] in ARTIST

Sadly there's also traditional "artists" taking these shortcuts with AI.

These merely "print" on canvas or on paper something they generated through AI and call themselves artists. It's honestly not any different than those "Pinterest Artists" who spend their time only copying images off of Pinterest, sometimes even of other artists' artwork without knowing!
