109. It pisses me off, as well. I couldn't care less if someone references because honestly everyone does it, though I tend to only reference my own pictures because I really don't care for reference stock because you have to credit and the pose has already been used by a lot of other people. I've been able to tell when a lot of people are tracing stuff or using photo scraps and have seen some of them get called out on it. It makes me uncomfortable to learn that some artists I once admired aren't above doing this. It makes me feel even worse that I found out that the very digital artist who made me want to try digital art all those years ago was tracing and using photo scrap. Yes, she's very talented regardless but it set standards that I could never live up to because she was literally using portions of pictures in her artwork. All the late teen angst I had over not being as good as her ... and then I find out that in a sense I was always better than her because I was completely self taught, and did it completely without having to incorporate photos and what not. I've lost a lot of faith in artists ever since then and each time I find out another talented artist is doing something similar it becomes worse.

What gets me is that people have the nerve to get pissed off when they're caught. What are you pissed at? You're the one lying to everybody!

And worse still, the fans don't care. The like it because it's "good" or pretty or whatever, but that's a total lie. It's not good! But they whine about their favorite tracer being punished because they want more. Then they try and make up excuses and get pissed off at people that are upset or angry about it. They need to get their priorities straight.

And no! That is now how you reference people! Reference does not mean adding a layer in photoshop and tracing it with your tablet and coloring it in. They used to make coloring books like that with tracing paper over an image so you could trace and color. Same concept here kids, tracing it doesn't mean you drew it! Referencing is when you can't figure out how the hell to get a hand to look right, so you find a photo with it and figure it out so you can add it into your picture. You refer to it to get things right, you don't lean on it because that's all the ability that you have.

Art theft really ruffles my feathers. I can't even understand why you'd want to do that. If you're getting popular for lying people, it's all fake and dissatisfying anyway.
