Re: #154 OP
(Anonymous) 2008-09-27 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)Ah, I see your point. The artists I've seen that I'm pretty sure are tracing, still manage to create something original through their coloring, or the addition of other things into the drawing, etc. Often, the source picture they use is only part of a much larger scene. One artist I'm thinking of (an HP artist -- maybe the one someone mentioned earlier because her LJ's been deleted), I always figured she photo-manipped actors' heads onto the figures' bodies and then placed them into a Hogwarts-like setting. The fact that she might have traced it when she was finished composing the scene didn't make me any less impressed with her final product. She did gorgeous, nicely composed drawings of scenes that didn't exist before she put it all together. Sounds like your artist needs to try harder!
As for, 'when they were praised for their ability to draw proportions, perspective and poses they have never once corrected their admirers, that is annoying. It's understandable, given fandom's tendency to freak out about tracing, but still annoying. I know what you're saying, I really do. My own pet peeve is the fakers on Ebay that take a photograph (not even copyright-free photos), run them through some Photoshop filters, print it out on watercolor paper, and try to claim that they 'painted' it.
