I have no idea what you are referring to when you say an artist does something wrong. What is the wrong? I'm confused. :\

"Yes, the artwork is original."

Same with fanfics too. I don't see the problem?

Of coarse the pre-established backstory/character/relationships aren't original. My argument just was that there is a bit of originality to every piece of fanwork period, and you admitted to it that it is.

I know that fan(anything) is just that a piece of art that is dedicated to another artist's artwork.

Honestly? I wouldn't have a problem people paying for fanfics. If they made it like into a little book that would be neat! Sadly, this hasn't caught on but I wouldn't be against the idea.

I think we are pretty much in agreement, but I'm still confused about what you think is the "wrong".

(Sorry if I snapped at you earlier but this stuff is touchy for me. lawl.)

(deleted comment)

If a fanart/fancomic is done by commission is it still right?

I don't consider it wrong, because:

1) the artist isn't making a huge profit from it.

2) The Japanese let this stuff slide, despite copyright laws, because they know the artist is barely making any profit and it's free advertising for the original work.

I don't believe you are in the minority from my experience. Considering that fanart is frequently stolen on a daily basis, and people would rather ask how to steal or get a doujinshi for free then pay for it. (Atleast from my experience.) I think that it is often shared but not out rightly said opinion, if y'know what I mean.

But y'know it can also be 50/50 for all I know. Pfff.

That's funny that works in your head like that. lol

I've actually seen commissions all the time on DeviantArt! D:

/shrug

I guess you are.

You're the minority, but you're not alone. I think exactly the same thing, because profiting off someone else's hard work and creativity is wrong. Selling fanart is wrong, and I really don't get how people can't understand that simple thing. It's something you do out of love of the original material, not something you do to earn money!

I'm going to guess you've never seen the huge piles on against fan writers who try to make any type of profit on their fanfics. In fandom, selling fanart = a.ok. Selling fanfic = OMG! You're STEALING FROM THE ORIGINAL ARTISTS!!!!

It has happened, a lot, and every single time someone makes a 'little book' the fandom explodes.

I would be more then happy to support fanfic writers if they would want to do that. I honestly don't see the problem with it. :\

Is it hypocritical of fandom? Most definitely.
