Thanks..

I was afraid for the longest time because I had a friend who told me it was always cheating. Like I told them that I was doing it out of my drawing book for practice and they still thought it was cheating. *shrug* But I think they might have been biased because they've had trouble with art thieves and tracers and such before. That kept me off for a while. But then I realized "hey I'm not doing anything wrong with it I'm not using it and no one will know if I do it to learn. I'm not hurting anyone and it's the way I learn best."

Since I started doing it I've seen amazing progress. Nowadays I can look at something like an illustration in a manga comic and remember the moves it took to replicate stuff and I can draw something just by looking at it.

I have a method of using tutorials to practice off of by doing layers upon layers. Then I delete all the extra layers and go onto something else. I figure that a person who wanted to use tracing to cheat would see this as pointless because it's destroying the traces but really I don't need the traces....I just need the understanding I get from the exercise. I don't need the traced layers because they weren't really mine to begin with.


It is cool :3
