@TheFizzyFloat I think it’s a little wrong and disingenuous when they talked privately and have said there is not tracing here. And the lucky stars one is a big stretch I can say the first one is similar also not traced but the lucky star one isn’t overlapping at all.

📌Regarding this matter
I posted this after having her review the content.
We’ve made up, so please don’t argue.
A misunderstanding arose due to a discrepancy between our respective intentions and how we interpreted each other’s words. However, through discussion, we cleared up the misunderstanding and reached a resolution.
・I have never said or even thought that “she is tracing my illustrations.” Therefore, that is not true. I simply felt that they were “too” similar.
・I have never made any comments to her such as “Don’t draw moe-style illustrations” or “I have exclusive rights to moe-style illustrations.” Furthermore, these comments did not come from her; they were made by people who misunderstood her posts.
I have been a victim of [plagiarism, tracing, AI training, unauthorized reposting, etc.] up until now, and it was my mistake to lump all of those issues together with this particular incident in this post. I should have resolved the issue with her separately and posted about the other matters distinctly. I apologize for causing confusion to her and to everyone who learned of this matter.
To prevent future misunderstandings, we will both delete all posts related to this matter.
Please refrain from posting critical comments directed at either of us or sending us direct messages. I apologize for involving everyone in this.
@pipururuVT I’m sorry about that Pip but you’re a talented artist, I’m sure what you create next even if it’s not Moe will be supported. I will support it. I know you liked drawing this way but if you have a TOS to follow it’s no choice really. I’m glad you cleared it up in DMs eventually.
@Pupfettiii@pipururuVT I mean the image is warped and shifted. You can see it not matching up in other images, it has to be warped separately to fit all parts. Sure similar but this is not traced. Even so the style is very simple anyone can replicate its a little gatekeepy for U shaped eyes.
@pipururuVT This is something that should’ve stayed private you messaged her clearly saying hey let’s find a conclusion, I can stop drawing this way. Also really they have to stretch drawings and say you traced to justify this artist. It’s just some damn eyes with a U shape. Nothing burger.
@s_r_n_34 Aren’t you the bigger artist, she never said you owned moe she just understood you were uncomfortable said I’m not gonna draw like this anymore and find something new. What’s wrong with that? Shouldn’t you be happy? Plus she dm you asking what to change in her art that’s sad man
