@nonsensicaIdrea i think whats happening here with a lot you guys is that youre taking offense to my use of the word 'copy' and believe that heavily referencing is not the same as copying and to that i ask, whats the line? where does it stop being a copy and start being 'heavily inspired'?
anyways, i think the really telling thing is that i never told mwilkberry to delete posts that i thought were copies of my work. they just did that on their own. all i said was "admit youre taking heavy 'inspiration' from me instead of saying its coincidence" thats it really
@nonsensicaIdrea sitting? on what? also, i never said they copied my style? i said they copied my work and composition. youre also still saying what im saying: they should say that theyre taking 'inspiration' from me instead of acting like it was just a coincidence.
@nonsensicaIdrea and also, its very obvious that mwilkberry is just straight up lying. if youre admitting that theyre 'heavily referencing me' than wouldnt that still show that theyve been doing it on purpose and its not a 'coincidence' like theyve said when confronted? how is that *my* fuck up
@nonsensicaIdrea how is it backpedal if this what ive been saying even in the doc. is copying and heavily referencing not the same thing? i can 'heavily reference' the mona lisa and then make one where i 'copy' it and theyd still look the same. why are you mad that im annoyed at this
okay so im done hoping they would stop but its clear that they wont, so heres the tweet. this person has been copying my art since like 2017 and i had confronted them twice abt it already and they had a very 'oh i didnt mean to' non answer but what else am i supposed to say here
"oh but you made a callout post you want them attacked and deplatformed1!!" i want people to know that theyre 'heavily referencing' my work. you dont have to unfollow or block or whatever you think im saying without saying. i just wanted it off my chest.
like on a fundamental level, thats my biggest gripe. just say it. dont say it wasnt on purpose, dont say you never meant to, just say you wanted your art to look like mine. thats it. its annoying to watch this happen over and over. i just want them to leave me alone.
@79jius not quite, im talking abt the whole piece as well as the background and how i specifically stylize her, and not just the pose. theres also many examples of them copying my work so im not sure what you want me to say
@DrawingPeanuts its closer to 4 yrs, i did misremember on that front but yeah its been ?? a weird one being a cookie run fan bc it really does happen a lot and its so weird. like we're all on the same internet, why did you think i wouldnt find out?
i need you guys to understand that ive been sitting on this info for ages bc i was always nervous abt it getting flipped on me bc "oh its just fanart" "oh you already have tons of followers on insta" which arent actually valid defenses but im just too tired bro
*2021 not 2017 sorry, i misremembered but still. please learn how to reference other artists without blatantly ripping off them or stop claiming youre "not that kind of person" bc its obvious that you are
anyways, heres the doc i made in sept w all the examples of them doing this, including the latte cookie drawing i did and only posted on my insta, which theyre blocked from. im praying in 2025, this person leaves me alone
