When doing paid commissions, is it acceptable to use drawings of other artists inside your work?https://x.com/Scennique25/status/2001268642693197867/
>>7882013How the fuck did you find this?
>>7882013No.
>>7882020I have autism.
>>7882013No.If the artist whose work you're using gives permission, then I suppose, sure?... Though the client may not be too thrilled about it.Are you sure that the clouds are actually part of the commission? They might have just been there for the post, and the actual asset may just have nothing in the windows to allow the streamer to put whatever they want in there.I'd check myself, but I couldn't really care beyond making this post.
I don't know about stealing art like this but being indonesian is unacceptable

>>7882013Generally; no. If you had a painting on a wall, and it was a painting from an old master, that sort of thing is more acceptable, but it's best if you redraw it yourself. I assume the painting on the wall in your image is also pulled from somewhere and dumped into the image rather than redrawn.Your example is just peak laziness; they could have taken a photo and run it through some filters to get a similar result and no one would know, but they couldn't even be bothered to do that.
Just prompt it lil bro, no need to steal. Generic clouds ain't nobody's invention
>>7882029It's from Makoto Shinkai's The Place Promised in Our Early Days (2004) at around 15:36
>>7882013Big fat no
>>7882013Just freaking use AIslop for background if you cant draw background. Stooping down to plagiarism is not worth it
>>7882036>>7882013Holy autism, how the fuck do you recall this sort of information? This is the kind of nightmare fuel that terrifies artists who have made even slightly unethical choices in their works.
>>7882036Why even steal those clouds? They're fairly simple to copy, if you want clouds that look just like that. It's not like you'd need a fancy brush or anything, in fact, it looks like it's entirely hard round brushes with some playing around of the opacity.>>7882029>I assume the painting on the wall in your image is also pulled from somewhere and dumped into the image rather than redrawn.Looks like it's also an anime? You can see it's a character of sorts being sucked into a whole/drain with some water - and then maybe another screenshot above that?...Actually, is it possible that the client asked for these? Maybe they're a big fan of whatever is possibly being referenced here?... Though I doubt this is the case, since the references are far too obscure for anyone other than the turbo autists on here to possibly notice.
>>7882043I have a slight autism, and I like to watch art. I download, catalogue and tag every piece of art I see, and I have a photographic memory, so I remember every single one of those.
>>7882043Stealing an entire BG drawn by someone else (not copying not 'taking inspiration' just straight up grabbing their art and putting it in yours with some filters) is a little more than just slightly unethical
>>7882044>Why even steal those clouds? They're fairly simple to copy, if you want clouds that look just like that.This reminds me of that Faye Dalton art plagiarism scandal from a while back. She stole from four or five different artists for one MTG card. I scratched my head wondering how this "Frankenstein's monster" approach wasn't more effort than just drawing it. Of course, that's assuming she can actually draw and didn't fake her way into a career.
>>7882013in an ideal world, copyright does not exist in any form and anything you find online or rip from a DVD, CD, or BluRay is free to use with no strings attached.that being said, a paid commission is a contract with the client. they are hiring (you) to do the work, and taking existing artwork is essentially cheating them out of the promise that you were doing work.how would you feel if you commissioned a contractor to install new windows in your house, but they had their potentially unqualified cousin do the work instead? you paid them a premium for their expertise, not just the final product...
