There's been some lame tracing bullshit once again on FA and lulz, and that crap makes me less and less interested in drawing furry paw-made crap.
On tracing: you can trace as an exercise to begin with, I'll never report you (because I care too less about laws, the whole furry thing and copyright, especially if you don't make money with traced doodles - sorry, I don't call it artwork.) But be honest with yourself: if you traced, just recognize it. A certain furry site takes tracing way way too seriously. C'm'on, it's just some furry doodle!

On referencing: I never trace, I sometimes reference to correct an attitude, anatomy, musculature, positions, proportions... and then the drawing goes on its own way when I finish it. It's perfectly okay where I live, and anyway I'm way too anarchist and lazy to remember the photo I used as a ref, and thus to comply to US laws. C'm'on, it's just some furry doodle, it ain't worth interest except for a niche of fantasy/furry amateurs.

And while I'm at it: except when it's a trade or a gift (drawings made with Van-Weasel's char, or UV, or concepts I don't own like sergals), MY CHARACTERS AND DRAWINGS ON THIS GALLERY (as well as on FA as Clapantgrifon) ARE PUBLIC DOMAIN. When it ain't because I don't own the character or concept, it's clearly specified (like: sergals belong to Trancy Mick). Otherwise, FUCK COPYRIGHT.

Well, that's about it. I don't take my artwork seriously enough to care anyway. Actually, I have less and less respect toward my drawings.
