This is directed to CherriiCloud. I hope you read this and understand what I’m trying to say. I don’t want you to give up on art but I have too many words to say in a 500 character limit so I’ve made this project. Do you understand why so many people are upset with you? Do you understand that seeing you take something that they made, that they cared about, that they put thought and effort and made decisions on what brushes to use, how to shade it, what colours to use, to make an artwork they’re proud of just taken and paraded about without credit and like you made it? You haven’t apologised for hurting others, you’re apologising because you got caught. People will stop if you apologise and then HOLD YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE. Humans don’t like being in the wrong, we don’t like the ugly emotions that come with this, like shame and anger and jealousy, but this isn’t forever and you have the opportunity here to make a better choice. If you apologise and then CHOOSE TO BE BETTER, not just taking others art and leaving credit, but trying to draw yourself, that is the difficult choice, but the one that is morally right. Beginning as an artist is always hard, because it’s frustrating that your art doesn’t look like those you look up to, but everyone starts somewhere and even just sketching once a day you will see improvement so quickly. If you don’t feel confident in your skills you can try using bases, or tracing PRIVATELY or trying to replicate someone’s style PRIVATELY to figure out how they do certain things that you like that you can then transform into your own style - i emphasise privately because tracing and referencing are not wrong to do, but they are a tool to start off with and shouldn’t be published publicly. There are SO many F2U bases you can find and mess around with, and websites that generate nice colour palettes, and YouTube tutorials to help when you start out. People will stop being annoyed when you actually show you’ve changed. If you don’t want to change, that’s on you. I have no further issue with you as you’ve removed the artworks I’ve asked, but do not mistake this as me letting you off the hook. Please consider my words carefully, thank you.
