Hello. :] I just decided to stop by and let you know that something interesting happened between me and this person that I'd just started talking with today.
He wanted to show me some of his work, so he linked me to his MySpace album that were supposedly "his drawings".
I spotted one of yours, and brought it up to him. Of course, him defending the fact that he did the picture and telling me you stole it from him. Here's our AIM convo.
Convo

sakura dances (6:23:16 AM): there's two pictures in your album that look like the same style, and i highly doubt you did most of them. ATTENTION (6:23:22 AM): Direct IM session disconnected. sakura dances (6:23:49 AM): and judging by the other CG pics you have there? sakura dances (6:23:51 AM): that picture is not yours. >> HIM << (6:23:55 AM): lol. :] that's fine, but I can kinda prove it sakura dances (6:24:00 AM): mm. sakura dances (6:24:20 AM): i could ask her myself if you wish. :] >> HIM << (6:24:22 AM): y'know lineart..pencils all that stuff that isnt on puter. sakura dances (6:24:55 AM): what about them? >> HIM << (6:25:37 AM): I still have all that for everything I do. the only one that I didnt do obviously is the picture from Gunz that's the title screen ;p sakura dances (6:25:50 AM): i somehow, do not believe you. sakura dances (6:26:02 AM): [ I linked him to this thread. ] sakura dances (6:26:17 AM): i've read that thread multiple times in the period of a few months. sakura dances (6:26:33 AM): and there is no way you can make me believe that you did that picture. >> HIM << (6:29:14 AM): that's crazy.. o_O so she basically traced it from the lines i guess kudos there~ sakura dances (6:29:27 AM): i highly doubt it, dear. sakura dances (6:29:48 AM): pour some more excuses out of your ass please, i'm finding this entertaining. <3 >> HIM << (6:31:01 AM): lol. I'm not making any, it's not hers. That's all. It's mine. There's no reason to steal art idk why people do. I draw when I have nothing else to do. If you don't want to believe me then don't. :] >> HIM << (6:33:19 AM): I just don't understand what has you in disbelief, tbh people art theft everyday. It's really not that hard, even if you put a watermark on it people find ways to remove :/ sakura dances (6:33:48 AM): yeah, exactly. people art theft every day, and her drawings happen to be gorgeous, so it doesn't surprise me that people would jack them.
and then he ACTUALLY had the nerve to say.
>> HIM << (6:39:59 AM): one other thing :/ I know who drew the taru sketch *sigh*
There was more, but I'm not sure anybody would read it. I just wanted to let you know this.
Your art is gorgeous btw! :]
Good luck with everything!
I guess I'll keep checking up on the thread for replies regarding this asshole.
oh my o_o I dunno why people have to claim other people's stuff as their own. =( Can you PM me their myspace account? I want to see if my drawings are still there.
just wanted to say hi again and hope everything is workin out for ya on mig. server. im still looking forward to the picture i asked ya from. ^_^ talk to ya later
...Wow. Just came upon this thread, and I too am impressed.
I see that Lunaryn already made the obvious request for us (in good detail, too!). There is one tiny detail that was forgotten in it, though: Kamiel's hair is just vaguely longer than on the actual model 8-B, so rather than the model's backknot it's more of an almost-ponytail. Twice the in-game length tops.
If it's any further help in capturing the characters, Kumei was raised in poverty in Bastok while Kamiel was raised by a Royal Knight in San d'Oria, so they're from two very different social classes. -- Pteryx
These pics are awesome. Welcome to Midgard btw. I would like to add a drawn request to the ole board :D. Hume DRK, spiky brown hair. IGN:Restriction.
If possible a battle shot of my DRK pwning face before SE nerfed me. All bloodied up in the face and whatnot. Would be badass and I would be forever greatful for the charity :D . Great addition to the community, rate up.
( MONEYS FOR YOU )
I left you a pm because I am new to the site and I wasn't sure at first how to best contact you Laifierr, but I, like many others I'm sure, would love to have you create a picture for me. I am willing to pay you with whatever I can afford for the picture because it would be for someone that means a lot to me. I would love to give you some more details if you're interested. There should maybe be a pm in your inbox somewhere in case you are. Also, you can email me at ManthraManMrow at hotmail (dot) com . Thanks for reading

Well, I'll be out of game for beginning of November which means I'll be able to draw pictures. :3 unfortunately, I might also not have net access either, which means I can't post my drawings until December-ish. I'll have a big batch to post then though ^^
