Win win win one hundred times win. \o/Thank you for accusing me of stealing someone else artwork and re-colouring it and posting it here as my own, the step-by-step breakdown I posted a link to, along with the AI file sat on my computer are irrelevances to this and I deserve to be banned instantly. Along with this I should instantly apologise to yourself and every other artist personally for using artwork as a reference material to improve my skills with a particular program so I can therefore improve my own artwork.
I hope that I have not disturbed you up on your mighty pedestool so that you fall from your high horse and out of grace. We at Define Cynical are hardly worthy to even clean the bootstraps of your shoes and I would like to take a moment to also apologise on their behalf for us not all posting artwork up to your standards within these threads, we should not try to improve ourselves, but allow you, the one true artist to rule us all.
One Artist to rule them all, One Artist to find them,: One Artist to bring them all and in the darkness blind them.
Can I join in?

You were accusing me of reposting someone's artwork as my own, which is the same as accusing someone of stealing, and as I hope my previous post made clear I take offence at such an accusation. I am also, to be honest getting annoyed at your attitude towards other people who post within this forum, maybe learn how to give critique rather then panning people off the bat, they actually improve, or so I hear but I'm not sure I can trust that Doog fellow.Naw it is just that I did too once drew a moomba though I screwed up the legs. I didn't say anything about banning, I just know the picture.
So in summary, there's cheesecake in the wine cellar and the rats are out to play, just don't let the roof fall on the sky!

I never said you stole it. You just partially copied a picture of one, look!
It is a Moomba, pretty much the only official artwork out there and pretty much the only reference too. I KNOW you drew that coloring, but it was based off a moomba which most likely came from this


Then make sure you state things clearly, rather then jumping in with a 'witty' one liner? It doesn't take much to say "Did you use this image as a reference?" instead of, "You copied that and posted it here with some slight colour alterations.".Well people with aspergers are notorious for not knowing how their words affect the listener.

Really, how can anyone misunderstand that? By copied I mean it is not an original other than being completely traced and colored by you!
You see the big difference that makes, one is an accusation, the other is a question. We'll start from there and work up on your learnings ^_^

TO INFECT THE AFFINE TRANSFORMATIONWe need to introduce more modified quotes relating to artists into this thread, I DEMAND OF IT. Either that or we dance to a boogie?

TO DENOUNCE THE EVILS OF MSPAINT
TO EXTEND OUR REACH TO OUR NEIGHBOR'S TAINT
...oh come on, this is me we're talking about, what else would I rhyme with "paint"?
There's a massive difference between copying and using as artistic reference. I mean, if there wasn't then what I'm doing is copying Ozy and Millie, Fauxpas, and Mynarski Forest, which of course, is not true.
I've used hundreds of pictures, "copied" them, and drawn them myself before learning the certain style, pose, posture, facial expression myself.
Without "copying" my cartoon would just be stick men with word balloons.
