Art theft in COD community

This is something that has been on my mind for a long time, but I didn't have the courage to say it out loud. Lovely @namedlunagoddess uploaded tik tok and it motivated me to write this post.

I've been fighting with art theft lately, like many artists in cod community. People don't appriciate our hard work and use us for their popularity. From what I noticed, a lot of them follow my accounts, because when I upload something, they quickly repost it on pinterest or tiktok without credits. Pls understand me, I do it all for free. One render can take me several hours or more. For example, I spent 2 days on the last one, because I didn't like how it was turning out and started from scratch several times - when I share something, I want to be fully satisfied with it. It is EXAUSTING when you need ask for the bare minimum (credits) and even then you're not listened.

You probably noticed that I upload everything in lower and lower resolutions with bigger and bigger watermarks. These are not full pics - I crop them to non-standard resolutions, and 16:9 are only on my Patreon, because I'm sick of art theft. Why? I had a few cases of people selling my art as designs for t-shirts, phone cases, stickers, etc. Previously, I tried to hide watermarks so that they would not be so eye-catching, but people were using it against me. Tik tok and Pinterest are the biggest-*censored* For example, this is what happens when ppl don't give credits and edit out my watermarks

Then they end up on pinterest with thier tik tok name:

Good examples of giving credits (I LOVE ALL OF YOU AND THANK YOU!! ♥)

DO NOT REPOST

Another thing that annoys me is reposts of my art, even here on tumblr. When you do that, you are taking away my credits. I try to make everything available on different platforms, but I guess it still doesn't help. Most people can't read watermarks and will assume that if you upload it - you are the author.

It takes me 6 hours (on average) to make one render, and it takes you 6 seconds to write credits. Please respect my work, because more and more I want to drop everything and stay only on Patreon.

Sometimes I feel that what I do is not appreciated. I don't want much, and yet I feel like everything is being taken away from me. EDIT: I don't mean using my art as an inspiration to fanfics, headcanons, banners etc. If You give me credits - we're good, so no worries! Use them as much as You like ♥♥♥

This out of touch entitled assholes doesn’t realize manga artists have fucking died because they were overworked

And you know what if I have wait a year for new chapter because I know the artist health wise needs to recover so fucking be it. Need artist to push their hitaus everytime some numbnuts complains about waiting.

finally at that age where i'm thinking i should get a tattoo. not bc i feel strongly about it, just seems like a waste not to. i've got so much skin i'm not using

#feels so selfish like. all this skin what am i saving it for?#open to design suggestions! (please make me regret this offer)#maybe some deep sea horrors. a pretty watercolor of a gulper eel #once saw a person on the subway with various Skeleton Tattoos on all their limbs #i respected their commitment to the theme #but more than that i respected how all the skeletons were engaged in Activities #dancing in a ballgown. juggling its own (and two other???) skulls. swordfighting. being a mermaid skeleton #ANYWAY. the only reason i haven't already gotten tattoos is i just couldn't be bothered #i'm old enough to know i don't have any strong-but-potentially-temporary feelings driving me towards it #aesthetically i prefer decorated to non-decorated surfaces. but i'm not artistic or thrilled with commitment #honestly it feels like sheer laziness. indecisiveness--nay. immaturity!--that i HAVEN'T gotten a tattoo yet #letting all this blank canvas go to waste. tut tut i need to grow up and be an adult and get a tattoo sleeve already.#really i've put off my responsibilities long enough #(in fairness i DID at one time have 18 different piercings)#(but i took most of them out bc they interfere with wearing headphones and/or shoving my face in my pillow during Sleep Time)#(i only kept the nape piercing bc oddly enough it ended up being the most convenient. and the least painful to get now i think about it.)#(neck piercing? no problem. normal pair of earrings? Tribulations And Suffering. i don't make the rules i just poke them with a stick.)

Dear Joanne Kathleen Rowling,

#jk rowling #fuck jkr #harry potter #every day it gets harder to separate the art from the artist with harry potter #i would be lying if i said my WIP book series wasn’t heavily inspired by harry potter and helped me feel less alone at a messy time in life #but i would also be lying if i said i do not fucking support jk rowling's bullshit words #bullshit isn’t even the right word #this is why the highest honor for my book series would be it being considered better than harry potter #anything to discredit this bitch #trans rights #trans rights are human rights #respect my trans homies or i'm gonna identify as a fucking problem

Just so you know someone used your art (Keegan, König, Ghost) and erased your @

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMF7Dh79N/

Oh.

I see that some of my cod arts are getting more and more attention which tbh I love.

I am making this in my free time because I'm enjoying this + for You. I'm not gonna complain but one of my pics can took me 3-4 hrs. Sometimes even more.

I love when I see soooooooooo many messages that you like them. It gets me going! But theres this dark side: there are ppl who will edit out my name and act like it's theirs art. And when I see comments of people who look for better quality, there are always anwsers like "I don't know who is the author - I just found it on twitter lol".

I know, this is the Internet - I should expect it and I can't do anything about it (.....or maybe put watermarks in places which will be hard to edit out😈)

All I'm asking is if You want use it, go on- reblog, edit them, post them, make video edits, use as wallpapers, backgrounds etc. just please don't steal someones work. Don't be shy and tag me I rlly don't mind it. Quite the oppisite! I wanna see what You are doing with them :) (I even sometines comment, add to my secret favs and show them to my friends♥).

Respect the artists, we are making this content for You for free ♥

You can tag me on tik tok here if You want

Once again imploring people to stop doing this 😭

grievances include:

-reposting my art 👎

-making the art worse by smearing shit across his face 🙅‍♀️

-claiming it's from tiktok ❌❌❌

-also spelling my goddamn name wrong in your 'credit' 😑

#it's this piece in particular that pinterest has coveted like a kidnapped child for whatever reason #leave my ugly boy alooooone!!!#another day in the 'folks have no respect for artists' mines 😔⛏️
