dA Chumps

Thu Feb 14, 2008, 2:01 AM
KoalaBrownie seriously does not understand people on dA who scan in artwork, make some minor MS Paint-style modification and then post it in their gallery. And then every clueless dA browser thinks they've either made a great drawing, or that they've stolen a drawing. Specifically, one might mention people who post artwork or various Battlemechs from different Battletech products. In some cases, all the person is doing is scanning the artwork and then listing their ingame stats in the description. Well really people, no one on dA gives a SHIT about your original robot's stats/fluff in some dumb game. If you want to talk about the stats, post on one of the forums devoted to some game. People are only looking at the artwork and in general will automatically assume that you've done the artwork, because that's what dA is about, people posting their OWN artwork. Not posting some picture of some japanese mecha where they've used MS Paint to make the gun barrels 3 pixels longer.

A person searches for good original art and instead they're flooded with a bunch of crap they've already seen because they own the books they were printed it. Should KoalaBrownie take a digital picture of the Mona Lisa, draw on a moustache in MS Paint and post it in my dA gallery as some new artwork? Seriously what the hell.

KoalaBrownie also noticed dA recently implemented google ads. Wow, that's uh . . .really pretty low brow I would've thought for dA but whatever.

KoalaBrownie has also decided to speak in the third person in his Journals, just for shits and giggles.

You're such a grumpy old man...
Yeah, some expression I picked up from some guy I used to play some dorky CCG with back in Saskatoon. He was a funny guy though.
I thought I made it clear in the descriptions that these drawings are not from me. If you know BT and know the original artwork and the BT Rules you can see there are sometimes flaws that maybe you give a f*** about, but others like me don't. BT is very visual and for me its important that stats match their art. So these tiny little changes are made to satisfy myself and maybe others think the same way as long as it is clear it's not your own creative work. And btw you must be very specific to find these drawings and so many BT drawings are not shown on dA that it should not be a big pain in the a** for you to to skip them. Nonetheless I will change the descriptions to make it even more clear none of these drawings is from me.
Dshark agrees with Koalabrownie.
