So... from what I understand you're paying for... the right to use the artist's design? So you 'own' that character? Like, $30 for the chance replicate someone's work? It's like a commission you never asked for.

ANOTHER thing is in the 'Rules' it often says 'Feel free to change the design once you've purchased them'. Um. Whut. So... basically... you're... drawing your own character from scratch.

I gotta admit, I think about this WAY too much. I acknowledge that I'm being totally dumb. Actually, my fear isn't a zombie apocalypse (let's face it, scientifically it'll never happen) but of either nuclear fallout or some kind of fast spreading virus.

But let's face it: everyone has a plan, even if they won't admit it. Everyone has at least pondered the subject.

Firstly, my main source of inspiration does genuinely spring from my imagination. I've been drawing since I was about six-years-old and I always have a seed of an idea singing to me from some part of my brain. The need to breathe life into that little idea is a terrible itch, but a gratifying one.

Most of my pictures are inspired by women. Obviously.

I'm not one for feeling sorry for myself and I'm certainly not an attention seeker, but I haven't had a brilliant year. Unfortunately, my little sister unexpectedly passed away in September. I then fell out with my family, suffered from health problems and lost my job. I am thankful for the things I do have, such as a roof over my head and my loving boyfriend, but I definitely needed a way to entertain myself and push through the hard times.

Why do people hate celebrities?

Here's my opinion: Hate is possibly the strongest emotion you can feel towards someone. I actually don't hate anyone. I dislike a lot of people, but no one has ever done anything to warrant my hatred. And I'm talking about people I KNOW. People that I've PHYSICALLY MET AND INTERACTED WITH.

How can you hate someone you've never met, and probably never will meet?

Sure, some celebrities can do things that are a bit dickish - but does that make them a bad person? Doesn't it warrant the hatred of thousands and thousands of people?

When does ‘style’ become an excuse for bad drawing?

(This is referring to drawing style, obviously)

I had never thought about it before until an exchange I had with a deviant (coughtrollcough) brought it to light. A commenter had accused one of my fave artists of being unable to draw anatomy correctly. I said it was her style. The commenter said that she just couldn’t draw.

Now, I still stand by my defence, but when I saw the subject being brought up again elsewhere, it got me thinking.
