Internet friends and fellow artist. I’m gonna do a little ranting.

It seems i’ve been called a hack on another website for my Ironman sketch’s because the first looks too much like Shirow’s character from appleseed and the second looks too much like the robots from I robot. It didn’t matter that when i posted the pieces that i said they were inspired by those works and it was my intention to make them look like them. Yet certain section of the internet morons insist on saying i’m not being original i’m just taking someone else’s drawings. Even I say it is my intention to make it look like them these intellectually challanged misfits insist on continueing to mis the point. They even envoke LIefeld’s drawings as excuses for being a hack.

I find it frustrating that they can’t read that i say I was working off of established ideas . They insist change this change that. Most of them who offer this advice their own artwork looks like they have never even attempted to learn how to do it correctly nor wish to invest the time. Hell I even posted The Ironman I did last year that Matt Carpenter colored as proof that hey i could do an original design if that was my intention. Still they refused to except what i say and continue seeing what they only want to see. I can imagine how artist like Byrne must feel when he gets this crap done to him a hundred times more then i do.
