Some designs I made for a friend's AU

I got mildly irritated by a certain interaction at Twitter this morning, and would like to just post a rant here. 

Admittedly I have not looked too thoroughly into Japan’s Copyrights Act (I’m not in my tip-top condition and I dread to do work-related things at home), but despite me rummaging through Google to see if anyone explained why Pixiv doesn’t allow art to be reproduced without permission, I came out with little to none. Sure, there are a lot of masterposts on how-tos and explaining that it’s in Pixiv’s terms of service, but that doesn’t explain why that is needed.

I’ll try to make it simple: Japan’s copyrights laws are ass-weird.

It has been 10 years (holy shit) since I made this post, and I think it still pretty much holds up even though the source links are broken.

And now you know why JP artists are so anti-AI in general - the same fundamental concepts apply.

Welcome back ^_^

Thanks for your message!

It might take me a while to get back into the swing of things, haha.

Hiatus

I’ve been busy moving to another country for my new job, so I won’t be posting until I save up enough to get my own laptop.

See ya all until then!

Update

So in the span of three years, I've moved three times, switched to another job because the previous company went down the shitter, gotten my permanent residency, and just recently received my own fancy, new laptop.

Cool, cool, cool.

It's gonna be a while to warm up to drawing again 👍
