IF YOUR ART GETS STOLEN

https://www.tumblr.com/dmca Go there, and do as the instructions say. When my art was stolen, I got the post reported, and it was taken down. Don’t worry, it doesn’t just take down the sources post, but it takes down all the reblogged posts too. Please give this a reblog, many artists out there may not know this is here. And remember, ask permission before sharing, or don’t post it.

HOLY SHIT

OC I'm currently trying to write a short story for (which I'll never finish ofc). Her name is Yuuko. #shoujo #少女漫画 #sketchbook #oc

[iammilkyheaven]

Quick thing I made two days ago and forgot to post here wwwwww I'm sorry I still want to improve my style a lot _(:3_ The OCs name is Yoko and she belongs to wonderful roricomplex 💜💜💜

Male version of the vintage anime style thing! I don’t have any male ocs who fit the 70s aesthetic so I chose Noah because he’s stupid and I wanted to include him. He’s super ooc lol. I think he would have looked best in 80s style w

In English from Yoimaru on Twitter.

As with this post, I want to keep posting these here on Tumblr so people can see them!!!! Because it’s really fucking important, folks! I know it’s a giant fandom and I know it’s messy and it’s difficult to keep track of all of this, but it matters a lot.

Even with credit, you are taking the attention away from the original creators.

Stop reposting art and please respect artists. They deserve credit and notes. Be decent fans!

It’s a lot more complicated than just stealing credit and notes from fanartists.

Japanese fanartists run the risk of getting sued by manga publishers if their fanart (especially nsfw art but it applied to everything) end up on too many websites. The more you spread fanart, the more likely it is that some jerk is going to take it and start making money off of it, and guess who gets sued over that? The artist. We’ve all seen shirts, mugs, mousepads, etc… with Japanese fanart on them (there are people right on Tumblr who make and sell that stuff). Some fanartists are also professional manga artists themselves and they run the risk of losing their jobs if it is discovered that they draw fanart and/or doujinshi.

This is why you need to ask permission. Artists need to know WHERE their art is, and they need to know that it’s possible to get it removed if need be (which means they need contact with those who posted it).

Every time you post fanart without permission, especially on a website like this where it’s impossible to control where it goes, you dramatically increase uncontrollable visibility for the artist. And guess what? Most fanartists don’t even care about visibility or notes or ratings outside of Pixiv and other websites they CHOOSE to post on. A lot of Japanese fanartists employ passwords on their personal sites, and regularly change URLs to minimize the number of Westerners finding them. I have had an artist friend of mine delete her website entirely because she felt too many Western fans had found it, and when she eventually put it up again, she had a password on it that you had to ASK her for (so clearly notoriety was not a concern for her, seeing as maybe 20 of us had access to her site for months).

Sure, some do want popularity and notes and all that jazz, but it’s not everyone by a long shot. It’s unfair to use the “you’re stealing notes” argument because in truth it’s more more complicated than that. Most jerks who repeatedly post without permission are concerned about followers and notes, but that’s really not how it works for a lot of Japanese fanartists. Art theft is RARELY an issue in Japan, even if people might be desperate for attention like a lot of art thieves here are, because they understand that there’s a lot more at stake here than just boosting your internet ego.

Tried to draw some OCs in vintage animu styles. Sry it may be not perfectly accurate and I smeared a lot ww The hardest part was actually the hair (there's no such thing as enough volume in 80s anime hair) but it was super fun! I'll probably do a boys version later this week hoho Btw BH-Tan is actually a collaborative OC of the lovely roricomplex and me 💙

Hi there! ∠( ᐛ 」∠)＿

Since I sometimes want to reblog things, but don’t want to pack this blog full with reblogs, I (finally) created two reblog-blogs:

Akipoyoyo for cute and colorful things and

Lionet Gold which is a bit more mature Both are mainly about art, fashion and animu. Feel free to follow, yo! ✨

[iammilkyheaven]

I'd like to get used to digital art again, so I made this simple drawing of Lala from PriPara. My drawing style isn't even cute enough to represent, how adorable she actually is I'm sorry (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥｀) かしくま！

[iammilkyheaven]

I also made some things in Illustrator today (◍°ω°◍) It's really fun and relaxing to do such simple things sometimes ww

[iammilkyheaven]

After thinking about it for a while now I finally decided to change my way of drawing noses back to the one I had before 2012. It's just that I didn't feel comfortable with my style anymore and I was never really good at coloring those noses traditionally lolol Well I hope you guys like it that way too and if not I'm really sorry (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥｀)

[iammilkyheaven]

I also made these stickers. The characters are from my friends doujinshi “Die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt” (Hope dies last) which is only available in german. You can take a look at it here: http://animexx.onlinewelten.com/doujinshi/zeichner/391586/61264//#

Some ACEOs I made for a friend (ꃋิꎴꃋิ) The second one took forever because I suck. I’m so sorry. I have more than 15 yellow copic shades and all of them are either orangey or greenish. Can someone recommend some vibrant sunny ones? Pls halp  _(:3_

[iammilkyheaven]

Made this for roricomplex’s birthday which is today (go send her b-day wishes!!!). Her OC Apo-Chan ♥︎

Sorry for the bad quality but it’s only a detail bc I don’t want to post the full image here. Also it’s a photo. I’m even too lazy to scan haha _(:3_

[tmgmrk]

The scanned version of a collab I uploaded to my twitter yesterday. :>

I’ve been sick for more than a week now and struggle a lot with sleeping at night, sooo… I felt like coloring something and Aki’s lazy doodle of me was there and… yeah, I couldn’t hold myself back! But I got lazy after finishing the hair… that’s why the coat looks so messy and duh! I can’t remember the last time I used copics… ;;

Anyway! The hair was so much fun! I love coloring hair, eep. o)-< Please, check her out, her art is gorgeous and she only started to upload her art a while ago, so, stay tuned for more!

I love you, Aki! ٩( ´◡` )( ´◡` )۶❤
