THIS BLOG IS A PLACE FOR MEDUSA POSITIVITY.

Another Dnd party art, this time from December 2021. I made it to commemorate the finale of a heavily homebrewed Curse of Strahd game. It was the first campaign I've ever finished and we had a successful sequel after.

Your disability/illness/disorder is NOT “an excuse”, it’s a reality. Having limitations does not make you lazy. You should never feel guilty because you have limitations.

Dang I was on a roll posting a bunch of art but then depression got me again :/

That feeling when The Barbie Movie wrote a better matriarchy than Gary Gygax  ever did.

|| Important Announcement Regarding Fanart ||

     It is becoming even more apparent that people aren’t respecting fanartists and their works. The best rule of thumb is If you didn’t draw it, or receive artist permission to repost it for them,  DON’T DO IT. You shouldn’t like/reblog unsourced art as it only encourages blogs to continue doing so and their actions going unchanged. Tags like;

#Credits to the artist

#Credits to the owner

#Not my art

#facebook

#weheartit

#pinterest

#google

#deviantart ( as in mentioning you found it there without linking the appropriate member you found from.)

[Etc.]

These are not proper credits. Also, even if you ARE crediting the artist make sure it hasn’t been posted numerous times or you aren’t reposting their art when they have it already posted on their personal tumblr. The point of them posting it on tumblr is to share it with us and it isn’t hard to hit that reblog button. It shows the artist that their work was enjoyed and it serves further to encourage them to continue with the hard work.

“If they didn’t want it on the internet they shouldn’t have posted it.”

I see this statement a lot, obviously they wanted to share their work and share their passion with everyone but is it really so hard to go to their page and like/share it from there? If there is a picture that you are uncertain of it’s source and you would like to see it’s source or share it with someone give saucenao.com a try. Sometimes careless fans constantly reposting art gets the artist in trouble become of distribution and laws. Example; A fellow artist of mine mentioned about a law changes in their home country made them take their art down simple for if the government saw/deemed it inappropriate, even if someone else was reposting it. They would be fined heavily and possible even go to prison. They ended up taking down all of their “shipped” art but still worries that their art could be circulating. Also there are other law and regulations we aren’t aware of and when more posting occurs outside of the artist knowledge can cause them to remove the art all together. 

“I don’t speak ” —- “ so I couldn’t ask them anyway.”

There are a few really good guides about asking members on pixiv if you can reblog or use their art for blog things. ( Example right here—- >> [x] ] They even pre set some phrases for you to copy and paste and also published what some replies would translate to. Also there is a good chance that a few of them speak a little english. If the artist says no, THEN DON’T DO IT.  I shouldn’t have to say that. I don’t care if everyone and their dying grandma does it. So quick review;

If you didn’t draw it, don’t post it without permission

You see something else someone posted without credit, don’t like it or reblog it. 

External outside multimedia (weheartit, pinterest, facebook, etc.) are not sources.

I am tired of seeing art that I like but I have seen many times being reposted and have 20 separate posts being reblogged over again. I also hate not liking a picture due to improper handling. It is sad, rude, and really disheartening to other artists who want to share their works and I hate it most when the artist has to take their work down.
