Art theft has always been bad, but I feel like the way tiktok promotes remixing other people’s content into “your own” has ESPECIALLY proliferated the idea that, if something is on the internet, it’s anyone’s to take.
like. My friend just found these comments on a tiktok someone made of their comic:
This is why I don’t allow reposts. Because even if I give one person permission, even if they credit me and do everything I ask, you never know who is going to steal it from them.
So here’s your reminder:
If you see fanart or a fancomic you like, you ABSOLUTELY MAY NOT share it without checking if it’s ok first.
IF YOU RUN A FAN ACCOUNT. I’M LOOKING AT YOU. YOU’RE NOT HELPING ‘EXPOSE’ ARTISTS BY POSTING STOLEN ART YOU’RE JUST BEING SELFISH AND DISRESPECTFUL. @‘ING ME ON INSTAGRAM ISN’T GOING TO FIX THE FACT THAT YOU DIDN’T ASK PERMISSION
THIS GOES FOR TRANSLATIONS. I UNDERSTAND WANTING TO MAKE A COMIC MORE ACCESSIBLE TO YOUR LANGUAGE, BUT IT’S STILL A CONCERN THAT IT WILL GET STOLEN FROM YOU (and I KNOW some people don’t ACTUALLY care about it being more accessible, because I’ve asked people to reblog my original post with a translated transcription and they threw a fit because they obviously just wanted the views for their own page)
Comic dubbers are also not exempt from needing to ask for permission. I know there’s a lot of editing and you are technically producing new content, but jfc you still need to ASK TO USE SOMEONE’S ART. ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE MONETIZING YOUR PAGE.
I also DO NOT CARE if your pinterest page is “just for your personal reference” STOP UPLOADING ARTWORK AS ORIGINAL POSTS. IF YOU MUST PIN ART, JUST POST THE LINK!!!! I die a little inside every time someone says they saw one of my comics on pinterest and had a hard time finding my actual post.
Why is it important that artists stay credited? Well, I for one, am about to start my junior year of my BFA, and I won’t be able to work my part-time job anymore. My art is going to be only source of income. Every time someone reposts my art without credit, that’s more people that won’t find the link to my store. That’s potential job recruiters that won’t find my portfolio. That’s work that I’ve done that someone else is getting activity for, potentially even making money off of.
Please, PLEASE be aware of art theft. Point it out when you see it. Please understand most artists see it as offensive and disrespectful and are not flattered by it.
So, I saw a post some weeks ago where someone pointed out that Hunter teleports a lot. He certainly does, and I’ve been thinking about that.
In Separate Tides, he doesn’t teleport during the short fight he has with Eda and Luz, but he mostly just dodges their attacks. When Luz tries to hit him with fire spells, he dodges first, and only strikes back after that. And then, when they’re both on the ground, he uses his staff to move the sand beneath them to hold them above the Boiling Sea.
In Hunting Palismen, when he’s fighting Kikimora, he’s mostly teleporting around her and only actually hits her about four times. She hits/tries to hit him more times than he hits her.

When your bored so you draw on the school chromebook
remember when in dc #571 bruce got dosed with fear gas and jason asked him later how he coped with it and bruce was like “oh easy i just imagined an even more terrifying scenario, my actual worst fear and snapped out of it” so jay’s like “oh what’s your worst fear” and bruce says maybe he will tell him some other time. and the fear was literally jason dying. the accidental foreshadowing gets me crying weeping wailing on the floor every time.
Any digital art I do is done by finger on my phone / twt:Nix_nada /ig: _nix_nada
