>>4769922This is overlaid on the reference at half opacity. If this isn’t traced the artist is a fucking retard for wasting all that time not tracing it. Humans are physically incapable of just freehand throwing out 1:1 drawings from references, either
A:they took the logical route and traced the outline or
B:they’re wasting a lot of pointless time measuring up and using grids for the sake of saying they did it themselves
You can say crab or cope or whatever bullshit but 10/10 times I’d rather see a drawing than a recreation, but go off. Feel free to waste years never actually learning to draw and flexing for people who don’t know better
