Lol don't hate me for this but honestly, to try to learn a style, you kinda need to copy XD Like, you can add some of your own into it, but like if you were trying to learn something new like PPG you need a reference because you dont really know how to draw it... so you copy. Eventually you can finally get the basics down and start creating your own sort of thing though. I think this happens a lot in DC though, because (to famous artists mostly) people just want to be draw in their style, because they really like it. They dont nescessarily know the other artist is angry at them for copying. They just use their art as a reference. Like... I actually use to do that.. lol. Like for those one direction pictures, I based them off this girls art But I didn't feel original so thats why I dont really draw that style anymore. Omg this has reached the "shut up now" limit lol. But anyways, the point is dont "hate the copiers to death and if I ever meet them im going to strangle them." Just remember that are actually that good of an artist that people love your art so much, they really want to draw like you. You totally have the right to be mad, but just relax a bit. OK SORRY TOO LONG I WENT OVER BOARD LOL I JUST WANTED TO SHARE MY THOUGHTS OKAY. xD
