  • HELLO! In this video I explain how I almost got sued for making a virtual youtuber 3d vtuber model for my vtubing youtube channel.
    It was made in Blender and Unity and it is not a VRoid model.
    It was made for Free by myself from scratch using Blender and Unity.
    My previous virtual avatar was deemed to be traced and stolen and so I almost got sued and in this video I explain how I almost got sued and show my new tiny cute and smol virtual youtuber avatar for vtubers in 3D.
    I also do a comparison of heights between my new vtuber 3d model and the popular vtuber gawr gura from hololive en WOW!!
    i am very smol
    if u also wanna be smol like me ...

    I'm incredibly sad for you that an artist whose style you liked so much as to choose it as a focal point for imitation and learning rejected you like that. Don't let them tear you down! Your work is adorable and you are clearly improving rapidly. I'm glad I subscribed a while back and I am excited to see where you go in the future :)

      i thought this at first, but then i saw the other 3d modeler's work. it really looks like an exact copy of the "inspiration" artist's work, not just similar, so selling stuff is kinda ehh.
      it's not fun for an artist to see another person making profit off of something with an art style that is clearly heavily referenced from and is nearly identical to what they're selling. they should've asked for permission first tbh.
      i'm glad that blep is transitioning to their own art style, though.

      Personally as an incognito artist… it is very grating when people copy my style. I can say nothing about it but every time i see something on my timeline and do a double take bc it has all my signature traits it makes me feel so worn out… I took time to develop my style, to be distinct in a competitive market. Is it not understandable why some see it as disrespectful? It’s fine to be inspired by parts or certain elements but THE WHOLE THING? Disrespectful.

    I know the feel when someone you look up to goes completely ballistic. Tried to buy some art from someone I won't name (pre-made shop items btw), 6 months passed without anything being shipped. I emailed them after 1 and 3 months, no response. After 6 months I sent them a tweet about it, got a super hostile "I already answered you". That email answer was timestamped after their own tweet saying they answered...
    Love the art but I won't buy from them anymore.

  • @shadowdemonaer
    @shadowdemonaer Před rokem +240

    I absolutely love your work. I wouldn't look up to that other person anymore either. I guess that goes to show that when I finally get into 3d modeling like i mean to do, if I want to try to learn from others, I'll ask for permission to try and learn from artists' works before I dive in. One of my friends is looking to learn about making models like these and I showed her your videos. In particular, she seems most interested in yours the most so far out of the things i have shown for tutorials and options and such. However, we haven't actually started anything, and we don't know what we're doing. I'll let her know that if she tries to learn from what she saw you do, she'll ask first so that we won't have any mishaps. Of course, neither you nor us wants any drama, so I;m sure there wouldn't be anything. Plus, my friend has an art style already, but we both just enjoy kawaii things.

    Poor Blep :( ... I understand being an artist and finding stuff online that was stolen from you. It really sucks, but when someone comes out and says "No, I didn't steal it" and then shows you proof that they didn't, then you have to change how you have that discussion. The BEST way you learn is by "copying" something that has already been done. All you did was use their art as a reference. Almost every successful artist uses references all the time. They should not get mad at you for that, they should be flattered that they were the one you looked to for guidance. I wish you the best on your artist journey! Don't give up, you are very talented and will go on to do great things!

So rip and for if you are wondering No I didn't steal or trace their art I just used a smaller color Patel and the hair was from k-pop idol but they kept saying I'm thief so I guess I am xD but I'm happy for you!!!

      If you're worried about doing something wrong when drawing and taking inspiration - just read about copyright laws and how it all works. Color pallettes can be a tricky thing, so depending on your situation exactly it could've been copyright infringement!
      And at the end of the day don't worry about harrassment, even though it can make you anxious. Some people will find ways to be annoyed at things even for seemingly no reason, so just keep ur head high and make sure you're not doing anything wrong on your end ^w^

    • @dra6o0n
      @dra6o0n Před rokem +4

      Chances are, if you've done your researching and can follow their trend of art style... They copied it from someone else.
      And, colors and styles alone technically can't be infringed as a copyright... First, the rights holder has to REGISTER that with a association or organization that manages copyrights first. If they aren't a registered copyright holder, their accusation is moot, and you can sue them for libel if they caused you financial or mental harm.
      Remember the whole 'Scrolls' spat between Mojang and Bethesda because the latter has trademark for 'Elder Scrolls' and saw them as a threat.
      America is just very dumb and brainwashed these days unfortunately, the legal system is no better, there's plenty of videos or documentary covering this.

    There's so many ways the edges can flow when you get an efficient topology, but trying to claim one of the more optimized forms is a bit of a stretch. If you're willing to show your work that it's inspired rather than a vertex for vertex direct dupe, then they should give you somewhat of a break.
    Also the whole 3D graphics field in general owes a lot to the innovators that for whatever reason didn't patent lock algorithms early on. If they didn't make their work open or public domain, we wouldn't have progressed anywhere near to the point where we are now. (Most of those names are on the algorithms used in topology work and texturing, and they're still working for big names in the field. For instance all poly smoothing has Catmull and Clark's name on it, and they're working for Pixar. And guys like Penrose and Musgrave are still doing their things out there too, etc. The fact that a lot of big render engines got opened up too is just icing on the cake.)

    Ouch! Sorry to hear that. hope the situation get fix soon.
    i can really relate to that something similar happen [not to the point to almost get sue] to me too, but enough to give me ptsd. I was a new 3D animation student back then. I was more or less 2nd week in my 1st 3D class, my lecture gave us a homework of making a sand pit playground and fill stuff of according what we learn that week and hand it in for the 3rd week class. i was so exited and even go above and beyond to learn how to make a low poly chibi model and wing-it with everything I know working day and night withing the 5 day in between to make a Kanna playing in a sand pit. noted that I just only learn how to do some simple stuff like special dup, excrude and cut tool. I really somewhat modeling it blind with only one single pic for reference and is not even those kind of T pose picture. The day before handing it through lecture dropbox, is not perfect, but I was super proud and hope I get praise or something.
    While my friend get praise of making a pretty nice gundam model in there. but I got the opposite instead. first of all, the class have too many student, so it broke down into 2 group, group one morning class another afternoon, I was in the afternoon. Before I go to my class I receive a message from another friend of mine from morning class that our lecture accuse me of model stealing from what ever site I got it, and he was being very sure about it too, to the point he announce to everyone in the morning class without confronting me about it. then in the afternoon class I was furious but I waited him until he finish shouting at me and I just pull out my phone and open past record of my FB stream and showed him I how i made this thing live [yea... i use to at FB in the past. but I damn, glad I did]. it was a pretty suck moment of my life too he just gone 'ow is that so' and proceed to continue the class as if nothing happen. I also confirm with my morning class friend that he never recorrect any of the accusation that I did not steal any thing to them too. so more or less I've low key become got a art stealer impression for the morning class which I got so frustrated to even explain to them, because why should I? the matter is buried to some if they know me they know I dint do it. but for those that dint interact with me before at all I always felt like they have the impression of me being an art thieves.
    I know, someone might say I should be happy since I was so good that I was accuse of stealing people stuff. but here is the thing, is not a very well made model, yes I do pour my heart and soul to make that but is not even a good model to begin with. worst is someone make an even more amazing stuff got praise and mine got accuse. speak of how that lecture see me as and me being a shitty thief and steal shitty art. I was expect to have a competition with my friend that made the Gundam, instead of a showdown I was shown out. and yes 2 years have past, im still kinda salty about that.
    more or less my lesson learn is record even some part of your process is a good thing since that somehow manage to save me. i cant imagine what would happen if i don't have the stream record i would not have been coherent enough to clarify myself since the accusation itself gave a quit a shock and emotional damage at that moment.
    Hope you get things clear out soon and get a good ending for this.

"art style theft" is absolutely not a thing, and "tracing" a specific part of a model isnt even a bad thing. art theft is a whole different thing than "style theft." no two styles are the same, even if they look similar. referencing is a great point for artists to start from and as they say, imitation is the highest form of flattery. honestly i am so glad that nothing ended up going too downhill, and im so happy that youre starting to find your own style. i havent been watching for long but you have helped me so much in my vtubing journey and i hope you achieve your vtubing dreams. :) genuinely so sorry this happened to you and i hope both you and the artist are doing better now.

    I must admit, many people out there are indeed copying art styles and claiming it’s just “learning”. Yet when somebody isn’t copying, and are actually legitimately wanting to learn how someone’s art is made, things like that can get confused easily with the people who… aren’t as honest about their theft. It saddens me to know there are many artists whose work is being stolen, while they have no power to stop it, whilst other, more legitimate artists, are constantly being pushed around by people who claim they are committing some form of art theft when they are not. Why is all of this so unfair….???

I'm happy that you didn't end up getting sued tho lmao

  • @NirvEnd

    To my understanding it seems super common in artist circles that popular artist that many people tend to look up to. Seem to be super hard about being 'copied' and accusing anyone who aspires to their style or reference as lesser somehow. So I'm glad to hear someone who made such a cute chibi and cute voiced managed to get through something that is truly stressful.

    Stood in your shoes when it came to UV Map textures, And got harassed and stalked over it, Pretty much gave up my UV Map texturing career because of it cuz the stalking and harassing kept going for 4 years, Over the years, the user that kept accusing me Got banned out of 5 Main discord servers from the community and 3 warnings on 3 other ones, and have stolen people's textures themselves as well but tries to cover it up by acting nice and making Minor changes to the design and acting all nice like "It's just a mistake didn't steal it I'll change it" Yet came for my head and obsessed over everything I made :| (I used to respect them in the beginning as well) So know exactly how you feel.

    I used to be an animator and 3D modeler (maybe someday I'll go back) and I've been lightly following the drama caused by newbies throwing tantrums over the prices of good models. It's hilarious to me. I'm glad you shared this storybecause there are bullies like that out there who will try to scare new modelers and try to gatekeep people from starting or learning, but you also showed that you can't just throw together a workign model in a night. Even when I was good at modeling (I'm really rusty... about a decade of rust here) it would take a day or more just to refine a character design enough to start modeling. Add in the model, UV unwrapping, materials, hair and cloth simulations, rigging, and the code needed to make effects or movements work and it could take a month or two of dedicated work to finish a character model. Not to mention importing that model into whatever virtual studio you intend to use it in for tubing or vchatting to build animations and work out the kinks. If I sharpened my chops back up to make models again full time, there is no way I'd sell one for less than $2500 and that would be for bare-bones work. If I were doing it as a side hustle, I'd double my prices just to slow down requests.
    I'm sorry to hear your troubles. The reality is that artists frequently have work stolen. There was someone in northern China stealing my work and selling prints. Fortunately for me, he was in a really restricted market. But some artists will just assume that simmilar work was stolen or copied. In the end, you bought that model and you can legaly do with it what you want, even if it is to tear it apart and learn how to make one like it. I love your little chibi model, and I wish you success!

    that’s the problem though is alot of 3d model’s will look similar since most creator’s use the same few website’s and thing’s to create them and also anything anime will always look somewhat similar it’s just like how copyright claim’s go way too far to the point where you can’t enjoy any game on youtube these day’s cause it’s either silence for half of the game’s do to copyright music or people just having to ramble on about stuff and even when the music is copyright free cause youtube just love’s abusing that excuse and the whole thing about people getting there channels cancelled or banned or deleted or whatever because of other peoples actions one day all of this thing’s will go too far and come to a head

    I can see the inspiration, but taking a model to see how its made can help in learning how to build in 3D. I watch and learn from other artists how they draw, sculpt, rig, outline, color, and it helps me personal to improve and get ideas how I can add to what I already know.
