Hehe, that’s easier said than done. As much as I wish I could easily brush off the actions of anyone stealing/claiming a drawing I made as their own, I just can’t.

I can’t truly speak for the extent of every one of them, but artists hold their work very near and dear to their heart. Especially if you make/plan to make a living out of it. And, more times than not, we work hard on our pieces, and like to display them for others to see. So the fact that others would have the lack of consideration enough to take someone’s picture and pass it off as if it was their own creation (or, sometimes even worse, edit it in any fashion) without permission/approval is… fairly appalling to me.

Not only when it happens to me, but other artists. And there’s even that unsettling ‘terror’ that comes to me, personally. The thought that if any other person comes along and sees a thief display your work as if it was their own and they believe them… that kind of stuff hits me hard, makes me feel like the efforts I put toward something were solely for the benefit of someone else (someone who I don’t even know), and.. ugh. It’s just bad feelings haha!

Sorry to go on a tangent there, but I can’t help but to care about that stuff when it happens to me. Yes, it can happen to any of my pieces, no matter the subject, but (assuming this is hinting towards me no longer doing FNAF stuff) it can be helpful to put a lid on things that get most affected. In this case, it was animatronic animals.

(And again, folks, it was getting pretty repetitive for me, it was likely I would have eventually come to a stop of Five Nights art myself.)

Not offensive at all, either! I appreciate he thought/concern in any case. :)
