Even if this is a copy (which I don't really think it is) I love it!
Because this is an emotional moment for Ichigo and one of the most touching ones too.You did a great job on the colouring too and the background is very nice too.^-^
To make a long comment shorter with just three words: I love it.^-^

This is a beautiful pic ^__^, but I agree. If you're already near perfect at copying [and yes, I believe this is crosses the line to copying] then try an original pose, and you should get a thousand votes!
I was able to copy objects in my art when I was little very easily, and it's 10x harder to put original ideas on paper. I do not believe it takes talent to copy, especially after a while. Though, you do it wonderfully, I must say. At least put credits into the info section, so no one fights in your comment box. For the most part, I agree with AiiroPearlVoice and kiriyama kazuo.
I take poses and add my own flare to it, we've all referenced, it helps and makes our art a lil better.
I personally, would like to see something different/MORE out of you. Not just someone elses thoughts/ideas and colours re-drawn. seriously.

Wow Skeet...controversy after controversy. I think you should try more original poses and stuff like some of these people mentioned and also give references to the original owners of the characters. ^^'
However, you know I love your work, Joshua. You work hard as if you have to meet a new deadline each day ^^.
Surprise us with your next work.

um, i totally agree. i mean, the artwork is great and all, but almost all of his artwork is copied art, i've never seen any character in an original pose.
as an artist i feel a little disappointed because he has so much talent, but spends it copying.
copying and referencing are two different things. referencing is like, using a pose, but putting two different characters in it, or borrowing someone else's outfit or something. not taking the picture entirely. this is not referencing.
but i will say his art is good, i just hope he does other things w/it. (funny thing is, he hasn't commented on this!! i mean, don't u think he'd be backing himself up?)

I have to ask this: If we honestly do not believe this is copied, then how is it that one can say, "You do not appreciate art"? We believe it to be authentic, and are telling Skeet1115 how much we appreciate his art. Are we wrong in that? Those who believe in the authenticity of Skeet1115's work and like it are actually trying to show their appreciation of what they think is real art. So how does that makes us people who do not appreciate real art, or, as quoted from the comment box of Skeet1115's Mew Lettuce picture, "shallow"? It just does not make sense to me. Ugh, why does their have to be such controversy and arguing over this? It is so sad sometimes, the way people get, over petty issues T_T Oh well, I still believe in your talent, Skeet-san! ^_^
I agree with Aiiro... you can referance, but don't copy. Especially since it's in a stylized form already and not from real photo. It's not artisticaly sound >.> But each to his own...
This is so good, Skeet-san! She looks so sad T^T The shading on the skin, hair, and dress all look really good! It is alright if you reference, I do too! You are just much better than me ^^; xD Geez, I must have favorited your entire portfolio by now! xD! *Votes and Favorites* ^_^

Aiiro-san, if this pisses you off that much,don't comment on it!! Don't vote even! You've commented on this picture like 4 times, and haven't said a good thing about it.
People put a lot of hard work into EVERYTHING they draw, whether it's redone or referenced or made up!
At least give some credit to Skeet-san for doing a great job! If you see something like this then you would think that they can do an original pose, wouldn't you, with all of this practice?!
Well anyway, Skeet-san, sorry about that whole rant but I think this picture is fantastically done.
I know you didn't copy it, you only redid it. And I redo a few things sometimes too.
Anyways, nicely done, the effects are nice ^^
I can. And I know TONS OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT CAN. Buy a How To Draw Manga book and you can learn how. Heck, I CAN TEACH PEOPLE HOW! I'D LOVE TO! But everyone's too dense to see my point so I guess I might as well leave.
I think you did a lovely job, despite of what a lot of people are saying.
I think that, once again, people are being way too sensitive. I mean come on! Give this guy a break! It�s quite obvious that he didn�t copy, trace or steal. He might of referenced but come on, can you honestly say that every pose you�ve drawn came off the top of you head?
No.

Your pictures make me feel sad inside. But I digress. Go ahead and copy pictures. Cause copying is obviously better than regular pictures to everyone else. *sigh* Oh, and go ahead and call me an ass for trying to stand up for my opinion and trying to promote real art that has soul.
Very good. The lineart could be smoother, but that's okay. =]
Good job with the coloring.
An original pose would be nice, just to get some of these weirdose off your back about copying or whatever, which your obviously don't do.
~minto.
You are an amazing artist, and color However, i really WOULD like to see an Oringal pose from you for an anime.
I hope you do an oringal pose soon ;D i'd like to see that, more then seeing reused ones.
Very good coloring and artwork!

Good job! This is a great picture, Ichigo looks so sad...which is good, because a lot of people who try this pose usually make her so she looks like she's giggling. O.o
