God, I got nostalgic there...
This would be a fun meme if someone pulled it off.
Coulzie, can I ask you a bit of advice? Someone on facebook has uploaded a ton of my art and is pretending they're Sun Rei and have been roleplaying her. Maybe to some people, it may not seem like a big deal, but its my first major art/character theft. Normally its only a picture or a couple that I find somewhere, but this is 4 accounts totaling way over 60 pictures. I've reported them and am sort of waiting to see what happens.
But my question is, how do you deal with it? I feel so hurt someone would steal Sun Rei - she is my special creation and has been one of the only things that has helped me through years of hardships. Now I feel like I don't even want to draw. Like I never want to upload another thing of her, or of any other thing I've drawn. What do I do now?
And yeah it kinda feels like being raped almost... it's really weird. It made me almost wanna take down all my lions stuff that's still up cause I'm like over being associated with it. But you know what man, she is yours. Everyone knows that, and just because someone was stupid and just happened to pic her doesn't mean that all the things she stands for are gone, that person was just not an artist and decided to rip of someone, not really anyone in perticular, it just happened to be you. But you keep Sunny who she is, no matter what others draw or do. So just keep doing what you do and let this little thing pass.
I really appreciate you replying to me - you cheered me up and made me feel a lot better. When it first happened, I just didn't see how I could draw anymore. It really hurt me a lot. But you've given me a nice nudge back to where I was - I'm Sunny after all. How could I still call myself that if I let this get me down?
Thank you dear. It really means a lot to me.
