Hi! So i have a somewhat similar series to yours, is it okay if I keep it? I don’t wanna seem like im copying, i do take a little inspo but I can credit you! :D ive been working on this project for about a year now.. Just asking if its all alright with you! Again, I don’t wanna copy, Youre a big inspo of mine!!

are you asking if it’s okay to take inspiration from my work? i’d be totally flattered! i’m pretty open about my inspirations so i don’t see the problem with being on the receiving end of that^_^ it honestly makes me extremely happy to hear on multiple occasions that people are inspired by my work and just makes me more and more motivated to make CMY2K real and tangible as soon as possible

#not art #it feels like people seem kinda hesitant these days to say they’re inspired by another person’s work as if they’ll get called out for #creative theft which just makes me sad cuz that’s not how art works #CMY2K would not be even Close to what it is were it not for my inspirations in shit like medabots perfect blue lain etc #as well as the many many individual artists over the years whose art styles have influenced mine like jon gray or craig mccracken #let’s all share in the joy of making art together OK^_^#i’m also admittedly kinda curious how you mean it’s similar cuz i feel like i’ve been slightly vague about what CMY2K actually Is on here #i should make more loredump posts on this blog instead of restricting them to my personal….
