CLIP ART in Submissions- DON'T USE IT!!!!

that has been brought to T-Rays attention and he says it will not get in market place.

he says don't use clip art.



I hear:

Use Google image search to reverse image search. You can drag images onto the search page now and see if it is original. Go to GIS and click the camera in the search box.

yeah skrub i use that a lot in tracking down art theft, but it woks a lot on color recognition, even some simple hue shifts can throw off its reverse search

Oh, right. I forgot about slightly modified theft.

Are the special brushes and shapes that come with Photoshop considered clipart?

that come with photoshop? i would say no, but still its a good practice not to make it super obvious you just used a default splater brush or something.

what if you used 2 referece photos to make something completely your own, but just using them and combining them into something completely different.

can ppl look at your completely different thing and easily spot the parts that were from the original?

hmmm, well i have just gottent into 3d modeling and such so i havent even begun to model my helmet, though i will be using 2 reference pictures that arent used in any games ive seen, their just made by someone for art, ill mash them to gether and probably add my own things. so what you ask is something that will be seen when i make the helmet.

this clip art stuff was mostly referancing people using clipart in decals and camo texutures, not as ref for 3dmodels, but still if someone can look at your model and clearly see that its a copy of something then its not a good thing. that being said almost everything is inspired by something else, and nothing is completely original anymore. so best thing to do is post your concept and let us see
