** The artist, =Tamachan87 had finally apologized to her devwatchers and took down all her traced art. I really hope no one would continue this issue anymore or prolong the hatred. She's starting anew and let's give her the chance to.
But well, it's all up to you guys. I'm out of here.

All I wanted to say now is,
Thank you to everyone who helped me out and yet being rational about this.
And sorry for the frequent journal updates. I'm sure it annoys some of you at some point.
I'm disappointed with the mods.
Apparently the mods took down the deviations shortly after she deleted those pictures as she said she received notes regarding those 5 deviations which were traced.

I'm sorry this entire issue have turned out so huge and there's so many hatred around now. I'm really sorry for getting people involved and put some of them in tough positions. Originally, I just wanted her to remove the 3 pictures she traced from my favourite artist but as more evidences pop out, it's hard to control this entire issue anymore. I can't find the time to waste on the issue anymore as there's nothing I can do now. I really hope this issue can be dwelt quickly and efficiently. As for now, I'll just wait and see.

** =Tamachan87 had removed 3 of the first pictures that I've pointed to out that was obvious tracing. And she's been acting immature by throwing profanities at people who commented in this journal.

** I've received back 5 notes regarding the art tracing matter. The mods obviously couldn't see them eye to eye and decided to just leave the matter to be. Apparently my reports are invalid. I need a reason not an auto-reply back message.

I mean... ways of doing linearts, clothes, colouring and whatever.... and it's clearly been copied by [link] from [link]

=Tamachan87 had replied me in this journal saying that she found it easier to trace and copy because she's lazy like that.

I am lost for words.

Hello guys.

I've just found a deviant artist here who traced art from a japanese artist, Kantoku who I adore alot... and I'm in quite a dilemma. I know stealing picture and posting them as your own submission is a crime and can be banned permanently from DA, but is tracing just as heavy? I'm not too sure about that, that's why I'm confronting you guys first before I do anything about it.

I've come to believe that as more evidences are popping up, the entire gallery of hers are traced from other artist's art and she was not hesitant to claim them as her own.

Something interesting that'll help you understand tracing better (thanks to *Muarw) : [link]

I don't know if the rest of the gallery from this deviant, =Tamachan87 are traced or drawn by herself, but these 3 pictures are too closed to be called referencing. It's t-r-a-c-i-n-g.

Please do not start any dispute and throw any hateful comments at her. I'd really like to solve this rationally. I hate drama really, and never bothered to be involved in any of them though it seems like it's really hard to run away from them. Drama that is. What do you guys think about this?
