oh I understand putting pressure where it's needed and know you weren't jumping down anyone's throat, I was more worried about your wording as just saying "traced" on tumblr tends to get a good bit of people to immediately hang on the word and only see it as if that's the only thing it could be,when it could just be a situation of someone referencing a pose in another pic way too heavily and not letting the reference they used be known in a rush like this one seemed to be X3.

Referencing and tracing is different. Reference is a help if you struggle with a pose or material, but you still create something new that people not necessary able to connect. Traces usually have the same lines as the original picture, even the lines the artist used as a sign of style, but the tracer didn’t necessary knew and it’s there. Just because you don’t draw over the lines, copying the same pose, proportions etc, it’s still not original material. People mix the two many times and think the border between the two is very thin. it’s not.
