Can I also join the club?

Altough I don't have weird blue eyes, my eyes are actually a really uncommon shade. I doubt I can find good images of my color. I actually describe it a bit dark goldish with green in them. Sadly, people think I have brown eyes due of the lack of light. So I have to walk to a lamp, hold it near my eyes to show my eye color. Believe me.. I have done this numerous times. Light and Dark things don't even matter to me. But I have an extreme paranoia towards the dark. So everything seems darker to me.

Wish I actually knew how to call my eye color.. Its not that common for what I believe. Never seen someone or heard someone with the eye color I have.

Wait.. does one of my knuffel look like they were made from a copyrighted image? O.O Or are you referring to the magical girl (in which case I meant for her to be a magical girl in general, I didn't base her after an specific one at all.) All of mine are my own designs, the closest I got to using a ref was for the magpie-themed one. *confused*



Some people do not seem to be familiar with the concept of Magical Girls too well, and seem to think your Knuffel was based of a certain character. I even got complains about that (though not sure whether it was actually a complain, I think the user was just concerned, which I appreciate), but do not worry, I can see that it is your own design.
All Magical Girls have kind of the same attributes after all, which you cannot avoid if you want them to be a Magical Girl.
It is like drawing a catgirl and giving her cat paws, ears and a tail. They are just attributes of a certain character type, but don't necessarily refer to one specific character.

About KC I also don't really see where she used any copyrighted character as model...

Ohh, ok I see. Thank you for clarifying Firn. ^_^ I didn't think mine looked enough like any certain characters to get complaints, but I'm glad you can see it's original. ;w; <3

I don't see which of KC's is being reference either. O.o

And what about Pierrot? It is a figure that I love, but I didn't ose create one because I thought it was a precise character. Now I saw that three users did a Pierrot, so it seems that it is allowed... this means that Pierrot isn't a character? I'm absolutely not complaining because I love the Pierrots that I saw and I would love make one myself, one day, so only asking for understand :qw:

You cannot copyright a working profession.
You can copyright a specific design for a character you invented, like a game character, a movie character, a manga character, etc.

So, you can make a Pierrot, but you cannot for example make this Pierrot.

There doesn't seem to be a copyright on that figure. For example, copyright expires when the life of the author + 70 years is over. And I believe that is the case.
Also I see Pierrot myself more like we see historical or mythical creatures. Like Cleopatra and Zeus.

I'm not sure about that engine though, it might be because the base gets a little unbalanced when throwing it in Illustrator x3
But I'll check it, thanks for telling :)

If so many people can join that club it might not be a weird club anymore xD
I don't have trouble with bright light I guess, not more than anyone else. But I have no problem walking in dark rooms either as soon as my eyes are adjusted. xD

I think the Pierrot is the same case as the Plague Doctor, Eylis. :p

What did you use as a reference for the maggie, Raine? Just curious :p

I try to do most from my head, unless I draw something I don't know much about. But like the cow and white tiger I made earlier... well that doesn't need a reference at all xD With the cowgirl I just thought of farmer at first with her clothing, then turned it into a suit =D

Yeah I'm the same way, most times I just do it from my head or memory or something like that. But I couldn't remember what magpies looked like so I had to find one. XD haha
I think if I did a cow I'd end up looking up a ref for the size/shape of their spots in general. I always need a ref for weird things. @_@
