Is it finally over for Greg Land?

>I don't see any evidence of actual tracing (or any other form of real plagarism)
how not? get your eyes checked, they even did the work for you and filled in what Land actually drew compared to what he traced. That is theft.

It's not even an outright trace, It's more of a matte painting or a collage.
Not something that would get someone in trouble.

he plagiarized it

Hi Greg

>He actually thinks Greg Land will get fired after getting exposed for tracing for the 2953th time
Bitch he even traced shit for that damn Fortnite tie-in comic and he's still going to get work because he doesn't miss deadlines. That's the reason why many of these tracers are still in the industry.

Tracing over stock photos and images is questionable, but directly ripping off someone else's artwork is going to really anger people.

He's done it before, so has Deodato. This is a problem and not just about bad art. Tracing someone elses art and then putting your signature on it? Fucking trash

Who has the old lady/brick thread images? That was one of my favorite threads on Zig Forums of all time.

Takes a lot of skill to do what he does, the composition, picking the right image to drink from, to know where to cut and where to improvise.
Land doesn't suddenly delete the artwork he used to trace of the universe and gets all the money the original artist got instantly into his pockets lmao.

Nothing wrong in tracing models lay the base of a new work

pft, no

fucking Mitch Gerads has and people can't stop sucking his dick over his comics with King

Only have this one on hand, sorry.

except he's not making a new work. He's just tracing something and calling it his own.

Every single part of it is copied from something else. Nothing is original on that cover.

I know Gerads traces, but has he traced over other peoples work? I thought he mainly took photos and traced them.

also, just to clarify, photo reference is always ok, PCR does it a lot for specific scenes he had trouble picturing and Mignola actually does trace backgrounds sometimes and not even photos he does so I have mixed feelings on Mignola

no

on one had, fuck fornite. I feel sorry for Greg Land having to work on it, on the other, holy shit that is lazy

The Iron Man trace is from Larroca though

he's artswiped a few times

Photoshop automatically snapped it because its identical.

Except he traced the alien and still made it look retarded because he picked a dopey looking head and had to make up the back end of it.Greg Lands are is lifeless and boring because theres only so much shit he can steal from before he starts tracing himself.

imo theres a wide gulf between using references and just creating comics out of jpgs you find on google rearranged in different ways.

>a few times
understatement

a few times that someone bothered to gather evidence for*

that, at least to me, is different enough, like the ears and lips are different, even if it clearly referenced. It is ok to look at something and try to duplicate it, and that's what is done here. as for a business practice, not good to piss off other artists in the business so probably shouldn't be doing it this clear unless you are giving credit, ie an homage

fair

Have you actually read a Land comic before? It's a series of strange stock images.

tracing and changing a few details is still tracing
