RE: WATCH OUT FOR FAKES - 4 WAYS TO TELL

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

I'd say it's not "fake", not illegal, but unless he paid for the use of that image, dangerously close to it, and he probably knows it too that's why he mirrored the image... :)
He changed the feet a bit, he changed the dress, he added a bunch of stuff (although who knows all those other props could be googled photos as well). He went through some hard work tracing the image, and adding the mesh inside the racket, and applying paint, although some of the paint could simply be the photos blurred and smudged... yeah it's hard to say exactly, without a video of the process, but this one's probably not super bad. :)

Sort:  

Yes, I can totally see the changes he has done, but I still think it's too close to the original. I know it's not illegal, but I do think it's a bit like cheating. Taking a stock photo and tracing it is not real art in my opinion ;) And I do agree with you, there are worse... :)
