Hey
It's been almost 2 years since I've been here. I just wanted to apologize to the entire art community for all the incredibly stupid shit I did. It was completely unjustified and to this day I still can't believe there was a point in my life where I was able to think it was ok to plagiarize in any shape or form.
I'm sorry to you guys. I'm sorry to the artists I used. Genuinely. I know no one cares anymore, but here's stuff I've been working on: www.HelixDream.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJY-PQrkcUM I hope to legitimately contribute here once again if I can. **Since I'm not being run off the site like I was expecting, I'll add more content. I'm still freelancing and running a business. I'm a part of 2 different creative agencies that whore me out to mostly high end corporations. Right now I'm working for Level Studios on projects for Samsung, Lenovo, Chase, and Bank of the West. I rebranded my business specifically for the medical industry. So my personal clients are all pharmaceutical companies, doctors, and engineers. I also fly out to medical conventions around the country every few months and set up a booth passing out brochures and cards to promote myself to the other medical companies there. It's actually really starting to take off. I have 6 contracted employees so far and it's only been growing over time. Kinda proud of that so far. Last edited by darkshark; 08-18-2014 at 02:08 PM.. |

Re: Hey
Well, at least it's nice to see an apology from you, considering your previous attitude. Still, I don't know if I could trust you just yet, but if you're legitimatly trying to be legit, I'll give ya a shot.

Re: Hey
I really am sorry. I have no idea what I was thinking. My excuse was I was using it as a marketing tactic, but I think deep down I just liked the attention without having to put much work into it. I've learned a lot since then, and hope to put all of that behind me.

Re: Hey
FFR has always been unreasonably good at that sort of thing, I don't doubt the sleuthing skills of this site for a second, lol. I have no plans to ever even think about doing something like that again. I know I have a long way to go before I earn anyone's trust or respect back, but I'll put in the effort.

Re: Hey
Just curious ds, you say you learned a lot... But from where? What changed this conception you seemed to have pretty deep down your soul that plagiarizing and pretending you made dragon paintings in 3.5 hours was ok? Just curious.

Re: Hey
Nice to see that you learned and changed. Plagiarism usually doesn't end well no matter who does it. Your photography is nice though, so kudos to change

Re: Hey
I remember you with your art and stuff way back when. I wasn't here at all for the whole debacle on stealing, and am a bit surprised you did. I can't remember all the stuff you've made in the past, but with the talent you had, there wasn't a need to do that. I understand the whole "attention grabbing" thing, since I'm always dying to get that, but just be more careful on how you go about getting it. I hope you've improved past the art you posted in the previous thread so you won't have to even fathom the though of plagiarizing again. ;
Welcome back, mate. |
