Talk:Chris and tracing

Shouldn't this just be a subsection under Chris and art?--Beat 23:01, 27 December 2009 (CET) i take it no one will mind if i remove that merge tag then. --manzanera, for your pleasure. 01:20, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
 * this will turn into a gallery once we figure out more. it's a project Clydec 23:48, 27 December 2009 (CET)
 * My thoughts exactly, Beat. I think this is a bit too ambitious of a project - trying to get people to read the entirety of the Sonichu /Archie comic canon, then go through and compare it to the Sonichu comics. I think we could say that Chris traces, maybe show an obvious example. I think it can pretty much be assumed that any good drawing Chris does is probably a tracing (a friend of mine who casually follows Chris and is a furfag believes that some of his stuff, like the drawings from the Lifeshare book, are traces from Sonic manuals and shit). --Champthom 06:18, 28 December 2009 (CET)
 * well, for now, this is just a project. sticking it in Chris and art would be a bit messy for the reader. more importantly, if this does take off, then it's best that related discussion is neatly kept away from the Chris and art discussion. once it's decided that this project is more or less done, then we should take a look at the result and see if it can be merged. until then i think it's best that this is kept here, for the sake of neatness --cogsdev/vedsgoc 10:12, 28 December 2009 (CET)
 * it's going to be a work in progress as long as chris continues to do Sonichu. It WILL NEVER END also i updated it look now it actually has more examples! Clydec 10:17, 29 December 2009 (CET)
 * We should keep it away from Chris and art for a very good reason; sheer volume. This article got the potential of getting quite huge... Griffintown 02:54, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Title change?
Should this really be called "Chris and tracing"? I understand that Chris is basing his drawings directly off of these drawings, trying his best to imitate them, but he's obviously not literally tracing them. If he were, they wouldn't suck so damn hard. Llort 16:34, 29 December 2009 (CET)
 * Yes because Chris does use that tracing...thingy. This is CHRIS we're talking about. Maybe some of this earlier ones he did, but look at the more recent ones. He's obviously tracing those Clydec 18:05, 29 December 2009 (CET)


 * Chris uses one of these (it was shown in this video where he's drawing Sonichu to prove he's the TRUE and HONEST Christian Weston Chandler), though his was a fancier model with a Pokemon theme. It reflects the image and traces the reflection. --Champthom 22:40, 29 December 2009 (CET)
 * Are you... are you sure Chris traced these?? Because if he actually, you know, traced the outlines, his drawings would look at least more decent... I dunno how much you should fail as an artist to suck that much even at tracing! --GokuGetEm 11:17, 30 December 2009 (CET)
 * He does hold his pencil all cock-eyed, though, so that might explain some of the fail. --DStecks 01:35, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

New category?
Should we add a new image category for Chris's tracings? There are some on this page and some back on Chris and art. SnorlaXBOX 17:18, 29 December 2009 (CET)
 * I'd support this. --GokuGetEm 11:20, 30 December 2009 (CET)

Maybe this should be retitled
Chris fails at tracing so hard, it's ahrd to tell when he's actually basing it off the original or outright tracing. Maybe it should be called Chris and BLATANT STEALING. Clydec 03:41, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
 * We already have an article along the lines of "List of things Chris has ripped off."--Champthom 03:03, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but these are more specific examples from art. Clydec 18:51, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * 'Chris and art theft'? er, wait, no. there's gotta be a better title for this, 'chris and tracing is too narrow.--manzanera, for your pleasure. 01:19, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
