As I have said, the issue is not the pose (you are allowed to draw characters standing with a hand on the hip) but the fact it was traced or copied so closely that things line up perfectly.

You can draw a character standing with a hand on their hip, you can’t trace that pose from canon, you can’t copy that pose so closely that things line up exactly. We find it hard to believe that Jewel wasn’t copied or traced because of how the face of her and Faybelle line up exactly. This isn’t a case of “I imagined this pose and it happens to be a hand on a hip which happens to look like Faybelle”. There is a reason you aren’t in trouble for “copying” the Briar Beauty art you sent in rebuttal, because it is a different looking hand on hip pose and clearly wasn’t the source of copying.

I’ve said this three times now and I’m really not sure what isn’t clear. Draw what you like, just do not recylce, trace, frankendoll, or reference so heavily that features line up exactly with canon art pieces. You can draw hands on hips without it looking like Faybelle. Any further art posted that haa been traced or obviously copied will be a first warning from the admin team.

If you suspect other art has been traced or copied so closely it can be overlaid with canon art and match exactly, then please tell us so we can take it down.
