Accused of stealing... O__O / SOLVED

Journal Entry: Sun Jan 29, 2012, 8:27 AM
everything is okay now, she's accepted her mistake. phew . maybe i over reacted D:that was enough excitement for one day...


Someone thinks that I didn't paint my birthday gift for my bff *PeppermentPanda.

It would be one thing if I really did not paint it, but I actually did so this comment really threw me off:
Sorry but I don't think you drew this :(.

What do you do when someone accuses you of stealing? I mean what do I have to prove that  I didn't steal anything and that I completely painted it myself? I almost feel like stealers have better excuses than people who have never stolen anything in their life. =_="

Anyways don't go and flame that person... I'm going to wait for her response and if she still doesn't buy it then I'll update this journal entry! I just don't want to be reported for something that I didn't do.





On a side note, I apologize for changing my journal skins all the time LOL!
I like *Hinachuu's a lot, so I'll stick with this one for a bit.






~~~~~~~~~~~~EDIT~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's pretty obvious.
Look [link] [link]
They look %100 different than this. This picture that you 'painted' looks edited.

I replied with:
Those deviations you picked from me are sketches and NOT the same technique used for this painting. This painting is well, a painting. I did it digitally over Photoshop CS4 extended. It is not an edited photograph. In fact, if you looked at the rest of my gallery you would find other digital paintings similar to this, such as: [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] . I don't have WIPs for all of them, but for the few that I have recorded they are available on my Facebook page. I'm flattered that my painting is realistic enough for you to make the mistake of thinking that it is edited, but I do hope you realize that it is 100% painted by myself.


like.seriously.

Don't sweat it. The person can't report you or prove you're stealing if they don't have actual proof.

Hehe, I wouldn't worry about it. If you're very good at what you do and young, you're bound to hear this kinda thing a few times. :giggle: I know being accused of things you didn't do is always frustrating, but I say take a step back and view it as a compliment instead. :hug: :heart:
