RadiumRC

Very late to this

But for those who viewed Radiums tracing as a cheap and contrived attempt to appear as a creative and original author are right. While I've not traced, I've been previously criticized for my tracks being not so original as they are heavily derivative. From that, I've tried to avoid being so inspired by trackmakers to end up strikingly mirroring their style; and I'd hope others would agree. Most authors would also agree that there is more joy in coming up with your own ideas while using references as a foundation to then build upon those original ideas. That is why people bother spending several if not hundreds of hours drawing from scratch. Tracing, too, brings joy to the person, which in my view is but a false sense of it. Their joy is experienced by the removal of a crucial element of track making: dodging the difficult process of using your own creative flair to make something others would applaud and appreciate. Or it could also, as Fluffysmack pointed out, bring joy in receiving clout and banners.

Tracing is cheap and an insult to authors who try and make something from their own individual and original thought - more so when they get rewarded for it. Its a mistake Radium will regret but should accept the criticism that comes with it and learn from it.

 

That doesnt look traced tho thats pretty simple to draw and its not an exact match where it would be if it was traced

 

it's ok man, he's not around anymore. you're allowed to hop off. wouldn't want to pull any muscles from doing too many tricks on it.
