BINGO

Since this post will be current until January, thought I'd be salty/have fun with it. Let's see if we get Bingo, shall we?

This was the skin they wanted to auction, like it was said it isn't that blatant this time but after the first time they copied ado's skins I guess people notified ado and let them know, this is ado's skin most people were reminded of:

h a h, nah that's fairly obvious given their history with this stuff, I'd definitely say it's a copy since they've pulled this stuff before. Good on ado for speaking up but also oof at museum trying to pull the 'I'm being attacked and I don't like it' card.

I've known to avoid them beforehand, despite how pretty their skins have looked and how much I love their aesthetic, but now I'm just going to outright block them. Oof. I'd thought that they'd learned.

okay i don't see the resemblance here at all

its the same concept but we've been over this before. you can't corner an art concept on flightrising, the mods don't even enforce it

It's not about the skins concept, it's about Museum copying ado

Honestly I don't even like ado for other reasons but this is pretty clear stylistic copying. Again, it's not about the skin concept, but also the copying of technique; the way the jewelry drapes and wings fold and how lines and shading are done. A billion people have done wings, roses, eyes and jewelry for their accents, but Museum doesn't seem to have this flat/minimally shaded, uniform-line style for any of their other art (and they're literally an art student!). They're blatantly ripping off so many small details to the point where it isn't about the overarching concept, but the original ideas that ado has about those concepts—eye halos, eye markings on the wing tips, flower leaves that "float" and aren't attached to the flower, vertically hanging vine jewelry, even the way smoke is done. It's like taking a sentence straight from a book, not just ripping off the plot or characters. But anybody with eyes should be able to see that the copy is a pale version of the original, which is sad, because Museum clearly has great artistic skill in their own style.

I swear if people didn't see skins and accents as a "product" instead of a similar medium to freeform art this kind of copying wouldn't get defended so much.

People like you are the reasons FR skin artists quit when people begin copying them. "You can't corner an art concept" literally everyone knows that. There's multiple ways ado's designs could have been mimicked without it being a blatant copy. But if you have eyes and can see, the resemblance is way too similar. Try to understand from the artists' perspective, just a little bit.
