dont u just love how people call you an idiot for watching a vid that u dont like and saying so in the comments and that you should only say nice things defeating the point of comments and freedom of speech
@ScarletteTheWolf12 Uhh... Actually, it's not. Seriously. Just learn to draw your own way, develop your own art style with practice, refer to others' work if need be, and there you go.
I would say how lame, lazy, and awful recolors are, but that would be PRETTY hypocritical on my part, considering I've made and adopted several recolors....but then again, I have no life. XDD
These aren't even the good kind of recolours (Before anyone asks, I'm talking the level of recolour where you're customising Transformers and he likes).
i just didan experiment on how longit takes to make a charater that has a bit of origanality took me the length of this video. pippy the koala a tomboy gardener who hates violance.
@GirtheAlienGoldfish I wasn't calling you annoying.That comment wasn't to you m'kay,friend.Thats's why I asked you to ignore it.Your probably a very nice person :) *gives cookie of choice* Have a nice day and keep on hating recolors.
Each time some one recolors it give us sonic fan artist a bad name oh sure Im not the best artist in the world but at least I Don't recolor....at least my OCs are original instead of a yellow Amy or a pink sonic
Actually, it's not illegal as they're not being used for profit
However it is very uncreative
Recolouring, as far as I'm concerned, is a acceptable starting point, I mean, I was a recolour 8 years ago (which, to be fair, Sonic online fan character communities were still new back then, so it was universally thought that recolouring was new and creative at the time), but naturally I've evolved my designs and the like
No point in reaching the first stepping stone and then setting up camp, right?
Ok every retard who thinks there Sonic recolors are original think about this: Those recolors of Sonic are the equivalent to me finding 1. an image of Leonardo DaVinci's Mona Lisa 2. Importing it into Microsoft Paint 3. Recoloring details 4. adding a hat or something stupid 5. and claiming it be my work. (Even if your not collecting any profit it's ART THEFT and is illegal.)
@awseomethehedgehog Because he is a recolor. Recolors are illegal. Had he made a believable original character that he drew in his own style, it would have been better.
@awseomethehedgehog Yeah...... Do you think I care little 5 year old? You're just as easy to make fun of as the kids on XBL or 4chan. Noob. And "Awesome" like I said, is a stupid, unrealistic, UNORIGINAL name. Now why don't you go fuck all the main characters you mary sue.
Recolors do suck. It's annoying how people always form a "tragic" backstory around them, and then pair them with a character. Unfortunately, recolors arentt limited to Sonic..
I guss recolors are acceptable if the creators are doing it out of sheer boredom or to have something to share with their friends and family, but if the creators recolor beloved or any characters out of seriousness and to officially demonstrate writing, animating, and creativity to a mass number of people, that's where things get unacceptable.
Honestly.recolors fucking suck.My brother recolors.I wanna kill him for it.I have my own character.I made her with a pen and a piece of paper. I've never recolored but one time someone recolored over my art and i was pissed.They steal art and don't even credit the person who originally made it.It takes like 5 minutes to recolor something.10 at the most.Recolors...Suck...fucking...balls.Thank you and have a good night.
I just re-watched this after like, a year, and I only just now understand the Sonichu reference. Thanks for making me spew diet soda all over my monitor.
Im going to say this before I continue with my comment, I don't do recolors, I make up my own original characters for my stories, but in my opinion, re-colors are fine UNLESS, listen I said "unless", they do not give credit to the original picture's artist. I don't like re-coloring, mainly because im leaning to draw my own art work, but I think that the re-colors are fine as long as they give credit to the original pictures artist and are not making money off of it, like someone said below.
Recolours aren't shit, they're ILLEGAL. Recolouring constitutes copyright infringement and possibly trademark/trade-dress infringement, assuming the characters and their likenesses are trademarked/trade-dressed.
Just look at Limbo of the Lost. It was a PC game that lifted many images from other video games, edited them slightly, and formed about 95% of the game's content. You should've seen the legal nightmare that came out of that one!
@ignika98 No. Claiming that a character is yours (even though it's simply a respray of another character that is trademarked/trade-dressed) is a form of copyright infringement known as trade-dress infringement (stealing a character's trademarked likeness known as trade-dress). The copyright owner can pursue legal action if they wanted to. Like I said, re-colours ARE illegal.
@DMXP100 Although, making money off of a re-colour is also illegal, and the owner can actually take the re-colourer to court for damages (making money off of a license that isn't actually their own). Although, this also applies to any kind of fan work in general.
@DMXP100 Kind of rediculous considering someone I've subscribed to got her video taken down showing the reference picture of Avatar she we using to paint her face. It was like a 5 sec of the Avatar pic, it got taken down and then you have recolors all over YouTube without a scratch other than some bad comments. Don't get me started on Sonichu; that was a creation that should never have been born! *facepalm*
@KawaiiKemonomimi That is strange. However, what I do know is that it's up to the discretion of the copyright owner to pursue an infringement case. Sometimes, they might pursue it, sometimes they won't. For recolours, they might not pursue; considering just how many there are, it would take too long and cost too much money to work on a case-by-case basis. Still, the threat of legal action does loom over recolours.
@KawaiiKemonomimi Just wanted to add in an important point that the "time, cost, and effort" factor is one of the most important factors in pursuing a case, especially money. If it costs more money to pursue a case than the costs that the infringing person would have to pay if the case was taken all the way, then there is no point in pursuing the case to begin with. This is also pretty valid in most legal proceedings as well.
@DMXP100 im have too recolord sonic mario soul eater and megaman on deviantart up a day say aguy that is illigal im delete all recloler im thit that im not happy they are cool and beutiful 1 was ulgy
@fancopy12 I'm sorry, what? Can you please spell your words properly? We don't live in the era where shortening words is "hip" anymore, except for texting (where it's practical). I'd answer your question if I could read it first; I don't speak gibberish.
@fancopy12 Also, I saw your channel and noticed you're from the Netherlands. If that's why you're English is broken then I apologize. I know that kids just getting onto the Internet will tend to butcher the English language.
@DMXP100 Agreed! It's a reprehensible violation of the copyright laws, which are totally respected, loved, and obeyed without question or complaint all across Youtube and beyond! Praise be to those wonderful copyright laws which we Youtube contributors obey in full!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to flame Blip for providing a safe haven for those treacherous movie reviewers who hide under their coward's banner of "fair use"! Infidels!
/Ah, sarcasm as parody. You've never steered me wrong.
@abridgedfanboy True, dat. While it's law, it's really fucking lax. That's why piracy is so prevalent; it's illegal, but too widespread to be effectively stopped.
Also, fair use is one thing. Respraying a character and claiming that they are yours is something else entirely, since it is still the original artist's character. How would it look to somebody who was colourblind?
@DMXP100 ...Oh shit, you're agreeing with my sarcasm. This is rather unprecedented. XDDDD
By that logic, shouldn't all reposts and reviews be considered on the chopping block, as it's effectively the same thing: using someone else's work and building upon it to create a "new" concept or idea? Now, recolors are obviously not as creative or innovative as, say, an AVGN review, but the law views them both in the same way. But hey, as long as the Recolors die.
@abridgedfanboy There's a difference there. I'm not exactly talking about concepts (unless they're patented). I'm talking about concrete images, or taking this particular image, recolouring it, and claiming it to be my own. Reposts might fall into the same category, unless the distinction is made that it isn't yours. With reviews, you can claim fair use, since that particular law protects commentaries (which reviews fall under).
@DMXP100 You and the law may see it that way, but the copyright holders do not. A Sonic recolor and a Nostalgia Critic review (on Youtube, anyway) are one and the same to them. Indeed, in their eyes the review would be WORSE, as it actually takes clips en masse to produce, whereas recolors are often single frames reworked for an amateur intent (as nobody actually makes money off of recolors.)
In short, don't be so quick to run to copyright when it's screwed over the Youtube community before. XD
@blackyonbi Maybe, but the blatant hypocrisy involved in screaming fair use one minute and demanding federal punishment the next is honestly just as bad to me. But then, I was never swept up in the deranged mania that is Sonic fandom, so perhaps that disgust falls on deaf ears.
@blackyonbi BTW, if recolors are "shit, unoriginal, and a lack of talent", then I highly recommend you ignore Sonic and train your crosshairs on Michael Bay. Say what you will about recolors, but at least they aren't making millions of dollars on literal on-screen shit, a far worse crime in my honest opinion.
well i have to say something about this war... IT CAN BE OK IF SOMEONE RECOLORS AND A NOTHER GUY DOESN'T IS THAT SO HARD TO UNDER STAND I MEAN WHAT THE F**K
Characters I made without recolors: Fang London, Motofumi Steinback, Jeffery (Jeff)Cook, Gared (Gary Martin, Sally Briscoe, Kyle Latford, Harvey Kobayashi, and Chantel Reed. I was guilty of taking people's work in the past, but I was in Jr. High. I'm older now. This guy obviously isn't.
Yes we could all be attempting to solve world hunger and make peace with each other, while you continue to sit on your ass and contribute nothing to society whatsoever. WHY DIDN'T I SEE THIS BEFORE, I'M SUCH AN IDIOT
@jjman65 Actually no, they're not. XD I'm pretty sure they're different models entirely. They probably re-used a few bits for a few of the models though. (muzzle and possibly body for Sonic, Shadow, and Silver) Otherwise I think they were all made individually from scratch. o3o
Recolors are original! I mean just because you're taking someone elses work and you're just coloring over it with a paint program dosn't mean it's unoriginal. I mean the work that shows effort isn't original. Work that you basically steal from is TRUE originallity! ....wait what?
i like recolors.and i dont give a fuck if you dont then i dont care.screw you all who are fighting about this crap EVERY SINGLE DAY i mean REALY!if you dont like it then gust dont go all mad just forget about it and get on with your fucking lives.wow.how retarted.you mother fuckers are wateing your lives by fighting.you were givein life and THIS is what you do with it?my GOD!i could kill you all!
Anyhow, on recolors, I would say they AN ABOMINATION to any franchise next to sicko hentai, over obsessive fantards, and all that sort of drama. Basically, if you can't CREATE a proper fancharacter because you are just TOO LAZY, then DON'T do it at all.
@Neinteen91 AAAAAMEN BROTHER! I watched up to the 21st chapter of the Sonichu audio book just so I could review the series, and I lost a degree of my sanity and intellect in the process.
@DemonicRemption We have had many mental and emotional casualties throughout the online Sonichu threat. Then again, even the retard Recolours don't seem to be supporting Sonichu, the trolling there is too heated, and it's spreading out into other recolour artists now.
@DemonicRemption Yeah, trust me, a lot of the trolls who deal with Chris are quite often the same trolls who may irk people like Bloodshot or VampiricSpektor from time to time. ; )
Okay this is funny as hell, but um...y'know everyone has to start somewhere when it comes to art, I dont like nor hate recolors but I still think that you are going a bit overboard, I make recolors, but my DeviantART shows that I draw too, so everyone has to start somewhere with art. Nothing against you OR ANYONE, but still...
I also noticed that the people who recolor act like asses, For example, Marnicx recolores one of the best spriter's sprites and no credit given, heck he even made Sonic into a recolor of him. What a Fuck he is.
somebody call whine one one, recolorer's gotta big case of butt-hurt, ooouuuah.

If it costs more money to pursue a case than the costs that the infringing person would have to pay if the case was taken all the way, then there is no point in pursuing the case to begin with. This is also pretty valid in most legal proceedings as well.

@fancopy12 I'm sorry, what? Can you please spell your words properly? We don't live in the era where shortening words is "hip" anymore, except for texting (where it's practical). I'd answer your question if I could read it first; I don't speak gibberish.

@DMXP100 Agreed! It's a reprehensible violation of the copyright laws, which are totally respected, loved, and obeyed without question or complaint all across Youtube and beyond! Praise be to those wonderful copyright laws which we Youtube contributors obey in full!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to flame Blip for providing a safe haven for those treacherous movie reviewers who hide under their coward's banner of "fair use"! Infidels!
/Ah, sarcasm as parody. You've never steered me wrong.

@abridgedfanboy True, dat. While it's law, it's really fucking lax. That's why piracy is so prevalent; it's illegal, but too widespread to be effectively stopped.
Also, fair use is one thing. Respraying a character and claiming that they are yours is something else entirely, since it is still the original artist's character. How would it look to somebody who was colourblind?
DMXP100 7 months ago
@DMXP100 ...Oh shit, you're agreeing with my sarcasm. This is rather unprecedented. XDDDD
By that logic, shouldn't all reposts and reviews be considered on the chopping block, as it's effectively the same thing: using someone else's work and building upon it to create a "new" concept or idea? Now, recolors are obviously not as creative or innovative as, say, an AVGN review, but the law views them both in the same way. But hey, as long as the Recolors die.
God I hate Sonic the Hedgehog.
abridgedfanboy 7 months ago
@abridgedfanboy There's a difference there. I'm not exactly talking about concepts (unless they're patented). I'm talking about concrete images, or taking this particular image, recolouring it, and claiming it to be my own. Reposts might fall into the same category, unless the distinction is made that it isn't yours. With reviews, you can claim fair use, since that particular law protects commentaries (which reviews fall under).
Also, so do I.
DMXP100 7 months ago
@DMXP100 You and the law may see it that way, but the copyright holders do not. A Sonic recolor and a Nostalgia Critic review (on Youtube, anyway) are one and the same to them. Indeed, in their eyes the review would be WORSE, as it actually takes clips en masse to produce, whereas recolors are often single frames reworked for an amateur intent (as nobody actually makes money off of recolors.)
In short, don't be so quick to run to copyright when it's screwed over the Youtube community before. XD

they are still shit, unoriginal and a lack of talent
blackyonbi 7 months ago
@blackyonbi Maybe, but the blatant hypocrisy involved in screaming fair use one minute and demanding federal punishment the next is honestly just as bad to me. But then, I was never swept up in the deranged mania that is Sonic fandom, so perhaps that disgust falls on deaf ears.
abridgedfanboy 7 months ago
@blackyonbi BTW, if recolors are "shit, unoriginal, and a lack of talent", then I highly recommend you ignore Sonic and train your crosshairs on Michael Bay. Say what you will about recolors, but at least they aren't making millions of dollars on literal on-screen shit, a far worse crime in my honest opinion.

I love how not only do the people who recolor are ovverreacting, but everyone is.
I mean, recolors are noobs. Everyone was at one point.
If they don't grow out of it after a certain amount of time, THEN you can go off at them.

@jjman65 Actually no, they're not. XD I'm pretty sure they're different models entirely. They probably re-used a few bits for a few of the models though. (muzzle and possibly body for Sonic, Shadow, and Silver) Otherwise I think they were all made individually from scratch. o3o

Recolors are original! I mean just because you're taking someone elses work and you're just coloring over it with a paint program dosn't mean it's unoriginal. I mean the work that shows effort isn't original. Work that you basically steal from is TRUE originallity! ....wait what?

Babality LMAO. That pun always crack me up!
Anyhow, on recolors, I would say they AN ABOMINATION to any franchise next to sicko hentai, over obsessive fantards, and all that sort of drama. Basically, if you can't CREATE a proper fancharacter because you are just TOO LAZY, then DON'T do it at all.
