Hey guys!

My apologies for those who commented and shared this painting! I had some random yet make-sense messages from angry Kpop fans from Korea.
I am a Kpop fan myself and I shouldve known how sensitive things could get with Kpop fans. Apparently they are mad because the legs in this painting look
just the same as a scene from a Red Velvet's Dumb Dumb music video. I absolutely used it as reference, even traced the outlines of the legs,
and shamelessly positioned it on to my scene. All these jazz? Perfectly Legal!

This is coming from an experienced illustrator in the industry. I remember freaking out about copyright stuff when I was a student thanks to this one
professor who only talked about how to protect your copyright. It is all good and important but let me tell you guys, copyright comes after you become
successful. Most likely lawsuits happen because you want the other person's money. Going through a lawsuit is time consuming and expansive. It becomes
only valuable when there is a certainty that he is entitled to make tens of thousands dollars by wining the case. Did you guys ever wonder how
one mobile game looks scarily similar to the other? Oh they know who copied who but why no lawsuits? It is because copyright laws and fair
use are tricky things. It is beyond me how Sakimichan is making all that money without lawsuits.

I am fixing this painting because I didn't want to offend any fans. They did say they love the game idea, they just hate the legs lol.
I want Year Of The Ladybug to be a community driven project and it is very important to me that I don't make the fans angry.
Anywho, I was too lazy to fix it, but I didn't want to delete the page, so I MIRRORED IT GASP!!
It has its charm doesn't it?

You know what..this could be a good puzzle stage.
As a player you have to go turn the girls head in the right order. Creepy
