The bottom picture was the first picture i ever uploaded to the wikia, i don't like it because of how it looks, i don't think that it shows that character correctly. The top picture pose originally was from a dress maker, however using apps such as photoshop fix, and autodesk sketch book pro, i erassed alot of the top picutre and redrawn certain parts. I think why all of the pircures look like they are directly from a dollmaker is becasue i use photoshop tools to make it look either more natually shaded/highlighted if you had looked closer at the picture for Emy, and the original dress up design, you will notice that the blouse is totally different, yet the shading makes it look more real. Since that character originally was a transfere from EAH, i wanted to keep a more realistic kind of look with her, howeover with Canine it was easier to make it look for like the Monster High art style becasue not alot of various shading is needed. IT is typically like just one shade color for the whole body, and that makes it look very similar to how the original monster high characters are. So you are correct in your previous message that i used the original body and slightly morphed it, using photoshop tools, most aspects are completly different, such as the colors, which were recolored in some instances, such as the glasses, boots, and earings. However the outfit is original.

This is my procedure for doing these, i DE-saturate the whole photo in photoshop fix (for ipad), that way it is all greyscale. Then i take a lighting tool, and mess with the lighting and shades of how i want. Then i export it Autodesk sketch book (for ipad) and i use the tools on that app to further edit. Usually i don't edit the body as much in autodesk. However i errase clothes and redraw them, and that is also where i begin coloring/shading. Then i re-export the photo back to photoshop fix and i contune the process from there, somtimes i have to export it back and forth from each app multiple times. I have spent many hours editing/redrawing/editing/redrawing. I wasn't going to argue with you about the rules or whatever, if you thought something was against policy, because i didn't want to get thrown out of the wiki. I'm just going to be honest and im not trying to be rude at all (sometimes being blunt is just easyer, and cutting the formatlities that i ususlly do so please don't take offense.  I am a national forenseics competator, and policy debater so sometimes i am just blunt, fyi, please don't be offended :D ) Anyways, lets be honest if you kick me out im just going to start another wiki or something or a blog or something with less rules, because TBH this site is all just for fun, and so many rules and regulations make it so much not fun. Like this makes it all so much easier to write OCs, and it makes it better too because it is a comunity where people can give feedback and ideas. But with all of these rules and regulations even the ones that arn't in the rules when i read them, im anxious because whenever i post something im afraid it will be taken down, and then how do i look. It seems like to everyone I am just someone who breaks the rules. I will admit that the seven pictures that i uploaded a few days ago, to my profil with the captions of 'Character Coming Soon' those were directly from dollmakers, however the Art from Canine that final art piece, the top picture in your message, i spent like a long time on, and i put tons of effort into it. So yes i do use many editing/drawing/art/photo enhansing apps, but that stuff should all be allowed if im just useing the base, and maybe a few other SMALL details. Art is somthing that is very subjective, and saying that im tracing stuff, (like i was accused on the EAH Fandom site, which is way i brought all my EAH characters over to the monster high page, as transfere students.  When the picture was real art and it was a water color painting, now i will admit that somtimes i do look at reference art, but who doesn't daVinci?? I mean hes dead, most modern artists at least start a form of art by looking at reference. Which is what i was doing, that picture that i was accused of tracing, was my first ever picture in that style and it WASN""T traced, however i was still accused and forced to take it down.) Anywyas, sorry i get off on tangents. Emy's picture did look like the original dress up, however you should also keep in mind that i did enhance/draw/edit that original photo to make her skin green, hair black, and dress pink! (which i get that is recloring), so i took that down, but then i edit/redrew/photoshopped the picture again. I earased the outfit (exept for the shoes becasue i liked those, but i did edit their form.  I redrew the outfit and now you accusing me of just recoloring the whole thing.  Shading for EAH chcaracters is so much harder than for Monster high characters.

So in conclusion the first picture in you message has the same body as the dress up doll that i created online, however, i have redrawn the picture, keeping the base body, redrawn clothing, revamping/redrawing shoes. And finally manipulated the whole original creation, to make it look like it would natually fit into the MonsterHigh Universe.

Thanks so much for reading this i know it is alot, but i hope i have clearly gotten my point across. Again, please don't take offense, the only frustration i have is with the EAH fandom page, it has nothing to do with you. I am really thankful that you have taken the time to help me. Again i am NOT meaning to be offensive, if I have been please let me know so i can apologize. Thanks for you help! and i hope i ansered your question.

Thankfully and Humbly,
