Hey man, As a designer who make logos & graphics for 15 years like the one you used, It's just sad to see you used it for your profit without the designers/illustrators permission, I understand that you just do the same thing like any other seller, but it is wrong and cannot be justified just because other people did it too. Your own design is not too bad, you just need to refine it little by little and you will get there eventually, it's just like what other designer experience it, they don't always come out great in first try. Maybe for you it's nothing, but my designs was stolen numerous times and i lost a lot of money because the thief sell them for very cheap price, even giving them out for free in a facebook group. At that time my son was sick and i was hustling here and there just to survive. They do it for almost two years and my income was barely covers groceries. i got depressed and almost commit to *%@! myself. Maybe you want to contemplate for one or two minutes before you execute, and remember small thing like that could be impactful for some people.

I understand where you are coming from but like I said it was just a reference image. What I didn't show in the video was me modifying and making changes to the image in photoshop. The end result was different from the original. As for you getting your designs stolen, that is very unfortunate but I'm not sure how that pertains to me. Its not like I'm reselling the logo. I modified a 2d image for my needs and then turned it into a 3D model. Which I didn't even list for sale. You can download it for free, it just so happens that I was able to monetize it from Makerworld points. Lastly, I completely understand the hustle and I understand how much it takes just to survive nowadays. It not easy, I understand that but having a victim mentality is the worst thing you can do. Stay positive my friend, work hard and good things will come your way.

It's a lot of connecting the dots based on what people have already shown they like to download. Hopefully, that makes some sense. I might make a video about this in the future. Also, I don't have a degree in engineering; I'm strictly self-taught. Thanks again for watching!

That's how most products are created, improving and innovating on other people's designs. The image was just a reference; I made changes in Photoshop and to the 3D model, of course. The 3D model is completely different from the original image. By your logic, lots of 3D modelers would be "stealing." Just look at all the Pokémon, Disney, cosplay, and Mario designs out there. Not to mention any other designs that use a reference image. (Which is a lot.) Very few models are truly unique; inspiration has to come from somewhere.

The video gave an impression that you didn't change anything when it comes to the image and simply imported it to fusion also i dont agree, there's a big diference between tracing somebody's work and basically extruding it with minor changes and having a reference, the later involves creative changes to the design EDIT: if you have changed the og image then i obviously have no problem with the video, its just that the video gave me a wrong impression
